...The Paper-Free Process Revolution Handbook Automating your manual (and paper-centric) processes will revolutionize your business—making it faster, flexible, and more responsive Edited and written by Betsy Fanning and Bryant Duhon Introduction Let’s get this straight from the beginning; using less paper isn’t just about “going green” or saving the rain forest. Using less paper in your business processes will revolutionize your business—making it faster, flexible, and more responsive to the needs of your customers. At least since the Sumerians wrote down transactions on baked clay tablets, documents have been the foundation of business. And while we no longer need to lug around those heavy clay documents (and watch out for water); if you’re using paper to manage your business then you aren’t any more efficient—or faster—than a civilization that existed 4,000 years ago. It doesn’t have to be this way. The technology is available. More importantly, the technology works. We have been scanning documents and moving them around business electronically for over 25 years; and that’s a good start. But, to match the pace of business today; content must be mobilized and harnessed for business use as soon as possible. Advances in scanning speeds, declining prices, and imaging and recognition software have combined to dramatically improve the concept of the digital mailroom—converting those inbound paper documents to digital format to directly feed business process; accounts payable...

...The topic of choice that I chose to write about for my short report paper is Earthquakes. I chose earthquakes because I am fascinated by them, and would like to learn as much information as I can about them. I have found out that these are phenomenons of nature and I am going to enlighten you on what the causes are behind them, the tools we use to track them, and some of the worst ones that have ever happened in history. The following paragraphs will be a complete review of all of the information I have found. I hope you enjoy my paper and let’s get started. First off let’s ask ourselves do we really know what an earthquake is? Not many people do but they have heard of them before, and know that they can be catastrophic. “An earthquake is a sudden and violent shaking of the ground caused by pieces of the crust that violently shift.”( ) Now let’s ask ourselves do we know what causes an earthquake? I have found that what causes an earthquake to form is that when the pieces of our earths four major layers move around they bump into each other, and we call these pieces tectonic plates. The edges of these plates which we call boundaries are made up of faults, these faults are most of the earthquakes in the world today occur. Since the edges of the plates are rough they get stuck together while all the other plates are moving. And then finally when the plates have moved to far from these edges that is when an earthquake will occur. () So how does this movement of these plates...

...Last year, I spent six months participating in what I was told was a psychological experiment. I found an ad in my local paper looking for imaginative people looking to make good money, and since it was the only ad that week that I was remotely qualified for, I gave them a call and we arranged an interview. They told me that all I would have to do is stay in a room, alone, with sensors attached to my head to read my brain activity, and while I was there I would visualize a double of myself. They called it my “tulpa.” It seemed easy enough, and I agreed to do it as soon as they told me how much I would be paid. The next day, I began. They brought me to a simple room and gave me a bed, then attached sensors to my head and hooked them into a little black box on the table beside me. They talked me through the process of visualizing my double again, and explained that if I got bored or restless, instead of moving around, I should visualize my double moving around, or try to interact with him, and so on. The idea was to keep him with me the entire time I was in the room. I had trouble with it for the first few days. It was more controlled than any sort of daydreaming I’d done before. I’d imagine my double for a few minutes, then grow distracted. By the fourth day, however, I could manage to keep him “present” for the entire six hours. They told me I was doing very well. The second week, they gave me a different room with wall-mounted speakers. They told me they wanted to see if I...

...Reporting Julie Mercer Strayer University Chapter One Introduction This chapter consists of research ideas relating to eXtensible Business Reporting Language or XBRL, also how the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are moving towards this type of reporting. The chapter consists of context of the problem, statement of the problem, research question and sub-questions, significance of the problem, research design and methodology, and organization of study. The chapter will also include a tentative reference list. Context of the Problem There is a time limit as to when an organization has to report financials to the SEC. There are several forms that are required to be filed to the SEC by public organization, for the purpose of this research paper we will focus on quarterly statements (10-Q) and yearly statements (10-K). For the 10-Q the organization has forty-five days, after each of the first three quarter ends to file the report with the SEC and ninety days, after the fiscal year end. (Yuille, n.d.) Given the time-frame organizations have to report the quarterly earnings, it would seem to be enough, but let us look at an organization that has an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, along with Hyperion Financial Manager (HFM). The ERP system captures data from all the locations, if the organization has more than one, this information is then fed into the HFM system, at...

This paper discusses the shortcomings which were noticed by manufacturers which initiated a chain of constant innovation and improvement. It also gives useful insights on the evolution of television and its positive/negative impact. Introduction Growth is the only evidence of life (Newman, 2010). This statement holds true not only for life but for other things as well. As people evolved, the things surrounding them also did. It won’t be an exaggeration to say that electronics developed out of proportion; since, every day something new is added to the market. Everything boils down to creating value for the customer, all the research and development done by companies is to understand the need of consumers and create a product or service which caters to their need. (Armstrong, 1996) The extent to which a business organisation goes to know their customers is baffling. Coke actually knows how chilled the Can should be when it comes out of the vending machine, it knows how many people like to have coke with their breakfast. Companies go a long way to understand their consumers so that they can provide value, satisfaction and quality. This paper studies how televisions developed over the years, how the needs and wants of consumers changed and what efforts did ...

...of a consumer. This paper develops a seasonal ARIMA model with exogenous variables (SARIMAX) to predict day-ahead electricity prices in Elspot market, the largest day-ahead market for power trading in the world. Compared with the basic ARIMA model, SARIMAX has two distinct features: 1) A seasonal component is introduced to cope with weekly effect on price fluctuations. 2) Exogenous variables that exert influence on electricity prices are incorporated to make price predictions in the context of an integrated energy market. A detailed implementation of SARIMAX for Elspot market in Sweden is presented. Index Terms-- Seasonal ARIMA model, exogenous variables, electricity market, price prediction, time series Claes Sandels, Kun Zhu, Lars Nordström Royal Institute of Technology Department of Industrial Information and Control System Osquldasväg 12, 7 tr., 100 44 Stockholm,Sweden In the Elspot market, time series models have been widely applied to make predictions on future prices. Its effectiveness has been validated by case studies in Nord Pool Spot market [2] and some of its bidding areas [3]. A. Purpose The aim of this paper is to study the Elspot price dynamics in Sweden and its interactions with relative variables (wind power, hydropower, gas and crude oil). A seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average model with exogenous variables, SARIMAX model, shall be developed to describe meaningful characteristics of price dynamics and predict the next-day price based on historical...
