Research on Education Method of Invation and Entrepreneurship for Egineering Ma-jor of U niversity in the ‘Internet plus’ ageJianchuan WUElectromechanic Engineering College, Southwest Petroleum UniversityAbstract:Innovation is the spirit for one nation’s advancing and the permanent motivation for one country’s prospering. Universities are shouldering the mission of talents cultivation and serving for the society and represent the hope. Education of innovation and entrepreneurship for engineering major of university plays a key role in the development of society. After the General Office of the State Council issued the Document No.36, Education of innovation and entrepreneurship is be-coming a social hot spot. This paper, analyzed the background of the times, studied the educational method of innovation and entrepreneurship for engineering major of university in the ‘Internet plus’ age, guided for the education of innovation and entrepreneurship for engineering major of university, stimulated the creativity for the students of engineering major of university.Key words:Engineering Major in University; Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education; Target of Talents CultivationThe education of innovation is time-honoured and the education of entrepre-neurship is not a new vocabulary. The UNESCO has proposed the concept of innovation education and regarded it as ‘the third education passport’ besides aca-demic competence and professional competence in 21th century. The education of innovation and entrepreneurship in our country started very late. It has gone thro-ugh 20 years from studying the significance of the education of innovation and en-trepreneurship to the integrating of innovation and entrepreneurship. After Premier About the author: Jianchuan WU, Male, January, 1988, Han, Dazhou City, Sichuan Prov-ince Experimenter, Master, Research on Teaching and Educational Administration in Colleg-es and Universities.Creativity and Innovation Vol.3 No.1 2019Li Keqiang refer ‘double creation’ to the height of national development strategy in March 2015, the education of innovation and entrepreneurship in our country en-tered the ‘Internet plus’ age. If the educational method of innovation and entrepre-neurship cannot match the age, it will not meet the higher requirement of talents of innovation and entrepreneurship cultivation for knowledge economy. The students of engineering major of university lead the trend of social entrepreneurship, so the education of innovation and entrepreneurship for them is of great significance. This article, researched on the characteristic of the students of engineering major of university, begin at talents cultivation target of engineering major, studied out the educational method of innovation and entrepreneurship for engineering major of university in the ‘Internet plus’ age, put forwards the reference to the education of innovation and entrepreneurship in new age and met the internal needs of social development.1. The significance of education of innovation and entrepreneurrshipThe education of innovation and entrepreneurship contribute much to the de-velopment of country. The innovation and entrepreneurship education in the United States guides entrepreneurship and becomes an important part of employment set-tlement in the United States. Other developed countries are also relying on innova-tive entrepreneurship education to solve the problem of social employment. After entering the “Internet plus” period, innovation and entrepreneurship education is a way to deepen the comprehensive reform of higher education and stimulating the creativity of college students. It can not only upgrade the quality and efficiency of service economy, but also promote the quality of entrepreneurship and employment of college students. Therefore, both the Party and our country attach great im-portance to it.General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that the realization of the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation must firmly follow the path of in-dependent innovation with Chinese characteristics at the National Conference on Science and Technology Innovation in May 2016. He also puts forward the im-portance of the quality education, future career development and grasping the op-portunity of global scientific and technological competition. Premier Li Keqiang also put forward in his important instructions on education in 2016 that modern vocational education should be vigorously developed, to cultivate more practical and high-skilled talents, innovative talents and top-notch talents, and play a key supporting role in building a well-off society. Liu Y andong emphasized that we should speed up the implementation of innovation-driven development strategy,Research on Education Method of Invation and Entrepreneurship for Egineering Major ofUniversity in the ‘Internet Plus’age deepen the reform of innovation and entrepreneurship education in universities, promote the all-round development of students, promote the combination of indus-try, education and research, and provide strong support for the promotion of mass entrepreneurship, innovation and the construction of an innovative country in ac-cordance with the decision-making and deployment of the Central Committee of the Party and the State Council in his investigation in Hubei.2. Characteristics of College Students Majoring in Engi-neeringEngineering specialty refers to a special specialty specializing in engineering education developed on the basis of applied mathematics, physics, chemistry and other basic sciences. It combined with the technical experience accumulated in the production practice and practice, in order to meet the needs of production and other industries. At present, engineering majors in universities in China are still deeply influenced by traditional education. It measures everything with course scores. More graduates are trained to adapt to employment. Therefore, engineering majors generally show that they attach importance to the study of theoretical knowledge and despise innovation and entrepreneurship. Most students have intellectual strengths, strong logical ability and active thinking. However, there are obvious deficiencies in language expression, social management and public relations plan-ning.3. Current problems in innovation and entrepreneurship education of engineering majors in universitiesDue to the late start of innovation and entrepreneurship education in China, there is no complete model for innovation and entrepreneurship education of engi-neering major in universities. Universities