[pic] MAY 1‚ 2006 SPECIAL REPORT How does BMW motivate its employees? BMW’s Dream Factory Sharing the wealth‚ listening to even the lowest-ranking workers‚ and rewarding risk have paid off big time. The car looks like the victim of some mad scientist’s experiment gone awry. Inside a research lab in Munich‚ a BMW 5 Series sedan is splayed open‚ with electronic gadgets and wires spewing in all directions. The project: an onboard computer that will recognize you‚ then seek out information you want

calling him “the true prototype of the British colonist”(Sussman‚ p.248). In this essay I will examine Defoe’s novel taking into consideration Joyce’s comments. Crusoe represents the typical English colonist in the 18th century. For example‚ he is very interested in colonising the island‚ economics‚ capitalism and is condescending towards other people’s faiths.. It is these pieces of information that I have on Robinson Crusoe that I believe made Joyce refer to him as a “true prototype of the British

TIME SERIES MODELS Time series analysis provides tools for selecting a model that can be used to forecast of future events. Time series models are based on the assumption that all information needed to generate a forecast is contained in the time series of data. The forecaster looks for patterns in the data and tries to obtain a forecast by projecting that pattern into the future. A forecasting method is a (numerical) procedure for generating a forecast. When such methods are not based upon

Title: Resistors in Series and Parallel Date: 17/7/05 Aim: The aim of this experiment is to compare the predicted and actual resistance in a circuit of resistor combinations in series and in parallel. Background: A resistor is an electrical component/device that has electrical resistance. Resistors can be used in electric circuits for protection of components‚ voltage division or current control. In an ideal resistor the resistance remains constant regardless of the applied voltage or current
