Process Improvement Essentials
Author: James R. Persse, PhD
Publisher: "O'Reilly Media, Inc."
ISBN: 0596553846
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
Today, technology has become too much a part of overall corporate success for its effectiveness to be left to chance. The stakes are too high. Fortunately, the idea of 'quality management' is being reinvigorated. In the last decade process programs have become more and more prevalent. And, out of all the available options, three have moved to the top of the chain. These three are: The 9001:2000 Quality Management Standard from the International Standards Organization; The Capability Maturity Model Integration from the Software Engineering Institute; and Six Sigma, a methodology for improvement shaped by companies such as Motorola, Honeywell, and General Electric. These recognized and proven quality programs are rising in popularity as more technology managers are looking for ways to help remove degrees of risk and uncertainty from their business equations, and to introduce methods of predictability that better ensure success. Process Improvement Essentials combines the foundation needed to understand process improvement theory with the best practices to help individuals implement process improvement initiatives in their organization. The three leading programs: ISO 9001:2000, CMMI, and Six Sigma--amidst the buzz and hype--tend to get lumped together under a common label. This book delivers a combined guide to all three programs, compares their applicability, and then sets the foundation for further exploration. It's a one-stop-shop designed to give you a working orientation to what the field is all about.

Master Plans and Minor Acts
Author: Shakirah E. Hudani
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226832724
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
"How might a devastated and divided country, undergoing accelerated urbanization and growth, find its way to an equitable future? What is the role of the city as a terrain for reconciliation and redistribution, and who determines the contours of such processes? These questions are at the heart of Shakirah Hudani's Master Plans and Minor Acts, a detailed examination of the regeneration of post-genocide Rwanda and its capital city of Kigali. While studies of reconciliation in Rwanda have for the most part focused on the national level, Hudani argues that much of the actual work of repair has been in rebuilding Kigali and urban centers around the country. Hudani therefore shifts our perspective to the level of the city: where, through years of fieldwork, she has observed on-the-ground negotiations over material redistribution, dispossession, and rebuilding in the wake of the country's civil war and 1994 genocide. This work of reconciliation at the city and neighborhood level, she shows, has been significantly impacted by efforts to reconstruct the city through largescale master planning, often involving international finance and expertise. Through an examination of this national-urban dynamic, Hudani shows that reconciliation in Rwanda has been, and continues to be, primarily a socio-material and spatial process, consisting of negotiation over property, homes, and the right to urban space"--
