Value Stream Mapping: Facilitator Guide

Mapping the Total Value Stream A Comprehensive Guide for Production and Transactional Processes

Mapping the Total Value Stream A Comprehensive Guide for Production and Transactional Processes

Mapping the Total Value Stream defines and elaborates on the concepts of value stream mapping (VSM) for both production and transactional processes. This book reshapes and extends the lessons originally put forward in a number of pioneering works including the popular Value Stream Management for the Lean Office. It reinforces fundamental concepts and theoretical models with real-world applications and complete examples of the value stream mapping technique. To educate VSM mappers on the specific mechanics of the technique the text provides in-depth explanations for commonly encountered situations. The authors also provide a more complete perspective on the concept of availability. While they discuss availability of equipment in transactional processes they extend the concept by elaborating on availability as it applies to employees. The calculation of process lead time for work queues is taken to an advanced level � not only is the calculation of this lead time explained but the text also covers the very real possibility of having more work in the queue than available time. While previous books have focused on only production process VSM or transactional process VSM this work meets the real needs of both manufacturers and service sector organizations by dealing with both types. It goes beyond explaining each scenario to teach readers what techniques are commonly applicable to both and also explains areas of difference so that mappers will be able to readily adapt to whatever unique situations present themselves. | Mapping the Total Value Stream A Comprehensive Guide for Production and Transactional Processes

Rapid Bioassessment of Stream Health

Rapid Bioassessment of Stream Health

Tasked by the Clean Water Act to restore and maintain the integrity of their waters state and local governments must develop systems for assessing the health of the streams within their borders. They quickly find that one size does not fit all when it comes to sampling. Rapid Bioassessment of Stream Health examines the sampling techniques laboratory methods and data analysis necessary to create a protocol for analyzing the health of streams using rapid bioassessment techniques. The editors explore how to determine reference streams in each ecoregion and subecoregion with specific indices of health. They provide field methods for monitoring and sampling invertebrates and laboratory methods for subsampling. The work focuses on the application of the EPA’s Rapid Bioassessment Protocol (RBP) but suggests various techniques that can be used to improve sampling protocols and quality control where necessary. It also includes general listings of health classifications appendices of more than 300 streams that have been sampled and a GIS method for designating the reference condition for purposes of comparison in each ecological unit. Although the EPA’s RBP Manual is considered to be the standard of information on the types of metrics that can be used this book explores from a state regulatory standpoint the practical development of such a system to begin compliance with critical sections of the Clean Water Act. A compendium of information about prioritizing those streams and small rivers requiring analysis this book contains guidelines on the assessment of streams in a particular ecoregion and sampling streams that are at least impaired as points of comparison. It supplies guidance for the production of other rapid bioassessment tools customized to various ecoregions and subecoregions.

III–V Compound Semiconductors Integration with Silicon-Based Microelectronics

III–V Compound Semiconductors Integration with Silicon-Based Microelectronics

Silicon-based microelectronics has steadily improved in various performance-to-cost metrics. But after decades of processor scaling fundamental limitations and considerable new challenges have emerged. The integration of compound semiconductors is the leading candidate to address many of these issues and to continue the relentless pursuit of more powerful cost-effective processors. III-V Compound Semiconductors: Integration with Silicon-Based Microelectronics covers recent progress in this area addressing the two major revolutions occurring in the semiconductor industry: integration of compound semiconductors into Si microelectronics and their fabrication on large-area Si substrates. The authors present a scientific and technological exploration of GaN GaAs and III-V compound semiconductor devices within Si microelectronics building a fundamental foundation to help readers deal with relevant design and application issues. Explores silicon-based CMOS applications developed within the cutting-edge DARPA programProviding an overview of systems devices and their component materials this book:Describes structure phase diagrams and physical and chemical properties of III-V and Si materials as well as integration challengesFocuses on the key merits of GaN including its importance in commercializing a new class of power diodes and transistors Analyzes more traditional III-V materials discussing their merits and drawbacks for device integration with Si microelectronicsElucidates properties of III-V semiconductors and describes approaches to evaluate and characterize their attributesIntroduces novel technologies for the measurement and evaluation of material quality and device propertiesInvesti | III–V Compound Semiconductors Integration with Silicon-Based Microelectronics

Forestry Economics A Managerial Approach

Forestry Economics A Managerial Approach

Forestry Economics introduces students and practitioners to the economics of managing forests and forest enterprises. The book adopts the approach of managerial economics textbooks and applies this to the unique problems and production processes faced by managers of forests and forest enterprises. What many future forest and natural resource managers need is to understand what economic information is and how to use it to make better business and management decisions. John E. Wagner draws on his 30 years of experience teaching and working in the field of forest resource economics to present students with an accessible understanding of the unique production processes and problems faced by forest and other natural resource managers. The second edition has been updated to include: Expanded discussion of compounding discounting and capital budgeting as well as an expanded discussion of when to replace a capital asset that has (i) costs but no direct revenue stream such as a machine; (ii) costs and a direct annual revenue stream such as a solar array; or (iii) costs and a periodic revenue stream illustrated by the forest rotation problem. New practical examples to provide students with applications of the concepts being discussed in the text most notably on New Zealand and a Radiata Pine (Pinus radiata) Plantation. A brand-new chapter that develops business plans for for-profit businesses to illustrate how a business plan is derived from the economic information contained within the Architectural Plan for Profit and how it can be used to make business decisions about continuing to operate a business or to start a new business. This textbook is an invaluable source of clear and accessible information on forestry economics and management not only for economics students but also for students of other disciplines and those already working in forestry and natural resources. | Forestry Economics A Managerial Approach
