...Ishikawa Research Paper Ishikawa was a university professor and an innovator of quality management, is known as the Ishikawa diagram or cause-effect diagram or fishbone diagram, used in the analysis of industrial processes and whose charts grouped by categories all the causes of problems. In 1939 Kaoru Ishikawa graduated from the University of Tokyo with an Engineering degree in Applied Chemistry. He was born in Tokyo in 1915, the oldest of eight children of Ichiro Ishikawa. His first job was as a naval technical leader, and worked there until 1941, when transferred to the Nissan Liquid Fuel Company, where he worked until 1947 before becoming an associate professor at the University of Tokyo. He received his doctorate in engineering from Tokyo University and was promoted to professor in 1960, taught at the engineering of the university. Ishikawa joined the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), an international association created to set standards for the various companies and products and that Japan had joined in 1952. Since 1977 was the chairman of the delegation of Japan. He was also chairman of the Musashi Institute of Technology in Japan. One of Ishikawa's early achievements contributed to the success of quality circles (1962). The cause-and-effect diagram or more simplistic Fishbone Diagram and perhaps the achievement for which he is best known, has provided a powerful tool that can easily be used by non-specialists to analyze and solve...

...The performance Story A Common Misunderstanding: "I'll Know Results When I See 'Em'" Employee Ed is a new employee at a print shop. He has been hired to run a machine that prints out high-quality pictures. The pictures go to other departments, including the Catalog Department, to use in brochures, catalogs, advertisements, etc. Ed's new supervisor, Supervisor Sam, is new on the job, too. He's worked hard to get where he's at. He was an expert at running the collating machine. Sam's machine took printed images from machines like Ed's and organized them into the Catalog Department's final product, a catalog. Sam doesn't like Ed at first. Ed looks just like Sam's brother whom Sam does not like at all. Still, as a new supervisor, Sam tries to give Ed a chance. Sam wants to be sure that Ed does a good job. He isn't all that sure what "good job" means, but he thinks he'll know it when he sees it. So Sam sends Ed to a course to learn how to run the print machine. The description of the course said students would learn all about the machine. That should work out fine. Training for Skills -- or a Good Time? Teacher Tom wants to convince supervisors to send employees to his course. Tom claims the result from his course is that each student will know how to run the printing machine. Tom hasn't really thought about how to achieve that result. He knows a lot about the machine and likes to tell people about it. So he thinks he'll be a fine teacher. Tom includes a lot of lectures in...

...Ledbetter Total Quality Management Professor: Harry Ekholm November 13, 2011 Dr. Kaoru Ishikawa is one of the world`s primary leader on quality control. Ishikawa has influenced quality practices throughout the world, with his education background and ideas towards Total Quality Management have sharped TQM and are still used today. Ishikawa has helped thousands of companies, including IBM, Bridgestone, and Komatsu, to turn out higher quality products at considerable lower costs. His book What is Total Quality Control? The Japanese Way, Prentice Hall, Inc. was a best seller in business books. He has been awarded the Deming Prize and the Nihon Keizai Press Prize, the Industrial Standardization Prize for his writings on Quality Control, and the Grant Award in 1971 from the American Society for Quality Control for his education programmer on Quality Control. (Japan Headquaters, 2010) Professor Ishikawa was born in Tokyo 1915 and graduated in 1939 from the University of Tokyo with an engineering degree in applied chemistry. In 1947 he was employed as an Assistant Professor at the University of Tokyo and achieved his Doctorate of Engineering. Professor Ishikawa is best recognized as an innovator of the Quality Circle movement in Japan. In the early 1960s in a speech to mark the 1000th quality circle convention in Japan in 1981, he described how his work took him in this direction. In 1968, in his role as Chairman of the Editorial Committee of Genba-To-QC (Quality Control for...

