Objective - This study aims to analyse the current situation of Taiwan's fitness equipment and bicycle industries, to compare their future development. As a result of globalization and the trend of the knowledge economy, patent information can be used to predict the trend of these industries. Methodology/Technique - This study uses M-Trends as a research tool. The scope of the study is the number of patents issued between 1996 and 2015. Findings - The research results show that the technology lifecycle of the fitness equipment and bicycle industries are both mature. Novelty - This study analyzes the life cycle of Taiwan's fitness equipment and bicycle industries through EXCEL, to build a patent figure, and compare the technology life cycle to show Taiwan's fitness equipment and bicycle industries in the technology lifecycle phase. Type of Paper - Empirical. Keywords: Patents; M-Trends; Fitness Equipment Industry; Bicycle Industry; Taiwan. JEL Classification: L62, Z23.

The rise of “blockchain +” has a great impact on all fields and even the whole social and economic situation, and is no exception to the audit work. Blockchain has the characteristics of non-tampering, timestamp, grid consensus and so on, which is in line with the requirements of the audit work to pursue efficiency and effect. Under such a development background, the “blockchain+audit” industry arises from this. The integration of blockchain into audit engagements, in turn, changes the proportion of audit transaction costs. Based on this background, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to analyze the transaction cost of audit. In view of the problems found in the current transaction cost analysis of “blockchain+audit”, combined with the research on the future development trend based on the theory of technological innovation and industry life cycle, this paper puts forward some suggestions to effectively control the audit cost and improve the audit efficiency. The aim is to provide a practical reference basis for the better application of blockchain technology in auditing.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to put forward a multi-stage information aggregation method based on grey inspiriting control lines to evaluate the objects dynamically and comprehensively. Design/methodology/approach – According to the evaluation value of the objects, the positive and negative incentive lines were set up and the predicted values were solved based on the grey GM(1, 1) model, so the value with expected information could be evaluated. In the evaluation, the part above the positive incentive line should be “rewarded” and that below the negative incentive line should be “punished” appropriately. Thereby the double incentive effects of “the current development situation and future development trend” to objects could be implemented on the basis of control. Findings – This method can primarily describe the decision maker's expectancy of the development of evaluation objects and make the evaluation results have better practical application value. Research limitations/implications – Many comprehensive evaluations were always based on the past information. However, the future development trend of the evaluated object is also very important. This study can be used in the evaluation for future application and development. Originality/value – The paper succeeds in providing not only a method of multi-phase information aggregation with expectancy information, but also a simple and convenient method solving nonlinear inspiring lines objectively.

Technological transfer is a complex and varied process, being realized out at different stages of technology readiness level. Being essentially a trading, technology transfer is fully subject to market laws. The technology transfer strategy and tactics are strongly influenced by the degree of technology's readiness level, systemic character, functional orientation and universality, technical and economic determination degrees that can be specified and determined in accordance with the stages of technology life cycle.
