Third, for improving allocation and utilization efficiency of public resources,

based on the researchfindings of our empirical models, we provide suggestions to

improve 211Us’research efficiency and reasonable advice on constructing dynamic

evaluating system on research performance of 211Us.

The research strategy and contents are included in the research framework as
Fig.1.1shows.
