浅论中国问题的根本——兼与李涛先生商榷

国家的根本问题是人才问题,即如何教育、选拔、使用人的问题。更深层的问题在于如何看待人和对待人。那种认为＂今日中国为何出不了大师＂是伪命题的看法是站不住脚的。大师最根本的特点是具有自由之思想、独立之人格。除了个人主观努力外,还需要具备大师成长的生态环境,而这一点却是我们必须认真反思的问题。今日中国是今日大师健康生存、成长的基本土壤,如何看待今日中国的国情蕴涵着这一问题解决的理论前提。     

管理科学与工程硕士研究生创新能力培养探讨——以南华大学为例

创新教育是研究生教育的灵魂,创新能力是高素质人才培养的核心和根本任务。文章在分析创新本质的基础上,明确了创新的不同形式,然后根据管理科学与工程专业以及博士研究生和硕士研究生创新能力的差别定位,将该专业硕士研究生创新能力定位为应用创新能力培养,最后探讨了该专业应用创新能力培养的途径,以期为加强管理科学与工程专业硕士研究生教育和实现创新型人才培养目标提供理论指导。     

英美工程硕士生培养发展状况比较研究

文章以英国和美国为例,就工程类型硕士生培养发展状况做一比较,试图从英美工程硕士的培养模式中,获取对我国培养工程硕士进一步发展的启示。     

论工程硕士的培养模式

１９９７年,国务院学位委员会审议通过 了《工程硕士专业学位设置方案》,这是我国学位制度改革的一项重要举措,顺应了国民经 济发展的需要,丰富了工科研究生培养的类型。文章就设置工程硕士专业学位的意义,工程 硕士的培养特点,包括在课程设置、教学实施、论文选题和评价、实行双导师制,以及建立 工程硕士培养基地等方面的问题进行了讨论,强调了注重质量、促进发展的思想。     

工程硕士学位的设立与培养模式研究

工程硕士是高等工程教育在研究生教育中与工学硕士学位处于同一层次的一种新的培养类型,是为适应我国经济建设和社会发展需要,尤其是为我国国企改革与发展培养急需人才的一种具体实现形式。在科技当先,以人为本的新经济时代,研究生教育的改革与发展与经济建设和社会发展有着十分密切的关系。文章从工程硕士学位产生的社会环境,工程硕士教育的培养目标、教育活动过程,学校与企业的合作方式及与之相适应的工程硕士培养模式等方面进行了尝试性的分析和探讨。     

法律硕士专业学位教育存在的问题及其应对

法律硕士专业学位教育在十余年的办学过程中取得了较为可喜的成就,为实务部门输送了大量的法律专业人才。但是由于一些培养单位对法律硕士专业学位教育的两大培养目标（复合型、实务型）没能落实到实处,导致在培养方案、教学方式和师资配备等方面还存有不少问题。基于此,可考虑在如下方面作出改善：培养方案的落实要突出实务的特色,教学方式上要引入诊所法律教育的教学模式,师资配备要侧重实务性。     

The Value of Production Schedule Integration in Supply Chains

This study explores the value of integrated production schedules for reducing the negative effects of schedule revisions in supply chains involving buyer and supplier firms. A stochastic cost model is developed to evaluate the total supply chain cost with integrated purchasing and scheduling policies. The model minimizes the costs associated with assembly rate adjustment, safety stock, and schedule changes for all supply chain members. Through experimentation, the paper examines the impact of several environmental factors on the value of schedule integration. This study finds that schedule integration can lead to overall cost savings in a supply chain, but some firms may have to absorb costs in excess of those they would incur with independent scheduling. Environments with high inventory holding costs and long supplier lead times may not find it beneficial to adopt an integrated schedule. Forecast effectiveness plays a critical role in realizing the benefits of schedule integration. The paper concludes with suggestions for future research.     

审美生存:庄子思想的核心

在庄子生活的时代,"人皆知有用之用,而莫知无用之用也",人们以有用作为衡量世界的惟一尺度,人与世界仅仅表现为物质上的利害关系。庄子以"无用之用"反对世人的"有用之用",以审美人性之大用反对以实用为大用的知识观、道德观和艺术观,以"无用"还原世界本真的美,在人与世界单纯的实用关系之外,开出审美生存的新天地,其审美生存的思想对于当今的人文反思有着直接的借鉴意义。     

Freezing the Master Production Schedule: Implications for Fill Rate*

Previous research examining alternative ways of dealing with schedule instability has shown that freezing a portion of the master production schedule (MPS) is a cost effective way to reduce instability. While it is often argued that MPS freezing limits the firm's ability to react to changing customer needs, the impact of freezing on customer service is not well understood. We examined the impact of freezing a specified portion of the MPS on the average fill rate under a wide variety of conditions using controlled simulation experiments. The results show that freezing can be implemented without causing a severe reduction in customer service.     

Supporting Quick Response Through Scheduling of Make-to-Stock Production/Inventory Systems*

Scheduling of traditional job shops in make-to-order systems has seen extensive research over the past three decades. In such systems, performance is often related to various job completion metrics such as average flow time, average lateness, etc. This paper examines a scheduling problem in a make-to-stock environment where individual job completion measures are irrelevant. In this case, customer orders are satisfied through on-hand inventory where customer service is more closely related to the manufacturer's ability to quickly satisfy demand. We consider the role of scheduling in reducing inventories and improving customer service in the context of a manufacturer who assembles several different products on a single assembly line. We develop scheduling rules for such a system and experimentally compare their performance to those typically used in such environments. Our results indicate that rules which consider the inventory position and demand forecast outperform traditional fixed cycle rules.
