Book The Making and Influence of I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang

Download or read book The Making and Influence of I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang written by Scott Allen Nollen and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert E. Burns, a World War I veteran coerced into taking part in a petty crime in Atlanta, Georgia, was sentenced to hard labor on a chain gang in 1922. Twice escaping and on the lam for decades, he was aided only by his minister-poet brother, Vincent G. Burns. Their collaborative work, I Am a Fugitive from a Georgia Chain Gang! was the basis for Darryl F. Zanuck's and Mervyn Leroy's hard-hitting 1932 film adaptation from Warner Bros. This book traces the making and influence of the film--which launched a string of imitators--and the Burns brothers' efforts to obtain a pardon for Robert, which never came.

Book 65 Case Study Ideas In Production operation supply Chain And Logistics Management

Download or read book 65 Case Study Ideas In Production operation supply Chain And Logistics Management written by Dr. Asim Kumar Bandyopadhyay and published by OrangeBooks Publication. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of case study ideas in the areas of production, operation, supply chain and logistics management (POM-SCL) ,also incorporating operation strategies. This book has been designed conforming to the standards of this common subject for the courses of Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) prescribed by the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE) and University Grants Commission (UGC). The book consists of sixty five case study ideas covering almost the entire gamut of the subject concerned. All these cases are based on Indian organizations/industries using the characters with names typically Indian and the narrations of these cases reflect Indian work culture, value systems and ethos. All these cases are followed by a set of about half a dozen questions pertaining to the narrations with the corresponding answers suggested for the guidance of the teachers and the students alike. Apart from making the book very convenient and handy for studying the subject, it is also aimed at dispelling fears and apprehensions among the students with non –science/non-technical background that they seem to have about this subject. Getting familiar with the numerical exercises given and solved in this book by practice will make passing this subject a cakewalk for any average student. The cases are so designed as to expose the students to the realities and challenges to the actual professional life while still seating in the class rooms, much before entering a professional career. The book provides a colossal value addition as both a complement and a supplement to the theories in the text books.

Download or read book OPERATIONS AND SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT written by Prof. (Dr.) Milind Audumbar Kulkarni, Mr. Hemant Vishwanath More and published by Ashok Yakkaldevi. This book was released on 2022-06-20 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Operations management? Every business is managed through three major functions: finance, marketing, and operations management. Illustrates this by showing that the vice presidents of each of these functions report directly to the president or CEO of the company. Other business functions— such as accounting, purchasing, human resources, and engineering—support these three major functions. Finance is the function responsible for managing cash flow, current assets, and capital investments. Marketing is responsible for sales, generating customer demand, and understanding customer wants and needs. Most of us have some idea of what finance and marketing are about, but what does operations management do? Operations management (OM) is the business function that plans, organizes, coordi- nates, and controls the resources needed to produce a company’s goods and services. Operations management is a management function. It involves managing people, equipment, technology, information, and many other resources. Operations management is the central core function of every company. This is true whether the company is large or small, provides a physical good or a service, is for-profit or not-for-profit. Every company has an operations management function. Actually, all the other organizational functions are there primarily to support the operations function. Without operations, there would be no goods or services to sell. Consider a retailer such as The Gap, which sells casual apparel. The marketing function provides promotions for the merchandise, and the finance function provides the needed capital. It is the operations function, however, that plans and coordinates all the resources needed to design, produce, and deliver the merchandise to the various retail locations. Without operations, there would be no goods or services to sell to customers.

A broad range of topics in facility location, inventory, strategic sourcing, and supply chain coordination are addressed in addition to coverage of major developments within the field. The author's main position is that supply chains must be more than agile or flexible; rather, they must become protean and capable of changing shape in response to a volatile global business landscape. The author, a well-known editor and researcher in the field, presents current real-world examples combined with insights into the impact of recent trends that are expected to affect the global business landscape over the next decade. Highlighting companies with leading-edge supply chains as examples, the book discusses methods to reduce spending, increase revenues, and achieve streamlined productivity in a changing economic climate. The book utilizes further examples from the growth of online retailing and automation in distribution centers, as well as the use of protean supply chains to gain competitive advantages internationally. In addition, the book features the following ten emerging trends, which are shaping supply chain operations worldwide: The rise of regional theaters of supply Global risk management through control towers Customer segmentation Real demand realization Demand swing alignment with production and distribution Omnichannel retailing challenges Customer of one service Sustainability challenges Collaboration vs. competition in the new economy Financial dynamism The book is an ideal reference for professionals and practitioners in operations research, business/management science, applied mathematics, and industrial engineering as well as an appropriate supplement for undergraduate and graduate-level courses in supply chain management.

Book Introduction to Computational Optimization Models for Production Planning in a Supply Chain

This book was released on 2006-03-20 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: provide models that could be used by do-it-yourselfers and also can be used toprovideunderstandingofthebackgroundissuessothatonecandoabetter job of working with the (proprietary) algorithms of the software vendors. In this book we strive to provide models that capture many of the - tails faced by ?rms operating in a modern supply chain, but we stop short of proposing models for economic analysis of the entire multi-player chain. In other words, we produce models that are useful for planning within a supply chain rather than models for planning the supply chain. The usefulness of the models is enhanced greatly by the fact that they have been implemented - ing computer modeling languages. Implementations are shown in Chapter 7, which allows solutions to be found using a computer. A reasonable question is: why write the book now? It is a combination of opportunities that have recently become available. The availability of mod- inglanguagesandcomputersthatprovidestheopportunitytomakepractical use of the models that we develop. Meanwhile, software companies are p- viding software for optimized production planning in a supply chain. The opportunity to make use of such software gives rise to a need to understand some of the issues in computational models for optimized planning. This is best done by considering simple models and examples.