mostly adopt some existing models abroad to copy mechanically and rigidly. However, the existing abroad models cannot fully adapt to Chinese higher education and target of talents cultivation of Chinese universities. On the other hand, there is no rich curriculum system to sup-port the target of school in the process of entrepreneurship education. What is more, when universities carry out innovation and entrepreneurship education, whether in quantity or quality, most colleges and universities do not have enough teachers. The existing teachers’ qualifications cannot meet the needs of education. First of all, the decision makers do not know where the innovation and entrepreneurship education path of engineering universities lies. Secondly, even if innovation and entrepre-neurship education is carried out in accordance with national policies, teachers inCreativity and Innovation Vol.3 No.1 2019universities cannot meet the teaching requirements. Thirdly, universities have not created an atmosphere of innovation and entrepreneurship education. On engineer-ing majors in universities, the problem of innovation and entrepreneurship educa-tion is more obvious. Teachers or policymakers set development goals mostly in-fluenced by one-sidedness of understanding, which results in setting goals for quick success and instant benefit. They pursue the current paper project data, but ignore the essence of innovation and entrepreneurship education in engineering majors. Innovation and entrepreneurship education is not only for cultivating college entre-preneurs, but also for ideological education, entrepreneurship awareness education and quality of innovation and entrepreneurship.4. Research on innovation and entrepreneurship education and talents cultivation methodThe importance of innovation and entrepreneurship education in universities is analyzed. Where the problems of innovation and entrepreneurship education in Colleges and universities come from is known. But more importantly, it is neces-sary to explore innovative entrepreneurship education methods, which is suitable for engineering majors in universities. Starting from the talents cultivation target of engineering major in universities, engineering majors in universities is to cultivate innovative talents of engineering technology application for the society. The estab-lishment of any educational model, neglecting this goal, is not perfect enough, or even seriously missing.(1)Define the connotation of innovation and entrepreneurship educationThere are differences between innovative education and entrepreneurship ed-ucation. Innovative education is the content of quality education and its basic value orientation is to cultivate people’s innovative consciousness, spirit and ability. En-trepreneurship education is a process education, a process of value generation, in-crease, realization and renewal. Innovation and entrepreneurship education are dif-ferent but also related. We cannot ignore innovation to talk about entrepreneurship. They are inseparable. Innovation and entrepreneurship education refers to the cul-tivation of ideological qualities and humanistic qualities related to innovation and entrepreneurship, such as will and perseverance, research spirit, pioneering spirit, dedication, career spirit, self-confidence and psychological endurance. Innovation and entrepreneurship education in engineering majors in universities pays more at-tention to engineering education and practical education. It pays more attention to the cultivation of college students’ entrepreneurship ability and entrepreneurship skills, especially how to make use of engineering students’ professional and tech-Research on Education Method of Invation and Entrepreneurship for Egineering Major ofUniversity in the ‘Internet Plus’agenical expertise to carry out scientific and technological entrepreneurship.(2)Searching for reasonable teachersMost of the teachers who are engaged in innovation and entrepreneurship in engineering majors in universities are teachers in school. But what these teachers have in common is that most of them have no entrepreneurial experience. There are too many examples of teaching after attending one or two training courses. These teachers can summarize the rules of innovation and entrepreneurship. But it is one-sided to carry out innovation and entrepreneurship education, which cannot be landed, or even not recognized by students. Universities can use their alumni re-sources to invite excellent alumni back for lectures or invite them back for lectures. They can use their own experience to present themselves. In this way, students will naturally connect with themselves when they receive knowledge and see successful models similar to themselves. They will also consider entrepreneurship more when making decisions about entrepreneurship and employment in the future. In addition, when recruiting alumni, universities can also obtain alumni’s resources to find suitable practice bases for students, so that students can make rational use of their knowledge in practice, understand their knowledge shortcomings, and lay a solid foundation for better employment and entrepreneurship in the future.(3)Adjusting the teaching content of innovation and entrepreneurshipInnovation and entrepreneurship education curriculum cannot be regarded as a general basic curriculum, at least inappropriate, not to mention as an optional course. Innovation and entrepreneurship education should set up different types of courses for different majors. Different majors have different characteristics. Even if they are all engineering majors, their cultivation targets and teaching contents are quite different. The demand for different professionals varies widely in society. In order to do a good job in innovation and entrepreneurship education of engineering majors in universities, it is necessary to have a deep understanding of each engi-neering major, the characteristics of each major student, the talent requirements of each major, and the specific curriculum of innovation and entrepreneurship educa-tion for different majors and different contents to meet the requirements of the de-velopment of the times.