    2016 International Conference on Computer, Mechatronics and Electronic Engineering (CMEE 2016) ISBN: 978-1-60595-406-6 Study on Input Measuring Method of Government Public Resources in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Regions Ya-wei JIANG1, Hua-li CAI1,* and Ji-rong NING3 1China National Institute of Standardization, Beijing. China 2The Standardization Institute of Xinjiang, Xinjiang, China *Corresponding author Keywords: Public resources input, Z-score standardization, Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei regions. Abstract. Public resources are of external features as the services provided by the government. Scientific and rational distribution of public resources could drive industry development, promote the process of urbanization and increase human capital. More importantly, it can make economic development fruits equally shared by the public and help the achievement of the current goals of China in terms of reform and development. This paper, by using Z-score standardization method, conducts non-dimensional processing of statistical indexes concerning public resources input, enables the level of public resources input in different regions to be quantified and calculated, and measures the input intensity coefficients of public resources in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei regions. Introduction Public resources are of external features as the services provided by the government. Rational input of public resources could promote urbanization process, quicken the adjustment of industry structure, guide governments’ input into key industries and increase human capital, thus producing a significant impact on the economy [1]. As an important national strategy, the integration of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Regions could promote equal access to public services in these regions, effectively ensure economic development fruits to be equally shared by the public and help the achievement of the current goals of China in terms of reform and development.

  • Spatial Evolution of Urban Expansion in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei Coordinated Development Region

However, the urban expansion characteristics, types and trends, and spatial coevolution (including urban land, GDP, and population) have not been well investigated in the existing research studies. This study presents a new spatial measure that describes the difference of the main trend direction. In addition, we also introduce a new method to classify an urban expansion type based on other scholars. The results show the following: (1) The annual urban expansion area (UEA) in Beijing and Tianjin has been ahead of that in Hebei; the annual urban expansion rate (UER) gradually shifted from the highest in megacities to the highest in counties; the high–high clusters of the UEA presented an evolution from a “seesaw” pattern to Citation: Tang, Z.; Zhang, Z.; Zuo, L.; a “dumbbell” pattern, while that of the UER moved first from Beijing to Tianjin and eventually Wang, X.; Zhao, X.; Liu, F.; Hu, S.; Yi, L.; Xu, J.
