Introduction The subject of performance measurement is encountering increasing interest in both the academic and managerial worlds. This‚ for the most part‚ is due to the broadening spectrum of performances required by the present-day competitive environment and the new production paradigm known as Lean Production or World Class Manufacturing (Hall et al.‚ 1991). In addition there is the need to support and verify the performance improvement programmes such as Just-in-Time‚ Total Quality Management

Experiment 1: Errors‚ Uncertainties‚ and Measurements Laboratory Report Margarita Andrea S. de Guzman‚ Celine Mae H. Duran‚ Celina Angeline P. Garcia‚ Anna Patricia V. Gerong Department of Math and Physics College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas España‚ Manila Abstract Measurements‚ defined as a comparison with a standard‚ are essential in the study of physics. However‚ all measurements are prone to errors. There are two sources of errors: systematic errors random errors.

This can be measured when we perform our observations. By measuring a patient’s respiratory rate‚ oxygen saturations‚ peak flow (in asthma patients)‚ pulse rate‚ systolic and diastolic blood pressure‚ core temperature‚ blood sugar‚ pupil reaction and Glasgow coma scale. All these combined measurement can give us an insight into the patient’s

People Can’t Succeed In Life without Education In recent years‚ the ratio of quitting education in high-schools and universities improves. A lot of students think they can get some jobs without education. They want to do anything that can give them more knowledge than in school. Besides‚ many wealthy people over the world have never graduated from any universities‚ even though they stopped studying in high-school. Young people see it as examples for their life. A number of people think education

Experiment 3 Method of Flow Measurement Objective To demonstrate typical flow measurement devices for incompressible fluids: (1) venturi meter‚ (2) orifice plate and (3) rotameter. To compare the difference in flow rate incurred by each of these device. Overview In engineering and industrial practice‚ fluid measurement of many of the variables and properties‚ such as density‚ viscosity‚ pressure‚ velocity‚ flow rate and etc is one of the problems most frequently encountered by engineers

What Would Life Be Like Without Music? Life without music would be as boring as a T.V. that only shows one color or a house that has only one room. In other words life without music would be dull. If there were a choice to have music in our lives and not have music in our lives I would definitely choose to have music in my life. I would choose to have music in my life for many reasons: to have something to enjoy whenever I want to‚ it can prepare me for anything‚ and I can turn it off whenever

amazing to see how computer come into our lives in just several decades. It is impossible to imagine a day without working on our computers or spending time with the computers. Mainly there are two reasons regarding for this enormous change because of the rising popularity of computers. The most important reason is that it makes our lives easier. First‚ we experienced this ease in the education life. When students research on the Internet instead of going to the library‚ they can reach enormous resources

was laboratory techniques and measurements. The purpose of this lab was to familiarize ourselves with different techniques used in the lab‚ taking proper measurements‚ and how to use the International System of Units (SI). Throughout lab we learned about mas‚ volume‚ length and temperature‚ and to be able determine density and concentration. To be able to documents properly and make effective observations we must be able to understand the International Measurement System. Length‚ temperature‚ time
