Download or read book Zero Time Zero Mistake Zero Cost written by F. B Enn and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books have been written with respect to either time management, quality control/assurance, cost control or the likes. However, if you apply them in isolation, you may compromise either time, quality or cost. As a result, many people just accept the so called balance between time, quality and cost. To the writer, that balance is not good enough. So for the first time, a book is written with the view to acquire the three important values in totality and achieve excellence with the introduction of the terms zero time, zero mistake, zero cost and a problem solving principle. Chapter 1 will explain the philosophies behind the problem solving principle uphold by this book. Chapter 2 will illustrate the ingredients of this problem solving principle i.e. the formulas such as "the next definite step", "discontinue the work", "what we want ultimately", etc. which were derived from the philosophies explained in Chapter 1. Chapter 3 will explain how the formulas stated in Chapter 2 were applied in piece meal basis to manage fast track projects by some reputable companies in the world. Chapter 4 will illustrate how the formulas are integrated to form a simple but yet effective and efficient problem solving principle. The ways on how this problem solving principle can be applied to solve simple to complicated problems are explained in Chapter 5 This problem solving principle is also flexible such that you can integrate it with your way of thinking to manage time, quality and cost the way you want.

Download or read book Business Administration for Students Managers written by Lawrence Mensah Akwetey and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent times, there has been an unprecedented increase in awareness of environmental issues by businesses around the globe. The extent to which this awareness has been created hinges significantly on the customer's perception of businesses' responses to environmental issues such as climate change, global warming, effects of business-gas-emissions on the ozone layer, etc. The growth of some businesses, and indeed the whole industrial society, has been based on the confidence reposed in human ingenuity and its ability to develop new technologies to meet human needs and, more recently, to solve the climate and environmental problems brought about by previous technological developments, particularly those used by businesses and giant industrial houses. In essence, the question that all the above brings to the fore is, should the approach of businesses to these objectives of continued and sustainable growth be at the expense of our climate or the environment? One of the primary reasons why businesses use more nuclear power plants for their energy supplies today is to combat global warming and climate change, as nuclear power is said to be relatively free of carbon emissions. Business Administration for Students & Managers covers various topics traversing eight major subject areas in Business Administration, including: - The International Business Environment - Human Resource Management - Financial Management and Marketing Management - Managing Operations and Information Communication Technology - Business Process Reengineering and Logistics Supply Chain Management This approach is intended to bring together, for the benefit of all students and managers of businesses, all the major business topics/functions under one umbrella. Business Administration for Students & Managers is intended for the first international business courses of study at both the undergraduate and the Master of Business Administration (MBA) levels. It holds the key to the efficient business or management remits of business personnel such as Chief Executive Officers, Managing Directors, General Managers, Company Secretaries and Corporate Board of Directors. Others include the functional managers of businesses or organisations such as Finance, Environmental Protection, Information Technology, Human Resource, Production, Marketing and Operations managers.
Download or read book Error Calculus for Finance and Physics written by Nicolas Bouleau and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2003 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with propagation of errors on data through mathematical models with applications in finance and physics. It is interesting for scientists and practitioners when studying the sensitivity of their models to small changes in the hypotheses. The book differs from what is usually done in sensitivity analysis because it yields powerful new tools allowing to manage errors in stochastic models as those used in modern finance.
Download or read book Foundations of the Pricing of Financial Derivatives written by Robert E. Brooks and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-01-25 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible and mathematically rigorous resource for masters and PhD students In Foundations of the Pricing of Financial Derivatives: Theory and Analysis two expert finance academics with professional experience deliver a practical new text for doctoral and masters’ students and also new practitioners. The book draws on the authors extensive combined experience teaching, researching, and consulting on this topic and strikes an effective balance between fine-grained quantitative detail and high-level theoretical explanations. The authors fill the gap left by books directed at masters’-level students that often lack mathematical rigor. Further, books aimed at mathematically trained graduate students often lack quantitative explanations and critical foundational materials. Thus, this book provides the technical background required to understand the more advanced mathematics used in this discipline, in class, in research, and in practice. Readers will also find: Tables, figures, line drawings, practice problems (with a solutions manual), references, and a glossary of commonly used specialist terms Review of material in calculus, probability theory, and asset pricing Coverage of both arithmetic and geometric Brownian motion Extensive treatment of the mathematical and economic foundations of the binomial and Black-Scholes-Merton models that explains their use and derivation, deepening readers’ understanding of these essential models Deep discussion of essential concepts, like arbitrage, that broaden students’ understanding of the basis for derivative pricing Coverage of pricing of forwards, futures, and swaps, including arbitrage-free term structures and interest rate derivatives An effective and hands-on text for masters’-level and PhD students and beginning practitioners with an interest in financial derivatives pricing, Foundations of the Pricing of Financial Derivatives is an intuitive and accessible resource that properly balances math, theory, and practical applications to help students develop a healthy command of a difficult subject.

Download or read book Error in Economics written by Julian Reiss and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-04 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the correct concept behind measures of inflation? Does money cause business activity or is it the other way around? Shall we stimulate growth by raising aggregate demand or rather by lowering taxes and thereby providing incentives to produce? Policy-relevant questions such as these are of immediate and obvious importance to the welfare of societies. The standard approach in dealing with them is to build a model, based on economic theory, answer the question for the model world and then apply the results to economic phenomena outside. Data come in, if at all, only in testing a limited number of the model's consequences. Despite some critical voices, economic methodology too has by and large subscribed to a "theory first" approach to applied economics. Error in Economics systematically develops an alternative to the theory-based orthodoxy. It places the methodical study of evidence at the centre of the scientific enterprise and thus provides a foundation for a methodology of evidence-based economics. But the book does not stop at the truism that claims should be based on the best available evidence. Rather, detailed studies in the areas of measurement, causal inference and policy analysis show what it means for a claim to be evidence-based in the context of a concrete case. The examples discussed concern topics as diverse as consumer price indices, radio spectrum auctions, the transmission mechanism, natural experiments on minimum wages and the evaluation of counterfactuals for policy. Error in Economics is essential reading for economic methodologists, philosophers of science and anyone interested in how claims about socio-economic matters are validated.
Download or read book Applied Digital Signal Processing written by Dimitris G. Manolakis and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-21 with total page 1009 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master the basic concepts and methodologies of digital signal processing with this systematic introduction, without the need for an extensive mathematical background. The authors lead the reader through the fundamental mathematical principles underlying the operation of key signal processing techniques, providing simple arguments and cases rather than detailed general proofs. Coverage of practical implementation, discussion of the limitations of particular methods and plentiful MATLAB illustrations allow readers to better connect theory and practice. A focus on algorithms that are of theoretical importance or useful in real-world applications ensures that students cover material relevant to engineering practice, and equips students and practitioners alike with the basic principles necessary to apply DSP techniques to a variety of applications. Chapters include worked examples, problems and computer experiments, helping students to absorb the material they have just read. Lecture slides for all figures and solutions to the numerous problems are available to instructors.