(4)Establish the innovation and entrepreneurship databaseEntering the ‘Internet plus’ era, innovation and entrepreneurship competitions are endless. Led by the ‘Internet plus’ innovation and entrepreneurship competition, the petroleum technology innovation and entrepreneurship competition and various majors also have competitions for their own professional characteristics, such as process equipment design competition, mechanical innovation design competition,Creativity and Innovation Vol.3 No.1 2019electronic technology training contest, etc. In order to truly achieve the goal of “pro-moting learning and creating by competition”, university innovation and entrepre-neurship database should be established according to different grades. In the data-base, not only the competition manual made according to the specific requirements of each competition, but also the skills required for each competition should be counted. Students begin to enter the database from the first year of the university. At first, the knowledge interest database, the basic knowledge database of the first exam, and then the skill Library of the later learning software, such as the two -dimensional software, three -dimensional design software, analysis software, animation produc-tion software and so on, can get into the library if scored more than 85. For teachers, teachers’ qualifications and projects are also counted. What skills are needed to complete each project are publicized on the Internet, so that teachers’ students’ competitions and research projects can be found in the first time, and the database is updated and supplemented every semester. The phenomenon that teachers cannot find suitable students and students cannot display their talents will disappear.Database of engineering major in universities(5) Creating a healthy educational atmosphere for innovation and entre-preneurship.Healthy atmosphere of innovation and entrepreneurship refers to encouraging entrepreneurship and tolerating failure. This is not only related to universities, but also to students’ families. It is necessary to establish “home -school linkage”. If students’ entrepreneurship can be encouraged and supported by universities and families, it will be twice the result with half the effort. Universities should actively publicize the innovation and entrepreneurship policies of the government and uni-ParticipationParticipate Study Competition Teachers Teaching Junior students Major 1 Relevant competitions Teacher qualifications Help Consult Major 2 Relevant competitions Teachers currently own projects Major 3 Relevant competitions Competitions and pr - oject thatSenior students Major …Relevant competitionsStudentsResearch on Education Method of Invation and Entrepreneurship for Egineering Major ofUniversity in the ‘Internet Plus’age versities and provide incubation bases and funds for students. Families should un-derstand students and be open to entrepreneurship. As the backstage of students innovation and entrepreneurship, if the universities can provide venues, equipment and funds, students’ experiments, training plans and projects will run better.5. Closing remarksIt can be seen that with the development and progress of the economy and so-ciety, the take-off of the global economy and the advent of the ‘Internet plus’ age, the complexity and diversity of engineering technology have begun to increase, and the creativity of engineering talents is particularly important. The innovation and entrepreneurship education methods of engineering majors in universities need to be constantly developed and improved along with the reform. In the age of ‘Inter-net plus’, the exploration of innovation and entrepreneurship education for engi-neering majors in universities has great practical significance for training innova-tive talents in the future economic development.Works Cited[1] Song Zhishuai. “Research on Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education Model inEngineering Universities”.

科技创新是社会生产力发展得源泉英文作文

科技创新是社会生产力发展得源泉英文作文

科技创新是社会生产力发展得源泉英文作文Technological Innovation: The Awesome Fuel for Progress!Hi there! My name is Emma and I'm a 4th grader who loves learning about all the cool new technologies being invented. I find it fascinating how human creativity and ingenuity keep coming up with innovative tools and machines that make our lives better. Technological advancement is the driving force behind the development of our society's productive capabilities over time. Let me tell you all about it!First off, what exactly is technology? Technology refers to all the amazing tools, machines, techniques and systems that humans have created to make work easier and more efficient. From the humble wheel and pulley systems of ancient times to today's mind-blowing smartphones, computers and rockets - technology has transformed how we live and work. Innovative technologies allow us to produce more goods with less effort, which is the key to increasing our productive forces as a society.One of the earliest and most important technological breakthroughs was the invention of agriculture around 12,000 years ago. Instead of spending all their time hunting and gathering food, our ancestors began cultivating crops anddomesticating animals. Agricultural technology like plows, irrigation systems and selective breeding allowed communities to reliably produce surplus food. This laid the foundation for towns, cities and civilizations to develop as people had more free time for other productive activities besides just finding food to survive.The introduction of machinery during the Industrial Revolution starting in the 1700s was another game-changing technological leap. Inventions like the steam engine, spinning jenny, and assembly line manufacturing turbocharged productivity in industries like textile production, transportation and factory output. Machines could accomplish in a day what would take an individual months or years of laborious manual work. The explosive growth of industrial technology ushered in the modern age of mass production and economic abundance that we enjoy today.But technological progress didn't stop there - the 20th century witnessed an mind-boggling array of scientific and engineering breakthroughs. Airplanes, automobiles, phones, radio, television, computers, the internet, nuclear power, space travel and so much more revolutionized how we live, work, communicate and move across the globe. Thanks to theseamazing innovations, productive output skyrocketed to unimaginable heights compared to previous eras. Entire new industries like aviation, telecommunications and information technology were born.Just think about how computers and the internet have totally transformed work over just the past few decades. Tasks that once required huge amounts of human labor like data entry, calculations and information management can now be done at lightning speed by digital tools. Online platforms and automation software allow companies to market, sell and deliver products/services to global audiences with