Planning and budget measuring by return on intangibleJAYARAMAN IYER
The document discusses overhauling budgeting by measuring return on intangible assets rather than return on investment. It proposes rating companies on a scale of 0-5 based on their policies, value systems, and adherence to policies and values, which would indicate their "intangible value capital". This aims to encourage investment in sustainable companies focused on quality over short-term profits. The document also discusses relating compensation and valuations to the mass added by companies' intangible capital. Overall it argues that focusing on intangible assets can improve market stability and confidence by prioritizing sustainability.

The document also covers disclosure ratios, relationship stages, and ending relationships.
A Similarity Measure for Large Color Differencesnmoroney
Hundreds of large color differences, of magnitude 20 DeltaE00, were generated and used in a visual sorting experiment. The process of generating these color differences and two specific experiments are described in detail. The results show that small color difference metrics, such as DeltaE00, do not consistently model the visually sorted differences for large differences. A new similarity measure, based on a cosine similarity between categorical vectors of colors, is described and used to more consistently model large color differences. This similarity metric can be used to better characterize large color errors during reproduction, for image processing operations such as segmentation or as a feature for content retrieval. The new measure can also be applied to visual phenomena, such as categorical perception, in which within category color differences are perceived as smaller than across category differences.
Matsqui/Swift - Differentiation and EngagementFaye Brownlie
This document summarizes an engagement and differentiation workshop for teachers. It discusses how to increase student engagement through giving students voice and choice, and how to differentiate instruction through varying the content, processes, products, and learning environments. Specific examples are provided of lessons that incorporate gallery walks, collaborative writing activities, and connecting reading to real-world experiences to engage students with varied abilities.
This document discusses input/output (I/O) concepts in operating systems. It covers I/O devices and controllers, principles of I/O software including device independence and uniform naming. Memory-mapped I/O, direct memory access, and interrupts are described. Page replacement algorithms like not recently used and first-in first-out are introduced. The document also examines disk hardware components, formatting, and scheduling algorithms. Error handling and stable storage concepts for disks are summarized. References for further reading on operating system concepts are provided.
This document discusses job scheduling and scheduling algorithms in operating systems. It covers the goals of scheduling which include mimicking kernel threads' functionality in user space for better performance and avoiding unnecessary user-kernel transitions. The document also discusses scheduling for CPU-bound versus I/O-bound processes, shortest job first scheduling in batch systems, and round robin scheduling with priority classes in interactive systems.
Residents are responsible for enjoying living in the community and following association rules, while homeowners also pay monthly fees. The board manages the association on behalf of homeowners by ensuring resident well-being, providing leadership, engaging the community, setting priorities, and ensuring compliance with laws and documents. The board performs executive functions like managing vendors and assessing progress.
Cost-effective approach to full-cycle vulnerability managementSasha Nunke
The document discusses an automated and cost-effective approach to vulnerability management for small and medium businesses. It recommends automating network topology mapping, vulnerability assessments, reporting, and remediation workflows through a ticketing system. This allows businesses to prioritize security tasks while reducing the workload through automation. Periodic scanning, automated report generation and a closed-loop ticketing system for patching are key parts of the recommended approach.
The document introduces Muhammad Faizan Sherwani, a man from Khokrapar, Pakistan who now lives in Stockholm, Sweden. It provides hints about his hometown, upbringing in Karachi, and current location before revealing his name. It then shares that Faizan has an unfortunate story and provides contact information for those wanting to donate to charity in his name.
La Unión Europea ha propuesto un nuevo paquete de sanciones contra Rusia que incluye un embargo al petróleo. El embargo prohibiría las importaciones de petróleo ruso por mar y por oleoducto, aunque se concederían exenciones temporales a Hungría y Eslovaquia. Este sería el sexto paquete de sanciones de la UE contra Rusia desde la invasión de Ucrania a finales de febrero.
Crowdology is an online panel owned by Redshift Research with over 120,000 UK members. It provides fast turnaround surveys with deep demographic profiling of members. Rigorous quality controls include trap surveys to identify fraudulent respondents, minimum standards for survey design, and compliance with privacy standards.
The document discusses Manuel Castells' theory of the informational society and how it relates to concepts like capitalism, class relations, power structures, and identity. It provides examples of how Walmart and local preservation campaigns illustrate tensions between global networks, inclusion/exclusion, and assertions of local identity. The reading assignment asks students to consider how macro social and political structures shape the character of cities through interactions of class, gender, and the exercise of power.
The document summarizes perspectives from a panel of finance directors on successful collaborations in the biopharmaceutical industry. The panel emphasizes clear communication, understanding partners' perspectives, resolving disputes internally, and adhering to collaboration agreements while considering real-world flexibility. It also provides examples of specific company collaborations and financial arrangements.
The document discusses color perception and different theories about color opposites. It notes that historically, theories have differed on whether the opposite of green is red or yellow, and the opposite of purple is yellow or blue. Modern psychological color order systems generally agree that the opposite of green is red and the opposite of purple is a yellow-green. The document also examines how color opposites are represented mathematically in different color models.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
