A Simulation Of Composite Dispatching Rules, Conwip And Push Lot Release In Semiconductor Fabrication, Nizar Bahaji, Michael Kuhl
A Simulation Of Composite Dispatching Rules, Conwip And Push Lot Release In Semiconductor Fabrication, Nizar Bahaji, Michael Kuhl
Articles
This paper evaluates dispatching rules and order release policies in two fabs representing two wafer fabrication modes, namely, ASIC and low-mix high-volume production. Order release policies were fixed-interval (push) release, and constant work-in-process, CONWIP (pull) policy. Following rigorous fab modeling and statistical analysis, new composite dispatching rules were found to be robust for system cycle time and due-date adherence measures, in both production modes.
Classroom Interpreting And Visual Information Processing In Mainstream Education For Deaf Students: Live Or Memorex?, Marc Marschark, Jeff Pelz, Carol Convertino, Patricia Sapere, Mary Ellen Arndt, Rosemarie Seewagen
Classroom Interpreting And Visual Information Processing In Mainstream Education For Deaf Students: Live Or Memorex?, Marc Marschark, Jeff Pelz, Carol Convertino, Patricia Sapere, Mary Ellen Arndt, Rosemarie Seewagen
Articles
This study examined visual information processing and learning in classrooms including both deaf and hearing students. Of particular interest were the effects on deaf students’ learning of live (threedimensional) versus video-recorded (two-dimensional) sign language interpreting and the visual attention strategies of more and less experienced deaf signers exposed to simultaneous, multiple sources of visual information. Results from three experiments consistently indicated no differences in learning between three-dimensional and two-dimensional presentations among hearing or deaf students. Analyses of students’ allocation of visual attention and the influence of various demographic and experimental variables suggested considerable flexibility in deaf students’ receptive communication skills. …

We investigate the central regions of 23 spiral galaxies using archival NICMOS imaging and STIS spectroscopy. The sample is taken from our program to determine the masses of central massive black holes (MBH) in 54 nearby spiral galaxies. Stars are likely to contribute significantly to any dynamical central mass concentration that we find in our MBH program and this paper is part of a series to investigate the nuclear properties of these galaxies. We use the Nuker law to fit surface brightness profiles, derived from the NICMOS images, to look for nuclear star clusters and find possible extended sources in …

Another Ingredient Contributing To Recent Audit Failures: A Study Providing Insights On Management Integrity, Bruce Oliver
Articles
Integrity is evidenced through behavior. It is evidenced by actions an individual's consistent observation of a code of conduct based upon a coherent set of moral (ethical) or artistic values. It suggests such a high level of trustworthiness that it is difficult to conceive of a person being false to a trust. In an audit, beginning with evaluating of the reliability of a client's accounting control systems, the auditor relies heavily on the perceived integrity of management. Thus management integrity has the potential to significantly influence the nature and scope of the independent audit. Decision-making is influenced by personal beliefs …

Sol–Gel Derived Organic And Inorganic Hybrid Materials For Photonic Applications: Contribution To The Correlation Between The Material Structure And The Transmission In The Near Infrared Region, Mohamed Oubaha, P. Etienne And S. Calas, P. Coudray, J.M. Nedelec, Y. Moreau
Articles
A promising way of fabricating integrated optics components is based on the sol–gel synthesis and photocuring of organic-inorganic hybrid materials. However, the main factor limiting the development of passive devices is the propagation losses. Moreover, the possibility to compensate these attenuations by optical amplification is competed with the multiphonon relaxation associated to the presence of OH groups. To our knowledge, OH groups were always shown as the main responsible for attenuation at the telecommunication wavelengths, namely at 1310 and 1550 nm, although the matrix is composed of organic species which can contribute to absorptions in this spectral range. This paper …

The Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) Virgo Cluster Survey is a large program to image 100 early-type Virgo galaxies using the F475W and F850LP bandpasses of theWide Field Channel of the ACS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The scientific goals of this survey include an exploration of the three-dimensional structure of the Virgo Cluster and a critical examination of the usefulness of the globular cluster luminosity function as a distance indicator. Both of these issues require accurate distances for the full sample of 100 program galaxies. In this paper, we describe our data reduction procedures and examine the …

