Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Performance evaluation is no longer seen as an automatic process that follows a simple administrative algorithm. The major objective of the cognitive approach to the evaluation of professional performances is to reduce the possible distortions in assessments, to get out of the sterotypes frequently associated with assessments (cultural or professional), to minimize the systematic errors of assessment. Performance management system is a much broader term that considers a series of independent processes, attitudes and behaviors or a correct strategy for improving performance. Performance management is a way to achieve much better individual and organizational results, by understanding and managing performance in a unitary and contextual business environment or the objectives of standards set in advance, in particular.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Diesel engine generators are the major power source for small communities in cold regions of the world. About one-third of their fuel energy is wasted in the form of heat through exhaust gas in these types of generators. This book describes research done to capture part of the waste heat from the exhaust gas and improve the efficiency of the system. A gas to liquid heat transfer performance of a concentric tube heat exchanger with corrugated tubes and twisted tape inserts is described by considering its effects on engine performance and economics. This type of heat exchanger is expected to be inexpensive to install and effective in heat transfer, with minimal effect on exhaust emissions of diesel engines. Most previous research has investigated liquid to liquid heat transfer in corrugated tubes at low Reynolds, not gas to liquid heat transfer. But this book presents results of the Solid Works Flow Simulation computer program for gas to liquid heat transfer.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Companies must balance scale, which creates cost-saving opportunities, and flexibility, which often incurs incremental costs. Following extensive cost structure analysis and mapping of the company¿s supply chain network, a comprehensive Mixed Integer Linear Programming model was created. The model¿s objective function is cost minimization, which it must attempt considering ¿current-state¿ inputs and multiple operational constraints. The results suggest that a hybrid production planning strategy between ¿level-production¿ and ¿demand-chase¿ is preferred, and can generate significant cost savings. In summary, this strategy can help companies enhance their efficiency and reduce costs when optimizing the total end-to-end supply chain, instead of using department-based budget management.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.
