The Real-Time Revolution

Autor: Jerry Power , Thomas Ferratt

Número de Páginas: 239

Time has become a precious commodity, so business leaders who can save their customers' time more effectively than competitors do will win their loyalty. This book shows how it's done. Business survival requires valuing what customers value—and in our overworked and distraction-rich era, customers value their time above all else. Real-time companies beat their rivals by being faster and more responsive in meeting customer needs. To become a real-time company, as top scholars Jerry Power and Tom Ferratt explain, you need a real-time monitoring and response system. They offer detailed advice on how to put procedures in place that will collect data on how well products or services are saving customer time; identify strengths, weaknesses, threats, and opportunities; and specify innovations needed to save even more customer time. Where should leaders look to innovate? Powers and Ferratt say to search every step in the life of a product or service, from development to production to usage. And for each step, they identify four possible levers for innovation: the design of the products or services themselves, the process used to produce them, the data that can be gathered on their use,...

Policies and Research in Identity Management

Autor: Elisabeth De Leeuw , Simone Fischer-hübner , Jimmy C. Tseng , John Borking

Número de Páginas: 160

st The world of the 21 century is, more than ever, global and impersonal. Criminal and terrorist threats, both physical and on the Internet, increase by the day. The demand for better methods of identification and access control is growing, not only in companies and organisations but also in the world at large. At the same time, such security measures have to be balanced with means for protecting the privacy of users. Identity management is put under pressure, due to the growing number of frauds who want to hide their true identity. This challenges the information security research community to focus on interdisciplinary and holistic approaches while retaining the benefits of previous research efforts. In this context, the IFIP Working Group 11.6 on Identity Management has been founded in August 2006. The intention of the Working Group is to offer a broad forum for the exchange of knowledge and for the tracking and discussion of issues and new developments. In this, we take an interdisciplinary approach. Scientists as well as practitioners, from government and business, who are involved in the field of identity management are welcome to participate. The IDMAN 2007 Conference on...

Difficult Decisions in Pediatric Surgery

Autor: Mark B. Slidell , Marion C.w. Henry

Número de Páginas: 560

Pediatric surgery is a demanding specialty that requires not only technical expertise but also exceptional clinical judgment and adaptability. Pediatric surgeons frequently encounter rare congenital anomalies and unusual surgical problems, often requiring them to make difficult decisions with limited precedent. Even well-recognized congenital conditions can present in atypical ways, necessitating a patient-centered approach that may deviate from routine practice. This places a premium on a surgeon’s ability to apply broad surgical principles to novel and complex situations, tailoring interventions to each child’s unique anatomy and pathology. Compounding this challenge is the rapidly evolving literature in pediatric surgery, where new techniques, evolving guidelines, and emerging technologies continually reshape best practices. Thoughtful interpretation of the literature is essential, particularly when the optimal approach to a problem remains unclear or controversial. Pediatric surgeons must not only stay abreast of these developments but also critically analyze and synthesize data to make sound, evidence-based decisions in the face of uncertainty. The Difficult Decisions in...