incredibly efficiency. And developments in fields like robotics, artificial intelligence, renewable energy, biotechnology and 3D printing are shaping up to be the next big game-changers in the years ahead.Throughout history, the spark of human imagination along with our ability to invent practical tools has been the prime driving force lifting our civilization's productive capabilities to ever-higher levels. From the earliest stone tools to themind-bending technologies emerging today, innovation has consistently allowed us to do more with less effort. It multiplies the productive power of human labor in amazing ways. My favorite example is simply comparing the massive effort it tookto construct something like the Egyptian pyramids using just primitive tools and manual labor versus what we can build today with modern machinery, engineering know-how and advanced construction methods.Societies that embrace technological progress and have a culture encouraging creativity tend to flourish and raise their people's living standards. On the other hand, civilizations stuck in stagnation with an unreceptive attitude towards new ideas tend to stall economically and productively. The contrasting fates of countries that whole-heartedly joined the Industrial Revolution versus those that wanted to cling to old ways is a clear case study of this principle in action.So in summary, our ability as humans to innovate and develop new technologies has been the catalyst allowing our productive forces to keep advancing decade after decade, century after century. The positive chain reaction goes like this: A new invention leads to more efficient production methods which frees up resources and labor that can then be invested into developing other innovative goods/services and so on in a virtuous cycle of progress. While individual inventions may sometimes cause disruptions, the overall big picture trajectory isone of technological change driving higher societal productivity over the long run.Of course, I have to mention that along with the incredible benefits, some new technologies have also created challenges for society in terms of things like environmental damage, automation displacing certain jobs and potential ethical issues around new areas like genetic engineering or artificial intelligence. But I'm an optimist who believes that human ingenuity and wisdom will find ways to responsibly manage these challenges just like we've navigated through difficulties sparked by past revolutionary technologies.After all, our curiosity to understand how the world works combined with our creative drive to innovate are two of the defining traits that make humans such an amazingly productive species! As long as we keep nurturing a culture of education, open-mindedness, and entrepreneurial spirit, I'm confident new waves of technological advancement will keep elevating our collective abilities to higher and higher levels. Bring on the innovations - I can't wait to see what awesome technologies are in store for us next!。

Information Systems and Technology

Information Systems and Technology

Information Systems and Technology Information Systems and Technology play a critical role in today's interconnected world, shaping the way we work, communicate, and live our lives. From the devices we use to the software that powers them, technology has become an integral part of our daily existence. However, with the constant evolution of technology, there are a multitude of challenges and issues that arise, impacting individuals, businesses, and society as a whole. One of the prominent problems in Information Systems and Technology is the issue of cybersecurity. As technology advances, so do the methods and tactics of cybercriminals. The increasing interconnectedness of devices and systems has created vulnerabilities that can be exploited, leading to data breaches, identity theft, and financial loss. This not only poses a threat to individuals but also to businesses and even national security. The need for robust cybersecurity measures has never been more pressing, and it requires a concerted effort from both the public and private sectors to address this growing concern. Another significant problem is the rapid pace of technological advancement, which often outpaces our ability to adapt and integrate these innovations effectively. This can lead to a digital divide, where certain segments of the population are left behind due to a lack of access or understanding of new technologies. This issue is particularly prevalent in developing countries, where access to Information Systems and Technology is limited, creating disparities in education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. Bridging this gap requires not only technological infrastructure but also investment in digital literacy and skills development. Moreover, the ethical implications of Information Systems and Technology are a pressing concern. The collection and use of personal data, algorithmic biases, and the impact of automation on the workforce are just a few examples of the ethical dilemmas that arise in this field. As technology continues to permeate every aspect of our lives, it is crucial to consider the ethical implications of its use and ensure that itis aligned with the values and principles of society. This requires a thoughtful and inclusive approach that involves stakeholders from diverse backgrounds and perspectives. Furthermore, the issue of technological obsolescence presents a challenge for both individuals and organizations. With the rapid pace ofinnovation, devices and systems can quickly become outdated, leading to compatibility issues, security vulnerabilities, and increased costs. This creates a constant pressure to upgrade and adapt to new technologies, which can be a significant burden for those with limited resources. Finding sustainable solutions that balance innovation with longevity is essential to mitigate the impact of technological obsolescence. In addition, the pervasiveness of technology has raised concerns about its impact on mental and physical well-being. The constant connectivity and the influx of information can lead to feelings of overwhelm and anxiety. Moreover, the sedentary nature of many technological activities can contribute to a more sedentary lifestyle, leading to health issues such as obesity and musculoskeletal problems. Finding a balance between the benefits of technology and its potential negative impact on well-being is crucial for creating a healthy relationship with Information Systems and Technology. Lastly, the issue ofdigital sustainability has