...Worksheet for Week 1: Circles and lines This worksheet is a review of circles and lines, and will give you some practice with algebra and with graphing. Also, this worksheet introduces the idea of “tangent lines” to circles. Later on in Math 124, you’ll learn how to find tangent lines to many other types of curves. 1. Two circles, called C1 and C2 , are graphed below. The center of C1 is at the origin, and the center of C2 is the point in the first quadrant where the line y = x intersects C1 . Suppose C1 has radius 2. C2 touches the x and y axes each in one point. What are the equations of the two circles? y y=x C2 x C1 Worksheet Math 124 Week 1 2. Let C be the circle of radius 5 centered at the origin. The tangent line to C at a point Q is the line through Q that’s perpendicular to the radial line connecting Q to the center. (See picture.) Use this information to find the equations of the tangent lines at P and Q below. y Q P x Note: Later in Math 124, you’ll learn how to find tangent lines to curves that are not circles! Page 2 Worksheet Math 124 Week 1 3. Sketch the circle of radius 2 centered at (3, −3) and the line L with equation y = 2x + 2.

First we need to know the formula (or algorithm) to find the area/ circumfrence of a circle. Step 6) We need to tell the user that we are going to find the area and circumfrence of a circle... so we say: print("\nNow, let's find the circumference and area of a circle...") Step 7) Next we need to get the user to input the radius of the circle that they want to find the circumfrence and area for: we need the radius to be entered as a specific type of data called a float (a number with decimals) so we type: rad = float(input("Enter radius: ")) Step 8) Now we need to compute the circumfrence: we now...

...The symbols in each movie 1) The photos in BLOOD SIMPLE are the start of all the misunderstandings. In the past Marty didn’t know anything about the fair of his wife. But after the first few pictures taken by Visser, his anger came out and he started his revenge and got involved in this nightmare. The fake picture of Abby and Ray dead in the bed also misleads Marty. When Marty was about to give Visser the money, Visser shot Marty. And Visser throw Abby’s gun in the room to create a misleading scene. These things start with the fake picture. And as Visser says, “life is very uncertain and something can always go wrong.” The appearance of the fake pictures is the moment that life goes wrong for Marty. Marty’s life was totally changed because of this fake picture. He wanted to kill Ray and his unfaithful wife, but instead he is the first one who was shot and got buried alive. Because of the photos, a series of misunderstandings begin. Ray thought Abby killed Marty and Abby thought Visser was Marty and killed him. All the twists start from these photos. Everybody was confused after this. Nobody in the movie truly knows what was happening to everybody. Even Visser, who thinks he knows everything, was also confused at the end. The photos are fake, and this tells us that everything can happen because of money. The photos can be faked, and also the relationship and everything valuable in the world can be faked and changed because of money. The photos triggered the twists and misleading...

...think on what to do with our second half of lives because we cannot put hope that we will still be working in the same organization in twenty years from now. As the saying goes, “Failure to prepare is preparing to fail.” We were taught in class the graph of life; as we are getting older, the options that are available to us are getting smaller, but the responsibilities are getting bigger. So at this young age, we need to grab any chances for the benefit of our future. As the professor said in class, “Don’t get old, alone and broke.” If we did, we might have nothing at all; even family. We do not want to be a burden to ourselves and people around us. Life is about drawing circles. If we have a great life, we will draw a perfect round circle. If we slipped somewhere, the circles drawn might not look like a circle. There are three ways to spend the second half of life. The first is to start a second and different career which is moving from one kind of organization to another. They may stay in the same kind of work, but some move into a different line of work. These people are actually happy with their first job but they need a community as the kids are grown up. They need income too but most...

... Bus The “Bus Topology” is a network setup in which each computer and network device are connected to a single cable. This type of setup is not good for large networks for many reasons. Some reasons are difficulty in troubleshooting individual devices and the entire network, the network can fail if the cable is damaged, and the more devices on the network slows down the entire network. In contrary to larger networks, this set up is perfect for smaller networks, because it requires less cable length and setting up the actual network is easier as well. Ring This network is mostly used in schools and offices, where the networks are smaller. In this setup the devices are connected to each other going in a circle shape, so that each packet must go around the circle until it reaches its destination. Data flows only in one direction at high speeds between the workstations, therefore no requirement for a server needed. In addition, the cost is a bit more expensive to connect the workstation and when a workstation shuts down the entire network will be...

The long strokes of lines and curves in the mirror by her face and around her head display a covering a sense of innocence; before she has known a man intimately. The lines in the lower area of her body in the mirror shows it is still in development as the lines are arched up and not down in a drooping manner as with age. Her body has not set firmly in position so it appears altered in the mirror just like a teenager starting puberty; one breast grows larger than the other. In her conversation with herself she knows her innocence has vanished, and a development is changing her life once again; the baby growing within her. The circles remind me of life.
