    Strategic Research on Construction and Promotion of China’s Intelligent Cities Yunhe Pan Strategic Research on Construction and Promotion of China’s Intelligent Cities General Report Strategic Research on Construction and Promotion of China’s Intelligent Cities Editor-in-chief Yunhe Pan, Chinese Academy of Engineering, Beijing, China This book series is the first in China on “Intelligent City” research, with systematic and thorough contributions from more than 200 Chinese experts including 47 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE) in related fields. The book series is co-published with Zhejiang University Press, Hangzhou, China and consists of 13 volumes as planned, including one general report and 12 sector reports. In 2010, CAE conducted a research on the development of “smart cities” and concluded that urban development in China has reached a crucial turning point. Therefore, CAE kicked off the key consultancy research project on “Strategic Research on Construction and Promotion of China’s Intelligent Cities”, on which this book series is based. Firsthand and research results, surveys and analysis are provided on almost every aspect of urban development and smart cities in this series. Representing the highest level of research in this field in China, the book series will offer an authoritative reference resource for international readers, helping them to understand intelligent city construction in China, a movement expected to be highly influential around the globe.

    PRINCETON UNIVERSITY: Woodrow Wilson School, Politics Department, East Asian Studies Program CONTEMPORARY CHINA: A BOOK LIST by Lynn White Autumn 2000 Edition This will be available on the web at Lynn's homepage: http://www.wws.princeton.edu/~lynn/Chinabib.pdf, which can be viewed and printed with an Adobe Acrobat Reader. Variant font sizes cause pagination of the web version to differ slightly from the paper edition. This list of items in English has several purposes: --to help advise students' course essays, junior papers, policy workshops, and senior theses about contemporary China; --to supplement the required reading lists of the seminars WWS 576a/Pol. 536 on "Chinese Development" and Pol. 535 on "Chinese Politics," as well as the lecture course, Pol. 362, for which students may find books to review in this long list; --to provide graduate students with a list that can help their study for exams in Chinese politics; a few of the compiler's favorite books are starred on the list, but not much should be made of this, because some such books may be old or the subjects may not be central to present interests; --to supplement a bibliography of all Asian serials in the Princeton Libraries that was compiled long ago by Frances Chen and Maureen Donovan. Students with research topics should definitely meet the WWS Librarian in Wallace and Rosemary Little in Firestone. For materials in Chinese and other languages, see Martin Heijdra in Gest Library. Professional bibliographers are the most neglected major academic resource at Princeton. Visit them! This list cannot cover articles, but computer databases do so, and the librarians know them.

  • FROM RIDING a WAVE to FULL STEAM AHEAD As China’S Government Mobilizes for AI Leadership, Some Challenges Will Be Tougher Than Others
    February 28, 2018 FROM RIDING A WAVE TO FULL STEAM AHEAD As China’s Government Mobilizes for AI Leadership, Some Challenges Will Be Tougher Than Others By Paul Triolo and Jimmy Goodrich The Chinese government has set high ambitions for national development in artificial intelligence technologies. Its July 2017 New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan (AIDP), translated by DigiChina, set the attention-grabbing goal of building China into the “world’s primary AI innovation center” by 2030. Well before the government set targets, Chinese tech giants had invested great time and treasure in AI technology development, but now the bureaucracy is lurching into motion to support an effort far broader than the coattails of industry leaders. This essay, by two experienced analysts of Chinese digital technology development, chronicles the government’s initial efforts to achieve its declared goals, assesses Chinese potentials in core AI technologies, and anticipates the coming efforts by government and private actors. –Ed. About DigiChina New America’s DigiChina project is a collaborative effort to understand China’s digital policy developments, primarily through translating and analyzing Chinese-language sources. How the Chinese state and society deploy and use digital technologies is increasingly consequential for governance, markets, and security around the world. From laws and regulations to published commentaries from policymakers and corporate strategies, China’s public sphere provides a great deal of insight into what’s happening and why. DigiChina contributors, working collaboratively with industry and policy experts around the globe, work innovatively to bring that insight to an international audience and better inform important debates and decisions.

    MANAGING POST-MERGER INTEGRATION: A CASE STUDY OF A MERGER IN CHINESE HIGHER EDUCATION by Yinmei Wan A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctoral of Philosophy (Education) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Professor Marvin W. Peterson, Chair Professor Kim S. Cameron Associate Professor Janet H. Lawrence Assistant Professor Michael N. Bastedo © Yinmei Wan 2008 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The completion of this dissertation and this degree has been a long and arduous process, extending over more years than I initially expected. I am very fortunate to have so many people who have supported me through this journey. To them, I am forever grateful. First, the members of my dissertation committee: Marv Peterson, Kim Cameron, Jan Lawrence, and Michael Bastedo. I thank them all for their patience and their willingness to share their wisdom and experiences. Most of all, I would like to thank Marv Peterson, my committee chair. I thank him for being a teacher, advisor, mentor, and a friend to me for the last six or so years. His advice has been crucial to this project as well as to my entire academic pursuit at the University of Michigan. I consider myself extremely lucky to have been under his tutelage for all these years. I also would like to thank Zhejiang University that agreed to be included in this study. I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to Mr. Gu Jianmin at the Institute of Higher Education of Zhejiang University, who acted as my onsite coordinator for this study and offered me all other kinds of assistance and help during my field trip.
