碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 經營管理研究所 === 93 === This research studies fifty high-tech zones in mainland China in 2000. Numbers of enterprise and labor are the two inputs. Technological revenues, product sales revenues, and commodity sales revenues are the three outputs. The data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach is used to compute the efficiency of each high-tech zone. Our main findings are as follows: 1. Most technology-type high-tech zones are in the east area abundant with many academic institutes and skilled labor, among which Beijing, Shenyang, and Guangzhou perform the best. 2. Production-type high-tech zones are in areas with better facilities and higher population densities, among which Shanghai, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, and Foshan perform the best. 3. Sales-type high-tech zones are in areas with convenient transportation, among which Wuxi, Qingdao, and Chengdu perform the best. 4. Most inland high-tech zones have high pure technical efficiencies but lack scale efficiencies due to insufficient production scales.
