自美國政府發佈「國家資訊基礎建設藍皮書」以來,全球掀起一片國家資訊基礎建設的熱潮,資訊科技的應用將成為企業國際化與提昇競爭力的必要趨勢,也因此資訊科技之相關議題與其應用所可能帶來的影響,遂成為各界學者極欲研究探討之對象。本研究以臺灣北部地區之關鍵產業-積體電路(Integrated Circuit, IC)產業為對象進行實證分析,探討該產業應用電子資料交換(Electronic Data Interchange, EDI)之資訊科技後,對貨運旅次造成的影響。研究結果發現,IC產業應用EDI會促使其貨物運輸旅次發生數量、旅次長度以及車公里數均呈現增加之現象,基於產業電子商務之發展與資訊科技的應用為時勢潮流,為因應所增加的貨運旅運需求,本研究根據實證發現,研提因應EDI使用之運輸規劃與管理策略,供相關單位參考。
The national information infrastructure has been taken hold on to the world since the paper. ”The National Information Infrastructure: Agenda for Action” published by the US government. The application of information technology will be a necessary trend to those enterprises which aim to globalize and increase their competitive capability. Thus, the issue of the information technology and its application will become a topical subject between the scholars. This study empirically investigated the impacts of electronic data interchange (EDI) application of Integrated Circuit (IC) manufacturers in northern Taiwan region on freight trip generation. The empirical findings presented that applying EDI to IC manufacturers will stimulate the trip generation volume, trip length and vehicle kilometer traveled. To adequately deal with the impacts, strategies of travel demand management and transportation systems planning for IC industry areas are recommended in this paper.
