With a genre analysis and discussion of linguistic features of these abstracts, the paper points out the weak points in the abstracts by Chinese writers and provides some suggestions for writing abstracts of medical research articles展开更多

The idea is to benchmark maturity levels with the leading Finnish international companies. The examination has been done in compliance with applied maturity model developed by the target corporation. When examining the benchmarked companies through the ESSQ framework, we found that a similar framework cannot be found in any other company as such; instead, operations are distributed under different organisations. Although many sources criticise system-based development, the results of this study indicate that it is nevertheless an efficient way to develop operations.展开更多

The emergence of homegrown assemblers strengthened fierce competition for all assemblers and resulted in the spreading of regional auto production networks with linkage to leading international automakers. This move integrated China's major regional production into the global chain and speeded up technology spillovers in the automobile industry. The paper reveals how the relationships between homegrown makers and joint ventures have been coordinated within the framework of local production networks, which turn out to have a highly localized production capacity. Furthermore, the results stand testimony for the fact that China's auto industry is becoming competitive through learning-by-doing. In the future outlook, the growing economy in China will be the most influential driving force to shift the global auto industry into China, which will turn out to be a super auto giant in the coming decade.展开更多
