Full textThis degree thesis is the finishing part of my studies in Media and Communication Engineering at the the Department of Science and Technology at Linköping University. The goal of the degree thesis was to develop a computer game in Macromedia Director in which you could play against other players over the Internet. The second goal was to make a description of some of the available methods to create applications in Macromedia Director with network capabilities. The report consists of a theory part with a description of Macromedia Director and what it can be used for. It also contains the description of the methods for creating application with network capabilities in Macromedia Director. Following the theory part comes a part where I account for how I created the game and descriptions of the most important parts of the game.

Company directors have been in existence for more than four hundred years. In the past, they were considered to be a necessary part of corporate existence, and were usually appointed to a board by the CEO or chairman. However, they were usually mates from the 'boys club' and gained their position from whom they knew, and not from what they were capable of contributing. The appointment of independent directors became more normal, as shareholders looked for a way to wrest control back from management. But what independent directors really do and why they are there is not widely understood. A review of the literature relative to independent directors has identified a gap in the knowledge. This gap is the role of the independent director when considered from a commercial aspect; that is, those who observe or write about independent directors. --This thesis has attempted to generate a theory of the role of the independent director through a review of the literature and a subsequent series of interviews. Grounded theory was the chosen methodology for analysing the data and formulating a theory of the role because it allows the researcher to ground the theory in the data instead of establishing a hypothesis and testing it. --The resulting theory is more complex than it first appears. It was found that the primary role of the independent director is to improve the performance of the board and the company. This role is impacted by a number of factors, the two most influential being the information that is available to the independent directors, and the position of the company. This second factor is defined as the size of the company, where it is in its life cycle, and whether it is experiencing any significant change. --These findings enable a number of recommendations to be made to improve policy and practice, recognising the impact of information and company position on the ability of independent directors to contribute positively. It also raises several areas of further study to continue to refine the understanding of the role of the independent nonexecutive director in Australia. These include, among others, investigating the role from other viewpoints such as the board chair or company secretary, or researching the link between company position and information available to independent directors.

Full textThe music director has his own origin in important musical transformations which arose between the 17th and the 18th centuries. These mutations with Lully gave birth to a prototype who is at the same time composer, musician, performer, businessman, and who has been moulding the figure of the music director from this period onwards. Then, when these various duties split, a new profile of music director emerged, as an orchestra-founder and -trainer, embodied by Habeneck.From the end of 19th century, new models were implemented, such as inventors, entrepreneurs and citizens thoroughly committed to their community. Beside, some festivals have their own orchestra, but no permanent conductor. Some other orchestras simply refuse to be lead by a stable or non-stable conductor.The music director of our century in France is the heir of these various models. He has numerous duties and needs to demonstrate evidence of great skills, since he has to come up to the expectations of a wide and versatile environment. But, at the same time, his uniqueness and value are not really appreciated and the wolrdwide competition between conductors led him to be less present and therefore to give up a substantial part of his powers, related to programming and artistic direction. To some extent, the situation of the music director in France is reflecting the institutional system of this country

In recent years, many financial scandals have occurred in Taiwan. It does not only shock the stability of financial order, but also damages the rights and interests of shareholders and investors. The issue of company governance becomes more and more important. However, the composition of a company includes shareholders with financial contribution and director or manager who is responsible for operation, and also involves other interested parties associated with the company''s business operation. Therefore, Scholar William Blackstone ever pointed out,” A company is like a small republic.” It means that company governance is like governance of a nation, which is rather complicated. Article 202 in Current Act of Company of Taiwan specifies, “All business execution of the company, except the Act or regulation specified events that shall be decided by board of shareholders, shall be determined by the board of directors.” Viewing from the specification, internal right and power distribution of Act of Company in Taiwan is adopted director priority legislation. Under the principle of separation of all businesses, the board of directors, as the business executive authority, is the core in the organization of a company. Before revising and enlarging Item 3 of Article 8 in 2012, the identification of board of directors was identified according to the Item 1 and Item 2 of Article 8. Although the president, adviser or supervisor was in the list and has decision-making power, it was an awkward situation that they had power without responsibility, as they are unable to be managed. However, the revised and enlarged contents have a break-through for the identification of the board of directors. The new Act adopts substantial identification, i.e. it divides the directors in to “legal director”, “de facto director” and “shadow director”. The latter two are collectively referred to as the de facto directors, and related responsibilities are specified. Law revision of this time referred to the legislation cases of UK and US. This article starts from the concept that the powerful shall undertake corresponding responsibilities to develop the importance of directors in company governance and discuss the responsibilities of directors and legislation of de facto director in Item 3 of Article 8, Act of Company of Taiwan. The article will illustrate the similarities and differences between the draft amendments and existing law, and incompatible part that are applicable to affiliate enterprises and corporate director. Furthermore, as the legislation refers to the legislation of UK, it aims to take it as a reference for de facto director identification in Taiwan by introducing the concept of “controlling shareholder” and “de facto director” (de facto director and shadow director) with assistance of identification standards of de facto director proposed by the accumulation of English law judgment. The analysis and comparisons for the two are also important indicators for the application of Item 3 of Article 8. It is expected to have a better understanding for de facto director based on this paper.

