Raman K. Attri

Big challenge trainers face in this in global and multi-country environment is to cater to needs and learning styles of students of different cultures, regions and societies attending same training course. Culture has long been known to impact preferred learning styles of people of that community and assessing learning styles of students from different culture has always been a mystery for the global trainers. This training package is first step to resolve that mystery systematically through appropriate training design and equally planned training delivery.


Problem Solving Training: Developing Training Objectives And Assessment Using Anderson's 2d Model, Raman Attri Jun 2011

Problem Solving Training: Developing Training Objectives And Assessment Using Anderson's 2d Model, Raman Attri

Raman K. Attri

Designing a problem solving based training in some specialized domain? Using bloom’s taxonomy? Not getting the results? Here is why…..All the way you may be using 1-dimesion of Anderson's revision to bloom’s taxonomy or always thinking that pyramid of cognitive processes (misunderstood as learning levels) is all that you need to design your course. This is because most of what educators were given in training consisted of a simple chart with the listing of levels and related accompanying verbs. Biggest misconception is assuming Anderson's revision to bloom's taxonomy as 1-dimensional, whereas it is indeed 2-dimension. This mostly misunderstood or forgotten …

A Systems Model To Talent Management, Staff Retention And Bench Strength, Raman K. Attri

Raman K. Attri

Numerous attempts to formalize the talent management as a strategic practice by the corporate have been mostly focused on corporate framework, policies and overall organization model and systems to drive talent management and succession planning. Mostly talent management has been presented from a HR manager’s perspective. Major issue with such approaches is that it does not provide simple to use toolset to the direct manager to manage the talent, succession planning and bench strength. The practical approach to talent management starts with right pre-hiring process, on-boarding, performance evaluation and review of long-term potential. This paper presents a practical model with …

Design Of A Reliable Remote Surface Detector Based On Ultrasonic Pulse-Transit Technique To Detect Uneven & Non-Smooth Porous Snow Surfaces, Raman Attri Sep 2005

Design Of A Reliable Remote Surface Detector Based On Ultrasonic Pulse-Transit Technique To Detect Uneven & Non-Smooth Porous Snow Surfaces, Raman Attri

Raman K. Attri

This paper discusses design control techniques used to design ultrasonic pulse echo method based remote surface detector to detect objects with porous, un-even, irregular surfaces like snow. For such surfaces there is ample possibility of scatter of reflected beam in multiple directions, absorption of ultrasonic energy within the pores and reflected energy too feeble to detect. In some cases the reflected beam may altogether miss the receiver resulting in no surface detection at all. Scatter and penetration of ultrasonic energy at such irregular porous uneven surfaces poses great difficulties in designing a reliable Remote Surface detector. In this paper, we …


Backend Framework And Software Approach To Compute Earthquake Parameters From Signals Recorded By Seismic Instrumentation System, Raman Attri Sep 2005

Backend Framework And Software Approach To Compute Earthquake Parameters From Signals Recorded By Seismic Instrumentation System, Raman Attri

Raman K. Attri

Computation of seismic parameters and its interpretation from the recorded earthquake signal is empowered by digital data acquisition systems. This enables seismologist to automatically compute all the relevant parameters. Futuristic applications require extensive software development to implement seismic prediction and forecasting models. While developing such models, software developer prefer to write their own in-house analysis & modeling software with complete control over the required computations and models. This paper presents simplified mathematical framework of the seismic events and back-end computational software logic & algorithm to provide a simple framework to software engineers develop customized seismic analysis & computation software.


Design Of Stable Narrow Band-Pass Filter Using Multi-Stage Biquad Topology, Raman Attri Sep 2005

Design Of Stable Narrow Band-Pass Filter Using Multi-Stage Biquad Topology, Raman Attri

Raman K. Attri

Band pass filtering techniques have been a challenging task due to requirement of keeping Quality factor, gain and mid-frequency of the filter independent of each other. Other most important aspect is keeping the filter stable, keeping mid-frequency immune to circuit component tolerances and to achieve the mid-frequency at the accurate value. The Biquad family of topologies are typically used for a stabilized filtering application, however the design requirements on Biquad topology for low frequency application is still a challenge. The requirements become more stringent for bandwidth curve, roll-off curve and preciseness of frequency filtering as we move down to low …
