Thinking tools - From top motors through s'ware proc improv't to context-driv...Neil Thompson
This document summarizes Neil Thompson's presentation on applying principles from manufacturing process improvement to software development processes. Some key points:
1. Toyota's production system and product development system emphasize continuous process flow, problem solving, visual controls, and a learning organization to drive quality and innovation.
2. Principles from Toyota, the Toyota Production System, and Eliyahu Goldratt's Theory of Constraints can be applied beyond manufacturing to areas like software development.
3. Analogies will be drawn between manufacturing concepts like value streams, constraints, and critical chains, and how they relate to software development processes and problem solving. The presentation aims to provide simple thinking tools to identify and address constraints in software development lif
The document discusses carbon and climate change. It begins by explaining that carbon is essential to life but that human emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases from the burning of fossil fuels are disrupting the natural carbon cycle and causing global warming. It notes that the atmospheric concentration of CO2 is now higher than at any time in the last 800,000 years. The document then discusses various carbon-related terms and concepts and explains why limiting global temperature rise to 2°C means that most fossil fuel reserves will need to remain unused. It concludes by discussing the need for countries like Australia to transition to a zero-carbon economy to remain competitive and prosperous in a carbon-constrained world.
The majority of Australians accept that climate change is occurring and believe Australia is already feeling the impacts. 70% say climate change is happening, up from 64% in 2012. Most think humans significantly contribute to climate change, and 89% say Australia is experiencing impacts now. Australians want stronger leadership on climate solutions, with 61% wanting Australia to be a leader, up from 52% in 2012. Support for carbon pricing and renewable energy policies is also increasing.
ASUG (Ontario SAP User Group) - Industry & Academic Partnership ROI v finalMichael Sparling
Mike Sparling, the Dean of a large business school, gave a presentation about initiatives at Seneca College to transform business education. He discussed how the relationship between schools and customers/students has changed, requiring schools to adapt. Seneca is focusing on experiential learning through partnerships with industry and applied research projects. The presentation highlighted the creation of a new Center for Big Data and Business Analysis to teach data management and analysis skills. The goal is to produce "different" graduates prepared for future business challenges and opportunities through disruptive change.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
1. The document is a mark scheme for a GCSE mathematics practice paper. It provides notes on marking principles for scoring student responses.
2. Key aspects of the mark scheme include awarding method marks (M marks) for showing working, accuracy marks (A marks) for correct answers, and follow through marks for multi-step calculations. Partial credit is given for partially correct responses.
3. The mark scheme provides detailed guidance on how to score different types of questions involving topics like algebra, geometry, statistics and probability. Specific rules are given for marking responses involving calculations, diagrams, equations and financial problems.

The document provides instructions and printable matching games for preschool learning. It explains that matching games help children learn basic concepts like colors, shapes, numbers and letters in a fun way. Parents print the games and play with their child by matching cards. Creating their own personalized games allows children to learn in a challenging but not frustrating manner based on their abilities and interests.
This document provides information about online physics courses and resources. It lists job openings in physics, opportunities to take online courses to prepare for fall classes, videos about modern physics and AP physics courses, ways to study physics for free from top universities through open courseware and online lectures, and articles about bachelor of science degrees and natural science. It also provides information about specific physics courses at MIT and a modern physics course at IYTE.
This document summarizes the impacts of climate change on Australian sport. It finds that extreme heat, changed rainfall patterns, floods and drought are challenging playing facilities and grounds across the country. Both professional and amateur athletes, as well as spectators, are feeling the effects of climate change. Average temperatures in Australia have risen 0.9°C since 1910 and the number of days over 35°C are projected to significantly increase in major cities by the end of the century. This poses health risks for athletes and others, as the human body can only tolerate core temperatures up to around 38°C before problems arise. Most sports are struggling to adapt to these changes, especially at the local level.

Getaran, bunyi, dan gelombang saling berhubungan. Getaran adalah gerak bolak balik secara terus menerus dengan melalui titik keseimbangan, dan dapat menimbulkan bunyi. Bunyi dibedakan berdasarkan frekuensinya menjadi infrasonik, audiosonik, dan ultrasonik. Gelombang adalah getaran yang merambat melalui medium, dan dibedakan menjadi gelombang mekanik dan elektromagnetik, serta transversal dan longitudinal.
