...Assalamualaikum. In my opinion the design and layout will surely give a huge impact not only to the employees of the restaurant but also to the customer. A restaurant should have a good design and layout as it is very important component that will generated the flow and profit of the restaurant. A restaurant should a have design and layout that is suitable with the concept of the restaurant as it will create the image of the restaurant and attracting the customer to come to the restaurant. For example like if the restaurant want to apply the casual dining concept than they have to make sure to create a restaurant that have a relaxed and friendly environment. Imagine that if the restaurant want to apply the casual dining concept but the design is like at the Mamak stall concept then it surely will make the customer does not want to come to the restaurant. It is because they want to feel a relaxing and comfortable environment but could not experienced the situation because of the environment of the restaurant. The owner of the restaurant should also not to create a design and layout that are unique and attractiveness but also must remembered whether the design are suitable for the flow of the restaurant employees or not. The good workflow will surely make the employees to do their job effectively and smoothly especially when serving the customer. A good design and layout of the restaurant is very important in order to attract the customer to come and also will create the image of...

...Annotated Bibliography-- Set/Stage Design "Shakespeare & Elizabethan Stage Sets." No Sweat Shakespeare. Web. 29 Mar. 2016. This article discusses the differences between set design nowadays versus set design during Shakespearean times. Today, the stage is set to resemble the location the scene is set in, and the audience can easily picture where everything is happening. This is what is referred to as ‘realism’. Earlier times were different, in that the playwrights would often write set imagery into the script, encouraging the audience to image it for themselves. Aside from an occasional piece of furniture, the stage was often bare and could be the location for anywhere in the world. This relates to my topic of set design because it shows the differences between the realism used today versus the imagery used during Shakespearean plays. This source is reputable because it isn’t giving an opinion on anything, it is simply stating the facts of how Shakespeare would have most likely set the stage for his plays. "Shakespeare's Theater." Folger Shakespeare Library. 2014. Web. 29 Mar. 2016. This web article discusses how the stage and arena was designed to give the audience the full experience at shows. The majority of playhouses that showed performances were multi-sided structures with an open yard for people to stand or sit on. Also in the facility were ~3 tiers of covered seating, and a raised up stage on one end. The article also discussed the transition from outdoor...

... Sony® Blu-ray Disc/DVD Home Theatre System N590 In this critique I will analyze the organization, layout, written and visual instructions of the Sony® Blu-ray Disc/DVD Home Theatre System. I. Organization The user manual for the Sony® Blu-ray Disc/DVD Home Theatre System was well organized. The table of contents helps users search for specific topics which comes in handy especially for people like me who like to skip around for what they need instead having to read the entire manual. The one downfall about the organization is that is doesn’t have a picture of the product on the cover page. Although we know what a Blu-ray/DVD system looks like and it should automatically have the correct manual in its box, there may be an instance where that has not happened or if you misplaced your original manual and need another. The photo would come in handy especially if there is a certain layout that this particular has as opposed to other models. Having the photo is further reinforcement that you have the correct product. II. Layout The layout of this manual is standard. The warning sections and intial operating instructions are seen in most user manuals. Something that used to be uncommon which we are seeing more often in user manuals is the unpacking section. This section further details the parts of the entertainment system piece by piece. The remainder of the layout includes more standard sections such as how to operate each source, sound adjustments, settings, and...

...I picked the panel at the top right of page 103. I picked this panel because of its use of a bleeding gutter and mildly abstract art which slowed down time. It is a silent panel that generates a sense of timelessness and leaves the reader ingrained in this simple rectangle of art. Because of its lack of speech balloons and context, it leaves an endless amount of room for the reader to use closure and create any story they want to. The use of the bleeding gutter is the main reason I picked this panel. I like that it makes it seem as though the time in the panel could stretch on forever without being interrupted. The bleeding gutter also sets a mood of silence and cogitation. It leaves the readers mind stuck in that moment contemplating...

...Developing Layout Strategies Operations Management Abstract This paper examines the effects that a winning layout strategy can have on a firm in gaining a competitive advantage. I will first identify the seven types of layout strategies, and point out the purpose and importance of each layout strategy and touch upon the advantages and disadvantages of each. I will discuss considerations for each layout design along with the reasons to use each particular layout. I will cite four existing real-life examples of each using a different layout strategy to attain an advantage. I cite the example of how BMW is using an assembly line customization to improve profitability, the office layout trends of today to reduce costs and improve employee productivity, the recent trend in the hotel industry to redesign their lobby layout to increase revenue, and the Skecher’s warehousing layout strategy to reduce handling costs. Finally, I will conclude that an outstanding and effective layout strategy will give a firm a competitive advantage. Layout strategy is a critical part of an operations manager’s strategy decision. In this paper, I will identify and define the different types of layout, explain how to attain a good layout to have a productive process and how to balance production or service flow in many various service or product oriented industries. The proper strategic importances of layout decisions, the types of layout, layout design considerations and superior layouts to consider...

...which influences numerous aspects of an organization, including capacity planning, layout of facilities, equipment and design of work systems. Process selection is primarily used during the planning of new products or services that is subject to technological advances and competition. Process selection is dependent on the company's process strategy, which has two main components: capital intensity and process flexibility. Capital Intensity is simply the combination of equipment and labor that an organization uses to accomplish some objective. Process Flexibility is as its name implies: how well a system can be adjusted to meet changes in processing requirements that are interdependent on variables such as product or service design, volume of production, and technology. Facility Layout is simply the way a facility is arranged in order to maximize processes that are not only efficient but effective towards the overall organizational goal. It is also dependent on process selection. Within those two categories, you will also learn about technology, operations tour, process strategy, designing product layouts, and designing process layouts.