come to the forefront as the environmental impact of Information Systems and Technology becomes more apparent. The energy consumption of data centers, electronic waste from discarded devices, and the carbon footprint of digital activities are all contributing to environmental degradation. Addressing this issue requires a holistic approach that considers the entire lifecycle of technology, from design and production to disposal and recycling. Sustainable practices and innovation in green technology are essential to mitigate the environmental impact of Information Systems and Technology. In conclusion, the field of Information Systems and Technology presents a myriad of complex problems that require multifaceted solutions. From cybersecurity and ethical considerations to digital inclusion and environmental sustainability, addressing these challenges necessitates collaboration, innovation, and a deep understanding of the interconnected nature of technology in our society. By acknowledging these issues and working towards comprehensive solutions, we can harness the potential of Information Systems and Technology to create a more inclusive, secure, and sustainable future for all.。

Innovations in Systems and Software Engineering manuscript No.(will be inserted by the editor)Naohiro Matsumura·David E.Goldberg·Xavier Llor`aCommunication Gap Management for Fertile Community Received:date/Accepted:dateAbstract In the paper,wefirst present an approach to extract social networks from message boards on the In-ternet.Then we propose communication gaps based on structural features of the social networks as an indicator of understanding the state of communication.After we classify3,000social networks into three types of com-munication,i.e.,interactive communication,distributed communication,and soapbox communication,we suggest communication gap management to identify the types of communication,the roles of individuals,and important ties,all of which can be used for drawing up a plan for realizing fertile community.1IntroductionWith the advent of popular social networking services on the Internet such as Friendster1and Orkut2,social net-works are again coming into the limelight with respect to this new communication platform.A social network shows the relationships between individuals in a group or organization where we can observe their social activities. For example,individuals who share a serious problem might all join a discussion on ways to solve the problem, while in another case only a few knowledgeable individu-als might give information when individuals seek tofind out more about specific topics.Naohiro MatsumuraGraduate School of Economics,Osaka University1-7Machikaneyama,Toyonaka,Osaka,560-0043Japan Tel.:+6-6850-5231Fax:+6-6850-5231E-mail:matumura@econ.osaka-u.ac.jpDavid E.Goldberg and Xavier Llor`aIllinois Genetic Algorithms Laboratory,Department of Gen-eral Engineering,University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 414Transportation Building,104S.Mathews Avenue,Ur-bana,IL61801E-mail:{deg,xllora}@1/2/It is known that well-planned communication real-izes human innovation in communication[4].In this pa-per,we define a“fertile community”as the community where individuals communicate according to their aims, and output innovative outputs.However,the complex-ity of communication makes it difficult to realize fertile community.To overcome this difficulty,we make use of the property that explains how the structural features of a social network affect the types of communication and topics individuals are talking munication gap management is proposed here to identify the types of communication,the roles of individuals,and impor-tant ties,all of which can be used for drawing up a plan for realizing fertile communication.In Chance Discovery research,a“chance”is defined as a rare event or situa-tion which provide us opportunities or risks for human decision making in dynamic environment[12].In this context,we can say that the paper provides a method of discovering a chance towards fertile community.The remainder of this paper proceeds as follows.In Section2,we present an approach to extract social net-works from message boards on the Internet.Then we introducefive indices that can be used to measure the structural features of social networks in Section3.We describe three types of communication found from the classification of3,000social networks in Section4.In Section5,we suggest an approach for communication gap management which enables us to identify the types of communication,the roles of individuals,and impor-tant ties.After related works are shown in Section6,our conclusions and directions for future work are given in Section7.2Extracting Social NetworksIn a social network based upon online communication, the distance between individuals does not mean‘geo-graphical distance’because each person lives in a virtual world.Instead,distance can be considered‘psychologi-2Fig.1A message chain offive messages sent by three indi-viduals.cal distance’and this can be measured by the“influence”wielded among the members of the network.Consider the situation where an individual p has a great deal of influence on an individual q.In this case, we can consider three types of relationship.Case1.p is close to q.Case2.q is close to p.Case3.p and q are close to each other.Cases1and2show uni-directional relationships,and Case3shows a bi-directional relationship.Most previ-ous studies of social networks employed undirectional social networks,i.e.,Case3,because of the simplicity of analysis.However,the relationship between individu-als is not symmetric because of their activities and social situations[16].In addition,the difference of the distances between two individuals could be a key to understanding the relationships since it shows the communication gap between them.For this reason,we treat a social network as an asymmetric network where vertices denote individ-uals and directed links denote theflows of influence.In this paper,we do not need to distinguish Case1from Case2(e.g.,the direction of the relationship distance) because our approach to measuring the communication gap,described later,produces the same results regardless of the direction.We measure the influnce by using the IDM(Influ-ence Diffusion Model)algorithm in which the influence between a pair of individuals is measured as the sum of propagating terms among them via messages[7].Here, let a message chain be a series of messages connected by post-reply relationships,and the influence of a message x on a message y(x precedes y)in the same message chain be i x→y.Then,i x→y is defined asi x→y=|w x∩···∩w y|,(1) where w x and w y are the set of terms in x and y,re-spectively,and|w x∩···∩w y|is the number of terms propagating from x to y via other messages.If x and y are not in the same message chain,we define i x→y as 0because the terms in x and y are used in a different context and there is no influence between them.Based on the influence between messages,we next measure the influence of an individual p on an individ-ual q as the total influence of p’s messages on other’s messages through q’s messages replying to p’s messages. Let the set of p’s messages beα,the set of q’s messages replying to any ofαbeβ,and the message chains start-ing from a message z beξz.The influence from p onto q,j p→q,is then defined asj p→q=∑x∈α∑z∈β∑y∈ξzi x→y.