Describe how you would identify bottlenecks in your value stream .docxtheodorelove43763
Describe how you would identify bottlenecks in your value stream? How would you ensure sustained flow through those bottlenecks?
Answer:
The term ‘bottleneck’ (capacity constraint) comes from the area at the top of the bottle that limits the flow coming out. It doesn’t matter how big the rest of the bottle is—liquid will only flow out as fast as the size of the neck will allow.
There are two main types of bottlenecks:
· Short-term bottlenecks – These are caused by temporary problems.
· Long-term bottlenecks – These occur all the time.
Bottleneck identification in value stream:
The simplest and most logical way to identify process bottlenecks is to look for the biggest causes of stress. Consider these questions:
· Is there a routine or system that has a high level of employee stress involved in it? If there is, then it is not a well-laid out system.
· Is work continually delayed because employees are waiting for reports, products, more information or other resources?
· Is there too much work piled up at one end of the production (or service) cycle and not enough at the other end?
· Are certain departments always late in delivering needed items to both internal and external customers?
· Perform simulation of system according to flow chart of value chain
Way to eliminate bottleneck for sustained flow:
Once you identify the root cause of your bottleneck, try one or more of these ideas to improve workflow:
· Increase quality of input.-zero defect feed at bottlenecks
· Reorganize workflow
· Assign your best teams & technology at bottlenecks
· Add capacity.
· Accept partial delivery

Describe the importance of process mapping in a supply chain flow? How would you use process maps? How do you know what to focus on when creating a process map?
Answer
Supply chain mapping allows a company to identify bottlenecks by:
· providing visibility into how processes are carried out;
· identifying where the processes are executed;
· identifying who is doing what within the processes;
· revealing how processes affect other processes;
· determining why a process is being executed
· identify activities within a process that are not adding value;
Process maps are also known as flowcharts, flow diagrams, relationship maps or blueprints. Process maps can be used to create virtual model of system and performing simulations. Which will be used for analyzing bottlenecks in system , Rework pattern, Time consumption for at rework, cycle time, Inventory at various stages of system. They Can also be used to train new employees or to brief consultant about business process. Process maps can be created by Microsoft visio and eVSM add in for manufacturing unit.
When creating process maps:
· Identify All Value adding process/ activities
· Identifies value add points
· Identifies value.

This chapter explains learning and memories based on the biology. Driscoll shows some theories that human’s learning is related to the genetic inheritance and brain physiology in Biology. There are two kinds of causes to explain human’s behavior: proximate cause and ultimate cause. Ultimate cause is kind of instinctive desires our ancestors have had been formed to survive for a long time and inherited, the other one, proximate desire is related to the expression of genes or presence of certain behaviors. Ultimate cause interacted with environment leads evolution effects on conditions and cognition. Proximate cause drags on the interest of neurophysiologists, which is studied in the area of the brain with attention, learning and memory, and cognitive development.
This chapter shows that implication of evolution psychology for learning and instruction. First, human may be predisposed to certain fear but it is possible to overcome it with appropriate instructions. Second, it is very difficult to establish if behaviors are not predisposed to learn, but it also can be established using certain instructions. Third, previously adapted behaviors and “actions associated with decreased fitness in ancestral population may be difficult to overcome and establish, respectively, but if we give proper instructions to overcome and establish, it is possible.
In addition, Driscoll shows implication of neurophysiology for learning and instruction. Cognitive functions play different roles in learning and human development, the brain has plasticity naturally, the learning of language may be biologically pre-programmed and disabilities with learning may be related to neurological basis. Yet we don’t know still how the brain works to store memory and information, and what roles the brain play in learning. Many researches are ongoing to find out how we improve our faculties in learning and developing.

This chapter of Driscoll’s Psychology of Learning for Instruction evaluates the effects of biology in memory and learning. This affects are divided into two parts: evolution and neurophysiology. Evolution has an effect on cognition and conditioning. It is considered the main cause or ultimate of learning and memory. Neurophysiology is the direct cause of learning and memory. The indirect causes of neurophysiology’s effect on learning and memory are the brain and attention. Evolution and conditioning refer to the age old psychology argument nature vs. nurture. It is between what we are born knowing and what the environment gives (teaches ) us. According to Driscoll (2005), there is evidence to recommend that operant and classical conditions are subject to biological influences. The reason for that is based on the study pointed by Garcia and Koelling. They made a research on taste aversion focus on how rats regarded illness and pain.

Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