B2b E-Marketplaces In The Airline Industry: Process Drivers And Performance Indicators, Claudia-Maria Wagner, Bernd Huber, Edward Sweeney, Austin Smyth
B2b E-Marketplaces In The Airline Industry: Process Drivers And Performance Indicators, Claudia-Maria Wagner, Bernd Huber, Edward Sweeney, Austin Smyth
Articles
Competitive pressures are increasing within and between different strategically oriented groups of airlines. This paper focuses on the level of efficiency improvements gained by using e-Marketplaces in the procurement process. Findings from a survey among 88 international airlines reveal that the use of Business-to-Business (B2B) e-Marketplaces does play different roles across the various airline groupings. Airlines that are involved in strategic alliances show higher joint procurement activities than airlines that are not involved in strategic alliances. However, alliances are probably viewed as loose arrangements and thus airlines may be reluctant to share information on procurement prices and processes with another …

Precautions Against What - The Availability Heuristic And Cross-Cultural Risk Perception Meador Lecture Series 2004-2005: Risk And The Law, Cass R. Sunstein
Articles
Because risks are on all sides of social situations, it is not possible to be globally "precautionary." Hence, the Precautionary Principle runs into serious conceptual difficulties; any precautions will themselves create hazards of one kind or another. When the principle gives guidance, it is often because of the availability heuristic, which can make some risks stand out as particularly salient, regardless of their actual magnitude. The same heuristic helps to explain differences across groups, cultures, and even nations in the perception of risks, especially when linked with such social processes as cascades and group polarization. One difficulty is that what …

The Dynamics Of Child Sexual Abuse Prosecution: Two Florida Case Studies, Robert Levy
The Dynamics Of Child Sexual Abuse Prosecution: Two Florida Case Studies, Robert Levy
Articles
Criminal justice scholars agree that the process cannot adequately be captured simply by reporting guilty pleas, jury acquittals and convictions. Rather, one must imagine a giant cornucopia, the large end representing the huge mass of unreported and uncleared crimes, the small end representing the small number of convicted felons sentenced to prison. Between these terminal points can be found all those criminals the police decide not to arrest or refer for prosecution, all those cases prosecutors decide not to prosecute, the cases prosecutors decide to dismiss (or "nolle prosequi," often referred to as "nol pros") after they have been filed, …
The Value Of Institutions And The Values Of Free Speech, Dale Carpenter
The Value Of Institutions And The Values Of Free Speech, Dale Carpenter
Articles
Should the First Amendment pay attention to the setting in which speech occurs, giving more protection to some institutions than to others? The very suggestion is a heresy. The First Amendment, to a degree unknown elsewhere in American law, has been characterized by a certain kind of blindness. It has largely been blind to the popularity of the speech involved, blind to whether the speech is favored or disfavored by the government, and blind to the identity of the speaker. On the other hand, some institutions - the professional media, libraries, and universities, for example - are especially good at …

Sentencing Guidelines In Minnesota, 1978-2003, Richard Frase
Sentencing Guidelines In Minnesota, 1978-2003, Richard Frase
Articles
This article examines the origins, purposes, evolution, and impact of Minnesota's pioneering sentencing guidelines reform. The Guidelines, related sentencing laws, and charging and sentencing practices have evolved considerably since 1980, and so have Minnesota's reform goals. Most of these goals have been achieved: sentences are more uniform and proportionate; policy formulation is more systematic and informed by data; sentencing has been coordinated with available correctional resources, avoiding prison overcrowding and ensuring that space is available to hold the most serious offenders; "truth in sentencing" has been achieved; custodial sanctions have been used sparingly; and the Guidelines remain fairly simple to …

Articles
We have obtained Integral Field Spectroscopy for 23 spiral bulges using INTEGRAL on the William Herschel Telescope and SPIRAL on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. This is the first 2D survey directed solely at the bulges of spiral galaxies. Eleven galaxies of the sample do not have previous measurements of the stellar velocity dispersion([sigma]*) . These data are designed to complement our Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph program for estimating black hole masses in the range 10[to the 6th power] −10[to the 8th power] M⊙ using gas kinematics from nucleated disks. These observations will serve to derive the stellar dynamical bulge properties using …

