...selforganization wireless communication network through multi-hop relay. Thus it authentically achieves the purpose of ‘monitor anywhere and anytime’. The basic function of sensor network is gathering and sending back the information of the monitoring areas which the relevant sensor nodes are set in. But the sensor network node resources are very limited, which mainly embodies in battery capacity, processing ability, storage capacity, communication bandwidth and so on. Because of the limited monitoring range and reliability of each sensor, we have to make the monitoring areas of the sensor nodes overlapped when they are placed in order to enhance the robustness and accuracy of the information gathered by the entire network. In this case, certain redundancy in the gathered data will be inevitable. On the way of sending monitoring data by multi-hop relay to the sink nodes (or base stations) which are responsible to gather the data. It is necessary to reduce the redundant information by fusion processing. Data fusion is generally defined as a process that lots of data gathered from multiple sources or information are processed and combined in order to achieve more efficient data and ones that can better meet the requirements of the users. In most applications of wireless sensor network, sometimes we only concern about the monitoring results rather than gathering a lot of original data. Data fusion technology is an efficient method...

...Detailed Scheduling and Planning Terminology Action message | An output of a system that identifies the need for, and the type of action to be taken to correct, a current or potential problem. Examples of action message in an MRP system include release order, reschedule in, reschedule out, and cancel. Syn: exception message, action report. | Activation | Putting a resource to work | Aggregate planning | A process to develop tactical plans to support the organization’s business plan. Aggregate planning usually includes the development, analysis, and maintenance of plans for total sales, total production, targeted inventory, and targeted customer backlog for families of products. The production plan is the result of the aggregate planning process. Two approaches to aggregate planning exist:1) production planning and 2) sales and operations planning, sales plan. | Advanced planning and scheduling (APS) | Techniques that deal with analysis and planning of logistics and manufacturing during short, intermediate, and long-term time periods. APS describes any computer program that uses advanced mathematical algorithms or logic to perform optimization or simulation on finite capacity scheduling, sourcing, capital planning, resource planning, forecasting, demand management, and others. These techniques simultaneously consider a range of constraints and business rules to provide real-time planning and scheduling, decision support, available-to-promise, and capable-to-promise capabilities...

...to spend a year outside their traditional career paths to glean the best of change, innovation, and leading-edge business practices that could potentially transform DoD business and operational practices. To date, 65 corporate fellows have gone on to form a cadre of Service leaders, knowledgeable in the organizational and operational opportunities made possible by revolutionary changes in information and other technologies. To prepare for the fellowship, the fellows spend four weeks in training. Specifically, participating in lectures on current political and military topics such as strategies, technologies, and process improvement methodologies; meeting with senior DoD officials, Congressional delegates, business executives, etc; as well as taking part in a one-week graduate-level business overview provided by the University of Virginia’s Darden Graduate School of Business Administration. Following the fellows’ corporate assignment, formal outbriefs are provided to approximately forty senior leaders across OSD and the Services regarding their observations and recommendations. Traditionally, these outbriefs include sessions with the Secretary, Deputy Secretary, Service Secretaries and Chiefs, as well as other senior officials. As a member of the 2004-2005 SDCFP, it was an honor and pleasure to be assigned at Cisco Systems in San Jose, CA. Without exception, the men and women...

...Chapter 10 THE PRODUCTION BUSINESS PROCESS TEACHING TIPS I usually gloss over the materials on job costing, for my students have covered job costing in their Cost/Managerial course. I do emphasize the need for good ledger control over property, plant, and equipment. THE PRODUCTION BUSINESS PROCESS Production Planning and Control. A sales order or sales forecast cause the creation of production orders which specify items that should be produced. Materials are requisitioned and production is scheduled. Items are produced, inspected, transferred to finished goods inventory, then transferred to shipping to complete the process. Basic production requirements are provided by the bill of materials and master operations list. Resources available for production are communicated to the production control function through inventory status reports and factor availability reports. The production order serves as authorization for the production departments to make certain products. Materials requisitions are issued for each production order to authorize the inventory department to release materials to the production departments. Production status reports are periodically sent from the production departments to the production control function. Cost Accounting Controls. Job costing is a procedure in which costs are distributed to particular jobs or production orders. In process costing, costs are compiled in process or department accounts by periods (day, week, or month).The cost accounting department...