...Input Controls Input controls are the interactive components in your app's user interface. Android provides a wide variety of controls you can use in your UI, such as buttons, text fields, seek bars, checkboxes, zoom buttons, toggle buttons, and many more. Adding an input control to your UI is as simple as adding an XML element to your XML layout. For example, here's a layout with a text field and button: ------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="horizontal"> <EditText android:id="@+id/edit_message" android:layout_weight="1" android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:hint="@string/edit_message" /> <Button android:id="@+id/button_send" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/button_send" android:onClick="sendMessage" /> </LinearLayout> Each input control supports a specific set of input events so you can handle events such as when the user enters text or touches a button.

...What a great question to ask which browser do you use? Well I looked at the falling browsers Safari, Firefox, Chrome, and Opera. I would have to say Opera is the one that seemed to work best for me. I am on OS X, and have switched from Safari due to Apple not fixing an issue with Safari on Snow Leopard (the option to block cookies doesn’t actually block all cookies on Snow Leopard Safari since an update about a year ago, and Apple still has not fixed it). When that occurred, I tested out several browsers to see which "felt right" to me in overall user interface, speed, resource usage, and security. Opera was the winner. Firefox is very bloated on OS X, as is Chrome. Firefox has many extensions and is always undergoing updates. Chrome is speedy, but Google's "Big Brother" act has turned me off to them as a company (and, yes, I know I can opt out, but that doesn't make it feel any less ire). Both Firefox and Chrome have useful and fun extensions, though, and for a while that is what made me nearly choose Firefox (again, Chrome was out). I kept Safari around just for the Reader and Read Later functions built into the browser, and once I found similar extensions for Firefox I almost went with it as the browser of choice. Then came the resource hog issues and the slow browsing experience, and, sometimes, the crashes. Firefox would always crash. I would be browsing for thirty minutes or so and it would keep crashing. There was Opera, a browser nearly as speedy as Chrome...

...The three browsers that I would be speaking of are Mozilla Firefox , Google Chrome and Opera. These three browsers are the main browsers on the market at the present point in time they are all used world wide and are used by millions each between themselves as individual browsers. They are all supportive of cross platform use Windows Os , Mac Os and Linux Os and can also be used on portable devices such as tablets and cell phones. Opera being the older of the three has been around for quite some time in fact since 1994 when it was started as a research project at Telenor a Norwegian telecommunications company. In 1995, the project branched out into a separate company named Opera Software ASA, and launched a version in 1996.Opera has made many upgrades since then, and introduced notable features such as Speed Dial. The Opera browser was named MultiTorg up until version 2.0 and was not available to the public. Opera was known for its multiple document interface (MDI) and 'hotlist' (sidebar), which made browsing several pages at once much easier as with the other 2 browsers Mozilla and Chrome In February 2013, Opera Software announced that their proclaimed rendering engine, Presto, would be phased out in favour of WebKit which is carried also by Mozilla and Chrome.[4] Opera 15 saw the browser being fully rewritten, with this and subsequent releases being based on Blink and Chromium Os. Even with as many features carried Opera browser is recommended for slower and earlier...

...All of my comparisons are limited due to the fact that during this SLP I was forced to switch to a government laptop that I was unable to download browsers to. My primary personal browser is Google Chrome. I choice to use this browser after it was introduced to me by a friend several years ago. I appreciate the simplicity of it and it’s functionality. However, upgrades over the years have changed the interface considerably and made certain things like internet options hard to locate at times. I have had minor issues with the browser seeming to crash however, it is hard to tell if it is the browser itself or the computer that is causing the problems. I have an appreciation for the fact that I am able to identify multiple home pages and every I open up the browser all of the pertinent pages are immediately available for me to access. Overall, Chrome has been a great browser with only minor issues. At work I use Internet Explorer. I have found no issues with this browser and believe the only reason I don’t use it personally is for a change of scenery. Explorer seems to offer all of the same functions that Chrome has as well as the occasional crash. Because the Air Force remains loyal to Microsoft, the one plus to Explorer is that it is the only browser that will operate all of the online applications that the Air Force requires we use. Other than this minor detail, I have found no difference in the functionality. Another browser that I’ve been able to experiment...

...Which Browser is Best: Determining the Benefits to Each Browser Which Browser is Best: Determining the Benefits to Each Browser The purpose of this research paper is to take the reviews from users to help highlight both the positives as well as the negatives of the top four widely used Internet browsers, which will ultimately help determine which browser is the best available for consumers to use. The purpose of this study is to determine which browser is the best out of the four, and to highlight the best features from each browser, and determine their significance on how each feature is. The significance of the study is to analyze the information given on each browser and translate it into information that Internet users can take away to help them determine which browser is the best one for them between Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. The Internet has become more readily available across the globe which has caused many software developers to create their own Internet browser. In the past couple of years there has been a flood of Internet browsers available for use (Bidgoli, 2009). When the Internet was only available in select countries there was only a select number of browsers that a user could use to access the Internet. The Internet is only going to become available to more people which will most likely bring more Internet browsers to the market. There are currently millions of users that are accessing the Internet daily and each browser...