Decision makers thirst for answers to questions. As more data is gathered, more questions are posed. Which customers are most likely to respond positively to a marketing campaign, product price change or new product offering? How will the competition react? Which loan applicants are most likely or least likely to default? The ability raise questions, even those that cannot currently be answered, is a characteristic of a good decision maker. Decision makers no longer have the luxury of making decisions based on gut feel or intuition. Decisions must be supported by data; otherwise decision makers can expect to be questioned …
Rfid: Revolutionizing Inventory Management Across The Supply Chain, Jack Cook, Laura Cook
Rfid: Revolutionizing Inventory Management Across The Supply Chain, Jack Cook, Laura Cook
Articles
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is revolutionizing asset tracking, inventory management, and supply chain execution. RFID has the ability to track inventory with almost no human intervention, thus offering enormous potential for better inventory management across the supply chain. This paper discusses the application of RFID within four settings: (1) health care facilities, specifically hospitals; (2) tracking pharmaceuticals from manufacturing throughout distribution; (3) managing retain supply chains; and (4) tracking personnel, assets, and inventory in the military.
Credit Cards On Campus: Academic Inquiry, Objective Empiricism, Or Advocacy Research?, Robert Manning, Ray Kirshak
Credit Cards On Campus: Academic Inquiry, Objective Empiricism, Or Advocacy Research?, Robert Manning, Ray Kirshak
Articles
Professors John M. Barron and Michael E. Staten's article in Vol. 34, N. 3 of the Journal of Student Financial Aid, "Usage of Credit Cards Received through College Student Marketing Programs," purports to "provide benchmark measures of college student credit card usage" (p. 7). Based on empirical analysis of proprietary industry data, they conclude that "There is no evidence... that young adults who received credit cards through student-marketing programs are misusing cards so frequently as to warrant singling them out as a group for special protections from marketing solicitations" (p. 25). Their key assertions, which portray on-campus credit card marketing …

Emerging Technologies And The Future Of The Accounting Profession, Thomas Tribunella, M. Pamela Neely, Heidi Tribunella
Articles
In this paper we investigate the differences between practitioner and academic interests in emerging technologies. We compare and contrast the results of a faculty survey to the AICPA's Top Technology list. It appears that academics and practitioners have significantly different interests concerning emerging technologies. Furthermore, technology interests for both groups change over time. We then discuss the problems that arise from the differing points of view and suggest some possible solutions.
Intimacy And Economic Exchange, Jill Elaine Hasday
Intimacy And Economic Exchange, Jill Elaine Hasday
Articles
The current legal debate about the regulation of economic exchange between intimates mistakenly assumes that the law does not countenance such exchange to any notable extent. This assumption is so widely held that it unites otherwise disparate anticommodification and pro-market scholars. Both groups agree that the law maintains a strict boundary between economic exchange and intimacy, and disagree only on whether to applaud or criticize that boundary. Both overlook or underemphasize the degree to which the law already permits economic exchange within intimate relationships. The current debate's focus on whether the law should enforce economic exchanges between intimates misses at …
Bad Arguments Against Gay Marriage, Dale Carpenter
Bad Arguments Against Gay Marriage, Dale Carpenter
Articles
This article claims that three common arguments against gay marriage - the definitional, procreation, and slippery-slope arguments - are quite bad, the worst of the lot. The definitional argument asserts that marriage just is the union of one man and one woman, and that the definition alone is a sufficient defense against claims for gay marriage. The procreation argument claims that marriage's central public purpose is to encourage procreation, and so the exclusion of same-sex couples is justified. The slippery-slope argument claims that the acceptance of same-sex marriage logically entails the acceptance of other public policy changes - notably the …

This chapter argues that the assumption that mainstream education—supported by sign language interpreting—can provide deaf students with fair and appropriate public education may be unfounded. It describes research that emphasizes the need to understand better the complex personal and functional interactions of students, instructors, interpreters, and settings if educational interpreting—and interpreted education— is to be optimally beneficial for deaf students.

American College of Management and Technology (ACMT) A simulation of business setting is often present in an educational environment. It helps students understand business environment and the issues businesses are facing. An upgrade of simulation of business setting in an educational environment is an educational environment placed into the real business setting. Hospitality oriented students learn about hotels. Consequently, hotel is the best business setting where hospitality oriented education could be placed.
