Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 商學研究所 === 81 === Intellectual property rights(IPRs) is one of the most important issues today in Taiwan after it has become a developed country. Because of the fast progress in computer technology, the disputes over ignorance of IPRs in the computer
industry are heating up. This research aims on finding out how IPRs are viewed by the R&D personnel from the computer industry, by personal interviews and mail survey. The results of the study presented as follows :
1.The perception of legislation and implementation of IPRs.
Generally speaking, most of R&D personnel do not have much
confidence in the legislation and implementation of
IPRs, especially regarding the technical ability of the
people who are responsible for these tasks.
2.The personal interests versus professional ethics. Although
most of the R&D personnel care about the recognition of their
peers, they consider their personal interests before the
professional ethics. The above results are statistically
significant for the R&D personnel with the variables of
high education, 3-5 years seniority, or working in a big
company. To handle the disputes over IPRs effectively, and
to promote the international image of Taiwan, we have
to set up more forward-looking protection regulations of
IPRs and make them authoritative. The computer industry
should extend their vision topursue long-term benefit
instead of short-term gains. Finally, emphasis on ethics
between company and the R&D personnel is one of the best ways
to protectIPRs.
