...CASE STUDY Materials Management (MM) Case Study This case study explains an integrated materials management process in detail and thus fosters a thorough understanding of each process step and underlying SAP functionality. Product SAP ERP G.B.I. Release 6.04 MOTIVATION The data entry requirements in the materials management exercises (MM 1 through MM 5) were minimized because much of the data was stored in the SAP system. This stored data, known as master data, simplifies the processing of business transactions. In the procurement process, we used master data for vendors, materials (products we purchased) to simplify the procurement process. In this case study, we will create the master data for a new vendor and a new trading good. PREREQUISITES Before you use this case study, you should be familiar with navigation in the SAP system. In order to successfully work through this case study, it is not necessary to have finished the MM exercises (MM 1 through MM 5). However, it is recommended.

...Qualitative case studies in operations management: Trends, research outcomes, and future research implications Mark Barratt, Thomas Y. Choi ∗ , Mei Li Department of Supply Chain Management, W. P. Carey School of Business, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ 85287-4706, United States a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Our study examines the state of qualitative case studies in operations management. Five main operations management journals are included for their impact on the field. They are in alphabetical order: Decision Sciences, International Journal of Operations and Production Management, Journal of Operations Management, Management Science, and Production and Operations Management. The qualitative case studies chosen were published between 1992 and 2007. With an increasing trend toward using more qualitative case studies, there have been meaningful and significant contributions to the field of operations management, especially in the area of theory building. However, in many of the qualitative case studies we reviewed, sufficient details in research design, data collection, and data analysis were missing. For instance, there are studies that do not offer sampling logic or a description of the analysis through which research outcomes are drawn. Further, research protocols for doing inductive case studies are much better developed compared to the research protocols for doing deductive case studies. Consequently, there is a lack of consistency in the way the case method...

...computational study of three-dimensional turbulent flow and heat transfer was performed in four types of rotating channels. The first type is a rotating rectangular channel with V-shaped ribs. The channel aspect ratio (AR) is 4:1, the rib height-to-hydraulic diameter ratio (e/Dh) is 0.078 and the rib pitch-to-height ratio (P/e) is 10. The rotation number and inlet coolant-to-wall density ratio were varied from 0.0 to 0.28 and from 0.122 to 0.40, respectively, while the Reynolds number was varied from 10,000 to 500,000. Three channel orientations (90 degrees, −135 degrees, and 135 degrees from the rotation direction) were also investigated. The second type is a rotating rectangular channel with staggered arrays of pinfins. The channel aspect ratio (AR) is 4:1, the pin length-to-diameter ratio is 2.0, and the pin spacing-to-diameter ratio is 2.0 in both the stream-wise and span-wise directions. The rotation number and inlet coolant-to-wall density ratio varied from 0.0 to 0.28 and from 0.122 to 0.20, respectively, while the Reynolds number varied from 10,000 to iv 100,000. For the rotating cases, the rectangular channel was oriented at 150 degrees with respect to the plane of rotation. In the rotating two-pass rectangular channel with 45-degree rib turbulators, three channels with different aspect ratios (AR=1:1; AR=1:2; AR=1:4) were investigated. Detailed predictions of mean velocity, mean temperature, and Nusselt number for two Reynolds numbers (Re=10,000 and...

...Women Theft Cases in Naga City Elaine France Z. De Quiroz* and AmanteAma Engineering and Science Education Program Camarines Sur National High School Peñafrancia Ave., Naga City *Corresponding Author: allaine_euphemia18@yahoo.com Abstract Naga City is the “Heart of Bicol” and one of the first class independent component cities in the Philippines. Needed informations were gathered from the three different police stations in Naga City to observe the number of reported theft cases for the last three months of 2011 involving women suspects. After tabulating and contour mapping the datum, it was concluded that Barangay Dayangdang and Barangay Triangulo had the most number of the said case with a total of four reported cases covered by the given months. Keyword: theft 1. Introduction Naga City is stated as one of the first class independent component city in the Philippines. Being the commercial, financial, religious and cultural center of the Bicol region, Naga is the “Heart of Bicol”. [1] Theft is the unauthorized taking of other person’s property with the suspect’s intention to permanently deprive the person with rightful possession of that property. Unlike other crimes, theft is committed without forcing the victim to give its property. The act of theft is also known as stealing, thieving and filching.[2] Usually, women are the victims of crimes like robbery, theft, murder, rape and abuse. But in some cases, women are the main suspects like illegal recruiting...

...Chapter I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Conflicts among inhabitants of a community is inevitable and the necessity of establishing a formal institution such as trial courts or courts of justice, to address conflict resolution is indispensible. The establishment of this formal institutions is based on the social contract theory wherein the government is duty bound to maintain order in a community and to protect and enforce the fundamental rights of its inhabitants in exchange for the surrender of some rights of the latter. All these, follow the course of administration of justice. Administration of Justice examines the structure, function, laws, procedures, and decision-making processes of agencies that deal with crime management. Courts of justice plays a very important role in the administration of justice. Almost all countries experience problems in the administration of justice. The degree of seriousness of these problems varies depending on several factors. The most common among these problems is the increasing number of court dockets and flaws in the laws being interpreted and implemented. In the Philippines, Courts, in the administration of justice, follows a hierarchy of courts. There are four (4) levels of courts in the Philippines, wherein it is the Supreme Court that is at the apex of this four-tiered hierarchy. At the lowest level of the hierarchy are the first-level courts, consisting of the Municipal Trial Courts (MTCs), Metropolitan Trial...

...Case Study Collection Assignment Case studies may be from a variety of types of organizations (financial, advertising, manufacturing, online, service, acquisition, retention), or you may focus more specifically on an area of special interest or relevance to you. Focusing on an area is highly encouraged. Focusing on one area usually produces a higher quality article. The majority of studies should be recent (post 2008) and should contain enough detail to allow evaluation of the manner in which the use of analytics enabled the organizations to reach their goals. Eric Seigal's book as well as Davenport and Harris book are good sources for this assignment. You can also use your own research to select case studies with a common theme that may span outside of these two books. However, utilize peer-reviewed cases (for example, cases from a journal like INFORMS Transactions on Education) instead of self-published marketing cases. A minimum of 5 Cases should be discussed. Well established areas should include more than 5 articles. A summation of the case studies will display your understanding of the relationship between the theories presented in the readings and the real-life examples presented in the case studies. Questions to be addressed in the summation paper include (but are not limited to): - What was the ultimate value of the analytics for the organizations? - How was the appropriate analytic approach selected? - How was data collected, and how were data quality issues...
