To Analyze the Use of Statistical Tool/S for Cost Effectiveness and Quality o...iosrjce
Companies can lose money because they fail to use significant opportunities to improve product
quality as well as product cost. In order to survive in a competitive market, reduce cost of product by improving
the quality and productivity of product is must for any company.
The objective of this study is to provide system/instructions and methodology to reduce cost of product by
implementing statistical tools in local plastic injection molding company. Injection molding Company deployed
some part of the “Seven Basic Tools” to improve the quality of the product used by our society and reduce cost
of the product. Companies may reluctant to their quality status and customer satisfactory status without
implementing any helping tool which may reduce cost by identifying and decreasing number of defects and
consequently improving product quality and productivity of the system/process. Statistical techniques like
“Seven Basic Statistical Tools” (SPC) provides a very valuable and cost effective way to meet these objectives.
The principle aim of this study is to train quality personnel that how to use these SPC tools and exploit these
data in Pareto analysis, control Chart, Cause & Effect Diagram and histogram analysis. The causes of nonconformity
and root causes of quality problems were specified and possible remedies were proposed to
organization to overcome their problems. Some significant Improvement was also observed after SPC
implementation in Process potential capability (Cp), Process Actual Capability (Cpk) and Defective parts per
million (DPM)
Every day, the Big Data phenomenon becomes more relevant in the computing area. An example of this is the massive amount of data generated by social media today. Along with this comes the problem of how to handle this large amount of data and, particularly, how to recognize the occurence of patterns in it. The latter is currently partially resolved thanks to the Data Stream Managenemt Systems (DSMS), which are the systems developed for querying massive flows of data. The issue with DSMS is that they do not work over a defined theoretical basis, but they are more focused on implementation. As consecuence, the given results are sometimes ambiguous and the systems are incomparable among each other. To solve this problem, in this work we propose a framework for DSMS. First, we propose a general query language which has the most common operators used by DSMS. Second, we define different query semantics based on the results expected by the DSMS users. Third, we propose an evaluation model of the queries based on Match Automata which will allow future analysis of this theoretical framework.

How to Keep Your Lists Clean and Improve Deliverability
Ideally, your email list would be populated exclusively with the email addresses of people who are actively engaged with your brand and want to receive your emails. However, this is impossible to achieve if your list is comprised of invalid, unverified email addresses. Mistakes happen, people mistype email addresses. But this can lead to increased bounces, which can have a tremendous impact on your deliverability.
Mailbox providers monitor the addresses to which you are sending and will filter or ultimately block your mail if you send to invalid addresses and experience high bounce rates. So what can you do to ensure you maintain a high quality list and inbox placement?
In this webinar, you will learn:
• The importance of maintaining a clean and validated subscriber list
• How to monitor your unknown user rates to gauge your list quality
• Why cleaning your list at point of capture can have a big impact on deliverability
• How Real-Time Email Validation can help ensure you send only to verified subscribers and beat the bounce for good

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
