group dynamics were such that we did not effectively utilize the resources we had‚ and consequently pooled a very limited amount of information. Rather than minimizing our risk‚ we increased it. I attribute much of our group’s failure at this simulation to process loss‚ which is defined as the problems that arise from lack of effective coordination among group members. A number of factors at play could explain the process loss which led to our counterintuitive results. First and foremost‚ one must

With PAN technology a user will be able to organize a collection of personal electronic products (their PDA‚ cell phone‚ laptop‚ desktop‚ MP3 player‚ etc.) to automatically work together. For instance the contact manager and calendar in the PDA‚ laptop‚ and desktop could all automatically synchronize whenever they are within range of each other)

Pricing Simulation During twelve months‚ starting in October‚ we were responsible for setting the pricing strategy of Universal Rental Car Company‚ as the district manager for the Florida region of Orlando. It was a big role as Florida was the company’s worst performing region and had two major problems: “Stock outs”‚ which used to occur during demand peaks‚ and “unsold inventory”‚ which occurred in demand valleys. Furthermore‚ we had to deal with the competitor in an intense price war‚ as the customers

Age Simulation Reaction I often times sit back and think of myself as elder later on in life. So many thoughts come to mind about my physical appearance; not so many thoughts in regards to my own mindset or the mindset of others that surround me‚ both seniors and young people. I have never been a person to care how others feel about me‚ but this one day in particular when I was put in the shoes of an elderly person my world was turned upside down by the words‚ looks‚ and thoughts of others.

consider the system complexity that in many cases is hard to capture. If the system’s simulation is appropriate‚ we can then provide practical feedback to real systems‚ time compression or expansion‚ higher control‚ and lower costs. Thus‚ one question emerges: why is it necessary to simulate traffic (road network)? In order to give an answer to this query we have to keep in mind the system’s complexity. Traffic simulation is necessary because this kind of application domain is inherently complex‚ usually

I feel as if moms are a large portion of P&G’s customer base so it is important for the company to know their opinions are their products. This will also help P&G keep up with their consumers changing wants and needs in order to continue their success. I also think that it is a good idea that they ask mothers to promote their other products through word of mouth. By being part of the Vocal Point‚ it creates a relationship
