1 Secondary data analysis: an introduction All data are the consequence of one person asking questions of someone else. (Jacob 1984: 43) This chapter introduces the field of secondary data analysis. It begins by considering what it is that we mean by secondary data analysis‚ before describing the type of data that might lend itself to secondary analysis and the ways in which the approach has developed as a research tool in social and educational research. The second part of the chapter considers

CHAPTER 2 SYSTEM ANALYSIS 2.1 INTRODUCTION Systems analysis is a process of collecting factual data‚ understand the processes involved‚ identifying problems and recommending feasible suggestions for improving the system functioning. This involves studying the business processes‚ gathering operational data‚ understand the information flow‚ finding out bottlenecks and evolving solutions for overcoming the weaknesses of the system so as to achieve the

measures widely used to measure complexity in manufacturing systems. With reference to this second framework‚ two indexes were selected (static and dynamic complexity index) and a Business Dynamic model was developed. This model was used with empirical data collected in a job shop manufacturing system in order to test the usefulness and validity of the dynamic complex index. The Business Dynamic model analyzed the trend of the index in function of different inputs in a selected work center. The results

The senses transmit sensory information’s‚ in the form of electrochemical impulses‚ to the brain. Different forms of energy stimulate the sensory receptors – the nerve endings and cells that detect sensory information. The sensory receptors then initiate neural impulses. Sensation occurs when the neural impulses arrive at the cerebral cortex. Neural impulses that begin in the optic nerve are sent to the visual areas of the cerebral cortex‚ and we see objects. Each person’s unique perception results