(2)Here we see the influence of p on q as q’s contribution toward the spread of p’s messages.The influence of each individual is also measurable using j p→q.Let the influ-ence of p be k p,and all other individuals beγ.Then,k pis defined ask p=∑q∈γj p→q.(3)As an example of measuring the influence,let us usethe simple message chain shown in Figure1where Anne posted Message1,Bobby posted Message2as a replyto Message1,and Cathy posted Message3and Message4as replies to Message2and Message1,respectively.In thefigure,solid arrows show the replies to previous messages,and dotted arrows show theflows of influence. Here,the influence between a pair of individuals is as follows.–The influence of Anne on Bobby is3(i.e.,j Anne→Bobby=3),because two terms(“Environment”and“Conve-nience”)were propagated from Anne to Bobby,andone term(“Environment”)was propagated from Anneto Cathy via Bobby.–The influence of Anne on Cathy is1(i.e.,i Anne→Cathy=1),because one term(“Price”)was propagated fromAnne to Cathy.–The influence of Bobby on Cathy is1(i.e.,i Bobby→Cathy=1),because one term(“Environment”)was propa-gated from Bobby to Cathy.–The influence of Bobby on Anne and of Cathy on Anne is0(i.e.,i Bobby→Anne=0and i Cathy→Anne=0),because no term was propagated to Anne fromeither Bobby or Cathy.Note that we ignore the influence of Anne on Cathy, even though a term“Environment”was propagated from Anne to Cathy via Bobby,because we want to measure direct influence between individuals.Instead,we considerthe indirect influence of Anne on Cathy via Bobby asthe contribution of Bobby,and add it to the influence of Anne on Bobby.By mapping the influence between individuals,we can obtain a social network showing influence as in Fig-ure2where their relationships are shown as directional links and the influence between them.From thefigure,we can understand the influential relationships between individuals,and guess their roles in the communication,3Fig.2A social network showing the influence from Figure1.Fig.3A social network showing the distance from Figure 1.e.g.,as opinion leaders and followers [?],from the influ-ence.For example,Anne would be an opinion leader be-cause she was the source of the most influence on others.Bobby would be a mediator because he was a recipient of influence and transmitted some of it to Cathy.Cathy would be a follower because she only received influence from others.The influence between individuals also shows the dis-tance between them with respect to contextual similarity since the influence indicates the degree of their shared interest represented as terms.The influence and contex-tual distance between individuals are inversely related;i.e.,the greater the influence,the shorter the distance.Here,let us define the length of a link (i.e.,distance)as follows.The distance of a link:The distance from an individ-ual p to an individual q ,d p →q ,is defined as the value inversely proportionate to the influence from p to q ;i.e.,d p →q =1/j p →q .The distance is between 0and 1when the influence is more than 0.However,the distance cannot be measured by the above definition if the influence is 0.In that case,we define the distance n −1(n is the number of individ-uals participating in communication)as the case of the weakest relationships;i.e.,the diameter of a social net-work where all individuals are connected linearly with maximum distance.In this way,an asymmetric socialnetwork with distance is extracted from message chains as shown in Figure 3.3Communication Gaps in Social Networks Based on the forward and backward distances between two individuals in a social network,we can consider three types of relationship between them.–Type 1.Two-sided communication:Two indi-viduals actively exchange their ideas with each other.In this case,they are equivalent in communication,and their closeness can be identified by the short dis-tances between them.–Type 2.One-sided communication:One indi-vidual’s idea is received by an individual,while an-other individual’s idea is not.In this case,the two senders are not equivalent in communication,as can be identified from the distance between them since the forward distances and backward distances will differ from each other.–Type 3.Sparse communication:Two individuals rarely exchange ideas with each other.In this case,they are not involved in communication,and their relationship can be identified from the long distances between them.These three types,in other words,correspond to var-ious “communication gaps”between two individuals.By measuring the communication gaps for all pairs of indi-viduals in a social network,we can understand the state of their communication.For example,a small gap indi-cates active communication,while a large gap suggests inactive communication.The distances can also be measured for two individ-uals who are not directly connected but indirectly con-nected via other individuals because they can exchange their ideas through others.Interestingly,the shortest path between individuals is often not an existing direct path,but an indirect path.In this paper,we consider the dis-tance of the shortest path as the distance between two individuals since it reflects the real channel of their com-munication.Here,let the distance of the shortest path from an individual p to another individual q be d p →q (d p →q =0if p is equal to q )and the set of all individuals in a so-cial network be γ.We then propose three indices,G diff ,G max and G min ,that measure the collective communi-cation gap in the social network from different points of view.–G diff measures the communication gap by accumu-lating the differences in the distances of the shortest paths between all pairs of individuals.G diff is de-fined asG diff =(12∑p ∈γ∑q ∈γ|d p →q −d q →p |)4×(1n C 2(n −1)),(4)where |d p →q −d q →p |is the absolute value of (d p →q −d q →p ),and n C 2(n −1)is a theoretical maximum of the first term used for normalizing G diff .