因為行動運算在近年來的快速發展，本研究嘗試探討企業員工對於行動運算的接受度。別於以往研究科技接受度大多以個人因素與系統因素兩種觀點，我們根據互動理論的觀點和鑽石模型提出了四種科技相容性。本研究將這四種相容性作為科技接受模型的外在變數，並且對各個相容性與認知有用性和認知易用性之間的影響提出假說。經過本研究的統計分析結果，我們針對各個假說加以討論。最後，我們針對學術上與實務上提出建議，並指出科技相容性對行動運算接受的重要性。

Because of the fast development of mobile computing in recent years, this study attempt to research the acceptance of mobile computing for employees on business. Different from the past studies based on people-determined and system-determined to verify technology acceptance, we base on interaction theory viewpoint and diamond model to create four technology compatibilities. We treat these four compatibilities as external variables of technology acceptance model (TAM), and hypothesize each of the compatibility influencing perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. According to the analysis result of this study, we focus on these hypotheses to discuss. Final, we also discuss the implications for theory and practice and point out the importance of technology compatibility to mobile computing acceptance.
