Benchmarking, Temporal Distribution, and Reconciliation Methods for Time Series (Lecture Notes in Statistics)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In modern economies, time series play a crucial role at all levels of activity. They are used by decision makers to plan for a better future, by governments to promote prosperity, by central banks to control inflation, by unions to bargain for higher wages, by hospital, school boards, manufacturers, builders, transportation companies, and by consumers in general. A common misconception is that time series data originate from the direct and straightforward compilations of survey data, censuses, and administrative records. On the contrary, before publication time series are subject to statistical adjustments intended to facilitate analysis, increase efficiency, reduce bias, replace missing values, correct errors, and satisfy cross-sectional additivity constraints. Some of the most common adjustments are benchmarking, interpolation, temporal distribution, calendarization, and reconciliation. This book discusses the statistical methods most often applied for such… [detailed...]

Beneath The Surface of Change: Five Essential Elements for Increasing Productivity

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: People take ownership in what they understand, and act on what they believe. Managers are expected to be good critical thinkers using analysis and understanding business needs, but too often this expectation is not extended to workers – those who own the business process. What happens if workers think like good managers? The idea is to create `best-of-thinking` to facilitate best-in-class performance throughout a team or group, helping owners and managers change their firm`s level of performance and gain comfort in their own level of control. Critical thinking is an element of productivity in managing one`s work. Those closest to the work should be encouraged to look for ways to improve the way work is done. This only happens if workers are given the tools to think like good managers. This creates change. Change is multi-dimensional. What… [detailed...]

2005 y.

Yet, in September 1780, in collusion with the beautiful Tory agent Peggy Shippen and British spymaster John Andre, he attempted to betray George Washington, the Marquis de Lafayette, Alexander Hamilton, and the critical fortress of West Point into Royal hands. This devastating plot came within a hair`s breath of succeeding, and the fragile infant American cause was only saved by the chance intervention of three ofthe humblest and most improbable heroes ever to grace the annals of history. Exciting and dramatic, the tale of the Arnold conspiracy recounts the most perilous moment in the birth of the new nation, and plumbs the depths and the heights of human nature. Now, in the historically accurate play, Benedict Arnold, noted scientist and author Robert Zubrin brings this incredible and still meaningful story back to life. [detailed...]

Bengal in Global Concept History: Culturalism in the Age of Capital (Chicago Studies in Practices of Meaning)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Today people all over the globe invoke the concept of culture to make sense of their world, their social interactions, and themselves. But how did the culture concept become so ubiquitous? In this ambitious study, Andrew Sartori closely examines the history of political and intellectual life in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Bengal to show how the concept can take on a life of its own in different contexts. Sartori weaves the narrative of Bengal’s embrace of culturalism into a worldwide history of the concept, from its origins in eighteenth-century Germany, through its adoption in England in the early 1800s, to its appearance in distinct local guises across the non-Western world. The impetus for the concept’s dissemination was capitalism, Sartori argues, as its spread across the globe initiated the need to celebrate the local and the communal. Therefore, Sartori concludes, the use of the culture concept in non-Western sites was driven not by slavish imitation of… [detailed...]