–G max measures the communication gap by accumu-lating the longer distances of the shortest paths be-tween all pairs of individuals as a bottleneck hinder-ing communication.G max is defined asG max =(12∑p ∈γ∑q ∈γmax(d p →q ,d q →p ))×(1n C 2(n −1)),(5)where max(d p →q ,d q →p )returns the maximum value from {d p →q ,d q →p },and n C 2(n −1)is a theoreti-cal maximum of the first term used for normalizing G max .–G min measures the communication gap by accumu-lating the shorter distances of the shortest paths be-tween all pairs of individuals.G min is defined asG min =(12∑p ∈γ∑q ∈γmin(d p →q ,d q →p ))×(1n C 2(n −1)),(6)where min(d p →q ,d q →p )returns the minimum value from {d p →q ,d q →p },and n C 2(n −1)is a theoreti-cal maximum of the first term used for normalizing G min .We can also consider another approach to identifying the state of communication by using only the distances between individuals instead of the differences between distances since the distance itself shows another aspect of communication gaps.The approach is known as “close-ness centrality”where individuals nearby are more like to give/receive information more quickly than others [2].Based on closeness centrality,we propose two more in-dices for measuring the collective communication gap,C diff and C dist ,as follows.–C diff measures the communication gap by accumu-lating the differences in the closeness centralities of individuals.C diff is defined asC diff =(∑p ∈γ|c in p −c outp |)×(1n (n −1)2),(7)where c in p means the inward closeness centrality that shows the sum of distances of the shortest paths from all other individuals to p ,c out pmeans the outward closeness centrality that shows the sum of distances of the shortest paths from p to all other individuals,and n (n −1)2is a theoretical maximum of the first term used for normalizing C diff .–C dist measures the communication gap by accumu-lating the closeness centralities of individuals.C dist is defined asC dist =(∑p ∈γc out p )×(1n (n −1)2),(8)where n (n −1)2is a theoretical maximum of thefirst term used for normalizing C dist .Note that C distdoesn’t change even if we use c in p instead of c outp .4Three Types of CommunicationTo identify the types of communication,we employed the five indices proposed in Section 3from 3,000social networks.The analysis procedure was as follows.–Step 1.We downloaded 3,000message boards from 15categories of Yahoo!Japan Message Boards.To equalize the number of messages for each message board,we selected message boards having more than 300messages and downloaded the first 300messages.Then,we removed stop words (words except for noun and verb words)from all the messages to accurately measure content-derived influence.In this way,we prepared 3,000message boards with each having 300messages.–Step 2.We extracted a social network from each message board using the approach described in Sec-tion 2.To equalize the number of individuals in a social network,we constructed a social network with the 10most influential individuals identified by Equa-tion (3).We thus obtained 3,000social networks,each consisting of 10individuals.–Step 3.We measured G diff ,G max ,G min ,C dist ,and C diff for the 3,000extracted social networks,and then averaged each index for each category.–Step 4.We tried to identify the types of communi-cation based on the five indices.The values of the five indices and the sum,G sum ,for the fifteen categories are shown in Table 1.We expected that the five indices would reveal different aspects of communication,however they were indistinguishable be-cause the Pearson correlation coefficients between them were over 0.9.For this reason,we employed G sum for identifying the types of communication.From G sum in Table 1,we could identify three major clusters,each cor-responding to a type of communication.We named the clusters as follows.–Interactive Communication:This cluster includes seven categories (“Arts”,“Sciences”,“Health &Well-ness”,“Culture &Community”,“Romance &Rela-tionships”,“Hobbies &Crafts”,and “Family &Home”),the indices of which are considerably smaller than those of other categories.The topics in these cate-gories are common and familiar to many individuals5Table1Five communicatin gap indices and the sum,G sum,for15categories measured from3,000message boards in

others.–Distributed Communication:This cluster includes six categories(“Regional”,“Entertainment”,“Busi-ness&Finance”,“Schools&Education”,“Govern-ment&Politics”,and“Recreation&Sports”),the indices of which are generally higher than those of the interactive communication categories.As the top-ics in these categories are somewhat specific and dis-putable,experienced or knowledgeable individuals con-tribute most to the communication.–Soapbox Communication:This cluster includes two categories(“Computers&Internet”and“Cur-rent Events”),the indices of which are higher than those of the above two clusters.The topics in these categories are mainly current affairs or topical news, and the communication is one-way from informers to audiences(or lurkers).From the above results,we can say that there are roughly three types of communication in Yahoo!Japan Message Boards.By assuming that these types are gen-eral properties in communication,the state of commu-nication of any social networks could be identified from communication gap indices.In this research,we select to use G max for further analysis because of its discrim-inability,i.e.,G max proved to be the most discriminative index for identifying clusters.5Communication Gap Management Communication gap management is done to identify the types of communication,understand the roles of individ-uals,and explore remedies for communication gaps in social networks.In this section,we present case studies of communication gap management based on communi-cation types and G max explained before.5.1Communication TypesWe prepared two types of message log,log1and log 2,each of which was extracted from a message board on DISCUS3[3].Log1consisted of72messages posted byfive individuals(one Japanese researcher,one Cata-lan researcher,and three Japanese businesspersons)who discussed“cell phones and women”in English.Log2 consisted of102messages posted by six individuals(two Japanese researchers,one Catalan researcher,one Japanese businessperson,one Chinese student,and one Taiwanese student)who discussed“purchase of a house”in English. Note that the real names of individuals have been re-placed withfictional names to protect their privacy.Figures4and5are social networks showing the dis-tance extracted