Politics of Difference in Taiwan. Pp. 181-207. London and New York: Routledge. 2 Assessing (Multi)culturalism through Public Art Practices Anru Lee and Perng-juh Peter Shyong This chapter investigates the issue of multiculturalism through public art practices in Taiwan. Specifically, we focus on the public art project of the Mass 14Rapid Transit System in Kaohsiung (hereafter, Kaohsiung MRT), and examine how the discourse of multiculturalism intertwines with the discourse of public art that informs the practice of the latter. Multiculturalism in this case is considered as an ideological embodiment of the politics of difference, wherein our main concern is placed on the ways in which different constituencies in Kaohsiung respond to the political-economic ordering of Kaohsiung in post-Second World War Taiwan and to the challenges Kaohsiung City faces in the recent events engendering global economic change. We see the Kaohsiung MRT public art project as a field of contentions and its public artwork as a ‘device of imagination’ and ‘technique of representation’ (see Ngo and Wang in this volume).

  • The CIB W062 36Th International Symposium Water Supply and Drainage for Buildings
    Investigation of public toilet facility in MRT station (1) W.J.Liao, Ms. (2) C.L. Cheng, Dr. (3) K.C. He, Dr. (4) M.H.Wu , Dr. (1)[email protected] (2)[email protected] (3)[email protected] (1) (2) (3) (4) National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Department of Architecture, 43 Keelung Road Sec.4, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. Abstract “Toilet”, an indispensible facility of architecture in modern people’s life, has reflected civilian hygienic habit, civic-minded standard, aesthetic consciousness, overall educational level of a nation and national economic development. A well-established public toilet should meet many basic needs like safety, convenience, pleasing to the eye, saving resources, and hygiene etc. Later on, this study not only explores every basic functional requirement what public toilets of MRT stations should have, but analyze and discuss the functions of pleasing to the eye, comfort, energy saving, environmental protection, humanization, and design being used universally etc. Hopefully there will be more complete, convenient and comfortable service space of sanitary toilets provided. Users’ need can be satisfied as well. Meanwhile, the management authority can reduce the management cost of every item. The workload for cleaning and maintenance personnel can be lessened to fulfill the objective of need in every aspect. This study plans to collect fundamental examples of cases for public toilets both in domestic and foreign MRT stations. The later goal will be aimed at knowing the use condition and current setup status of already built public toilets for domestic MRT stations.

In order to increase the service capacity efficiency on check-in, security checks, and customs clearance, the Ministry of Transportation and Communications R.O.C. (MOTC), Taiwan, rerouted the airport traffic flow by implementing the in-town check-in (ITCI) concept to decrease crowding in the airport waiting hall. This research examined the structure of critical success factors (CSFs) for ITCIs, deriving three hierarchies of three dimensions, eight criteria, and 18 evaluation indexes from the previous literature, expert interviews, and analysis results from Analytic Network Process (ANP) via Super Decisions software. The three CSF dimensions were: first- level hierarchy “advantageous environments,” followed by “marketing” and “service value,” which is a second-level hierarchy. The study concluded that the third level item of “transferred vehicles system and management” can play an important key role in ITCTs and “users’ usage preference” has a high correlation to ITCT management strategy.

  • Improving the Transfer Flow of the Taipei Metro System for Route
    Chang, J.Y. & Yang, H.L. (2018). Improving the transfer flow Chang & Yang of the Taipei metro system for route development: Using open data of the origin and destination station. In Proceedings of The 18th International Conference on Electronic Business (pp. 766- 772). ICEB, Guilin, China, December 2-6. Improving the Transfer Flow of the Taipei Metro System for Route Development: Using Open Data of the Origin and Destination Station (Work in Progress) Jui-Yen Chang*, National Chengchi University, Taiwan, [email protected] Heng-Li Yang, National Chengchi University, Taiwan, [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper has presented a decision model for optimizing route allocation with linear programming in the Taipei Metro system. The goal is to avoid centralization of a passenger in certain transfer stations, which means that some transfer stations are overloaded, whereas some transfer stations may be nearly empty. This study applies the open data of origin and destination station to solve this problem. Specifically, through a direct computational comparison of the objective function value and statistical analysis between our proposed model and the existing route development, it confirms that our route development would achieve a reduction of ridership transfer flow of approximately 15% in this case. Keywords: Taipei Metro System, Linear Programming, Open Data Analytics. _____________________ *Corresponding author INTRODUCTION AND LITERATURE REVIEW The Taipei Metro, also known as the Taipei Mass Rapid Transit (MRT), began running back in 1996. It is the most important means of public transportation serving the metropolis of Taipei, Taiwan. Currently, the Metro system comprises 108 stations (123 if transfer stations are double-counted), five main routes, and two branch lines.
