1.0 Overview Intel the Microprocessor giant was started in the year 1968‚ their initial venture was to make a semiconductor computer memory by integrating large number of transistors into silicon chips. They created a revolution in the PC industry‚ by creating a bench mark and reengineered their processes to shift their focus from the saturated PC dominated industry to the Internet Communications World. From time to time many marketing tactics and strategies were implemented in order to create

Intel had been the only processor that could handle day-to-day functions at reasonable speeds. Such simple tasks as word processing and calculations‚ then later gaming and educational work‚ the processors were unable to perform. The Pentium processor was introduced in 1994; no company could compete with Intel at this point. It took until 1997‚ for

Production System Having an understanding of environmental sustainability of the complete life cycle of products and services is becoming imperative for organisations so they can comply with environmental standards and to meet the growing public expectation regarding the organisation’s role in managing their environmental impacts. But this is a complex matter and this essay critically appraises Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as a tool to provide decision-making support in improving production processes

The Need for Life-Cycle Assessment in Buildings Although LCA has been widely used in the building sector since 1990‚ and is an important tool for assessing buildings [29]‚ it is less developed than in other industries‚ including perhaps the engineering and infrastructure sector. The building industry‚ governments‚ designers and researchers of buildings are all affected by the trend of sustainable production and eco-green strategies.

Systems Development Life Cycle Model The Systems Development Life Cycle model was developed as a structured approach to information system development that guides all the processes involved from an initial feasibility study through to maintenance of the finished application. SDLC models take a variety of approaches to development. Some of these life cycle models include: The Waterfall Model: A classic SDLC model‚ with a linear and sequential method that has goals for each development phase. The

Moore left Fairchild Semiconductor International to form a new company. They took with them a young chemical engineer‚ Andrew Grove‚ and called the new firm Intel‚ short for integrated electronics. The company successfully made money by manufacturing computer memory modules. The company produced the first microprocessor (also called a “chip”) in 1971.

Eventually‚ there were three available strategies or alternatives that Intel could undertake in terms of cash disbursement policies. First‚ it could continue or expand its market-repurchase program. Secondly‚ Intel could declare dividends to its shareholders on existing stocks. The last strategy is to put together a package of two unique securities: 1) A distribution of a two-year put warrant