from log1and log2,respectively,using the approach described in Section2.Once we obtained the social networks,G max was measured as0.069from Figure4and0.364from of paring G max with the clustering results in Section4,we can identify the types of communication of log1and log2as“interac-tive communication”and“distributed communication”, respectively.The topic in log1was familiar to the individuals be-cause they use cell phones everyday.On the other hand, the purchase of a house is a big event in life,and many in-dividuals have no experience of making such a purchase. Therefore,the communication in log2was controlled by a few experienced individuals.Thus,the communication types of log1and log2seem to have properly reflected the types of real communication.5.2Roles of IndividualsAs shown by the definition of G max in Equation(5), G max is measured by summing each individual’s commu-3/6Fig.4The social network with distance extracted from log1.G max =0.069.Fig.5The social network with distance extracted from log 2.G max =0.364.nication gaps with respect to other individuals.That is,G max for each individual is easily measurable by trans-lating the definition of G max .Let the communication gap of an individual p be g max .We can then define g max asg max =(12∑q ∈γmax(d p →q ,d q →p ))×(2n (n −1)),(9)where n (n −1)/2is the theoretical maximum of the firstterm used for normalizing g max .As the G max of Figure 5is high,let us measure each individual’s g max to reveal the source of the communi-cation gap.As shown in Table 2,Fabian has the highest g max .From this,we can understand that there are com-munication gaps around Fabian.The roles of individuals are also identified from their relationships with others.If removing a link raises G max ,the link is considered to help reduce the communication gap and is therefore important.That is,we can measure the importance of each link by comparing the G max of the original social network with that link to G max of a social network without the link.Let the importance of a link be l max .We then define l max as l max =G ′max −G max ,(10)where G ′max is the G max measured from a social network without the link.From the top three l max values in Fig-ure 5listed in Table 3,we can see that a link from Erika to Anna is the most important.Table 2g max of each individual in Figure 5.AnaBill Claudette Danny Erika Fabian g max0.0380.0390.0380.0400.0420.167Table 3Three most important links in Figure 5.Linkl max G ′max G max Erika →Ana 0.5740.9380.364Danny →Ana 0.2700.6340.364Ana →Erika0.2260.5900.364During face-to-face interviews with participants in Figure 5with showing Figure 6,we found that they con-sidered Fabian creative,but strong-willed to the degree that nobody could counter his ideas.As a result,the communication around him did not go well.They also agreed with the results regarding the important links in Table 3because these were the links actively used to exchange ideas during the period under study.5.3Remedies for Communication GapsOnce we can obtain information about who are the causes of communication gaps and which links are most im-portant for communication,we can prepare a remedy to improve communication.For example,the following three approaches could be the candidates of the reme-dies,apart from the feasibility.–Persuade inactive individuals to contribute to the communication,or persuade strong individuals to lis-ten to others’ideas.While this approach is straight-forward,the effectiveness of such persuasion depends on many factors which are beyond the scope of this paper.–Take inactive or strong individuals away from the communication.This approach is easy and has an immediate effect,but it is not constructive since we would lose the potential contributions of the excluded individuals.For example,Fabian in Figure 5should not be taken away because he supplied creative ideas although there were large gaps around him.Instead,we should consider how to get him into the commu-nication.–Add another individual who can communicate with inactive or strong individuals to bridge communica-tion gaps.To find such individuals,the link impor-tance can be used.For example,if we add Mr.X who has a link of distance 1.0to Anne and from Fabian to the social network in Figure 5,G max would dynami-cally drop from 0.364to 0.157.Needless to say,there approaches above should be planned carefully before putting into practice.Having an inverview with individuals for surveying the effect of7a remedy would further enhance the possibility of the success of communicatin gap management.Each remedy mentioned above corresponds to,in other words,a“sce-nario”for realizing fertile community.As the scenario is analytically drawn up from observed communication, it enable us to realize prompt and smooth revolution of communitation.6Related WorksSocial networks have been studied for decades.One of the origins of social network research is Moreno’s work of Sociometry[10].Bavelas analyzedn communication net-work in a small group to identify communication pat-terns[1].Milgram discovered what we now call‘small-world phenomena’which show that everyone is connected to each other through a short chain in their social net-works[9].Rogers classified each person intofive types according to their stage regarding the adoption of new ideas[13].Granovetter insisted that weak ties spanning local relationship boundaries contribute to the diffusion of information[5].Freeman proposed centrality measures to identify the importance of individuals and ties in a social network[2].Scott used social networks to identify gaps in informationflow within an organization tofind ways to get work done more effectively[14].Krackhardt studied the importance of informal networks in organi-zations and revealed the effect of these networks on the accomplishment of tasks[6].Social networks in online communication have been studied as well.Ohsawa et al.classified communities into six types according to the structural features of the word co-occurrence structure of communications[11].Tyler et al.analyzed e-mail logs within an organization to iden-tify communities of practice–informal collaborative net-works–and leaders within the communities[15].Mat-sumura et al.revealed the effect of anonymity and ASCII art on communication through message boards[8].7ConclusionHuman beings are social creatures,and we could not survive without cooperating with others.It also suggests that understanding how relationships are created and functioned is essential to make our lives happier and richer.The range of our social networks is rapidly ex-panding than before as the Internet