Based on data of listed non-financial companies on the Taiwan Stock Exchange and Taipei Exchange Markets covering the period of 2008~2017, this master thesis examines the linkage between Directors' and Officers' Liability Insurance (DOLI) and Resignation of Independent Directors. Existing research has documented the effect of DOLI on corporate performance and other economic consequences, but among them has rarely explored the impact of DOLI on the resignation of independent directors. While greater degree of DOLI coverage may protect independent from litigation risk and result in lower degree of independent director resignation, greater degree of DOLI coverage may imply and cover higher firm risk thus result in higher potential resignation of independent director. In the thesis, six proxy variables is employed to proxy the extent of DOLI coverage, and the resignation of independent directors is measured by three proxy variables. Through descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and multiple regression estimation, the empirical result is that the degree of DOLI coverage is positively correlated with the extent of independent director resignation.

This thesis examines two research issues. First is the association between compensation for the members of board of directors and supervisors (hereafter “compensation of directors and supervisors”) and company performance. Second is the association between independent directors and percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors to net income (hereafter “percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors”). Percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors is defined as the proportion of compensation for directors and supervisors to net income. Using data obtained from Taiwan Economic Journal, Market Observation Posting System (MOPS), and company websites for the electronics companies listed in Taiwan Stock Exchange and GreTai Securities Market for the period 2003-2005, a total of 584 companies and 1,752 observations for the variables constitute the sample for this study. The empirical results show that compensation of directors and supervisors is positively and significantly associated with company performance. In addition, proportion of independent directors has no significant association with percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors. Using the median of the percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors to split the sample into two sub-samples and conduct the same analyses indicates that when the companies whose percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors is above the median, there is a significant and negative association between proportion of independent directors and percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors. Further, disparity between control right (number of directors) and cash flow right (number of shares owned) of ultimate controllers (owners) is positively correlated with compensation of directors and supervisors. Number of directors coming from ultimate controllers (owners) is negatively correlated with percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors. Finally, independent directors serving on the board for more than three companies tend to be associated with higher percentage of compensation for directors and supervisors.

The old Company Law of Taiwan, only due the civil and crime duties to the company director, not to the de facto director and shadow director. However, after January 4, 2012, the new Company Law of Taiwan, not only due the civil and crime duties to the company director, but also to the de facto director and shadow director. Because the new Company Law of Taiwan, was referenced to the United States and the United Kingdom’s company director systems. This paper will discuss the new Company Law of Taiwan, the United States and the United Kingdom’s company director systems(including the United Kingdom’s de facto director and shadow director system, and the United States’ controlling shareholder system).

With two or more video cameras filming at different subjects during a lecture period, a complete lecture recording is considered done. A professional director will select a best shot for the target audiences It takes long period of time, training and experience to succeed a professional director in order to provide the most suitable viewing experiences to the audiences. Therefore, a “virtual director system” is proposed to achieve the goal, a system for simulating operations and workings of directors, and to cost down the hiring and training processes of a professional director. Two important segments are included in the proposed research, virtual director system, the shot selection and visual instruction. This research will evaluate the contents and classify them into nine standards of viewings. This research uses multiple kernel learning and spatio-temporal aggregation (STA) to train data and simulate a director whom has a unique shooting style. This system includes three groups of virtual cameramen to film a speaker, audiences and overview respectively. Visual instruction is a director giving cameramen shooting advices according to frames from different cameraman. This system can define events based on speaker’s gesture, moving points of size and ranges from audience frame and overview frame, then sending to different instructions to recommend steering mode. Through lecture record testing, analyzing and comparing with other methods, this research is more comfortable to view’s expectation.

Before the amendment to the Company Act (the "CA"), directors are responsible persons of a company in accordance with Article 8 of the CA. There is no argument that directors are the de jure director elected through legal procedures. However, a person, who is not acting as a director, having similar operational power or privilege as a director is quite common in current practice. It will lead to serious breach to the regulations of corporate governance if the abovementioned person is not subject to the responsibility system of directors. The voices for adding regulations governing shadow directors and de facto directors have been existed in academia for a long time. After a long-term discussion, Paragraph 3, Article 8 of the CA has finally been added at the beginning of 2012. It is a milestone of the company legislations for officially introducing regulations governing shadow directors and de facto directors. However, it needs further clarification for the definition/recognition, application and the responsibility scope of shadow directors and dse facto directors before the courts and regulators having enough experience and cases. For such issues, the verdicts and latest regulations regarding the shadow director and de facto director under England legislations existed for a long period may provide certain inspiration. Therefore, this thesis will analyze the CA of Taiwan in 2006 and important verdicts of England courts and compare with the problem and handling of shadow directors and de facto directors in practice before the amendment to the CA in the view of corporate governance and agent issues. Furthermore, this thesis will also provide the preliminary explanation of the new regulations of preliminary and advice for the derivative problems after introducing such regulations in order to gather and appreciate more valuable opinions.
