The Muse Method for Usability Engineering

The Muse Method for Usability Engineering

Kee Yong Lim; John B. Long

Cambridge University Press
1994
sidottu
To extend the scope of human factors contributions beyond late evaluation, and so increase their effectiveness and uptake, a frequent plea is for its inputs to be more explicit, early and continuous throughout the system development process. MUSE is a method developed specifically to meet these requirements of Usability Engineering. Since its scope spans user requirements to user interface design, it supports active human factors involvement in both design specification and evaluation. MUSE defines how, what and when particular human factors concerns should be addressed; and specifies the outputs, procedures, notations and documentation involved. Intersections with Software Engineering are identified to support inter-disciplinary project planning, co-ordination and communication (including the use of a common notation). As a structured human factors method, MUSE is arguably the most advanced and complete. This comprehensive book is a text for reference and teaching, and a training manual for method application. It is essential reading for all involved with interactive system development.

Just-in-Time Logistics

Just-in-Time Logistics

Kee-hung Lai; T.C.E. Cheng

Gower Publishing Ltd
2009
sidottu
The enduring repercussions of the Asian financial crisis in 1997, the worsening global economy following the burst of the dotcom bubbles in 2001, the financial tsunami in 2008, and the incessant rise in customer demand for better services have all contributed to shrinking profit margins for businesses around the world. To cope with these challenges, firms are discovering logistics as a competitive weapon when looking for ways to strengthen and preserve their market positions. One successful solution has been the adoption of Just-in-Time manufacturing systems, which involve many functional areas of a firm such as manufacturing, engineering, marketing, and purchasing, among others. Just-in-Time Logistics extends the JIT concept in manufacturing to business logistics, an area that has been observed to account for more than 30 per cent of sales revenue for some firms. It gives you an overview and an introduction of JIT logistics, and provides managerial insights on how to achieve improved logistics performance in terms of cost and service enhancements. A discussion of the quality, implementation, and performance measurement issues related to the application of JIT in business logistics is also presented.

Building Rules

Building Rules

Kee Warner; Harvey Molotch

Westview Press Inc
2001
nidottu
Urban and suburban growth is a burning local issue for communities across the United States and many other parts of the world. Concerns include protecting habitats, high costs of infrastructure, social inequalities, traffic congestion, and more intangible worries about "quality of life." Citizens pressure public officials to intensify development regulations, flying in the face of local "growth machines." Builders and growth boosters oppose regulation as unfair and bad for local economies. Based on a systematic comparative study of urban areas in Southern California, this book provides a much-needed examination of the true impacts of local development controls, including the ways that they have and have not made a difference. The authors draw general implications for communities elsewhere and how to better understand theories of growth and urban governance.

The Pharmacology of Chinese Herbs

The Pharmacology of Chinese Herbs

Kee C. Huang

CRC Press Inc
1998
sidottu
Records cataloging the healing powers of natural substances - plants, minerals, and animal byproducts - date back more than 4,000 years. There is no denying the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine, yet - until recently - the roots of this knowledge were largely lost in superstition and folklore. However, the use of herbs as an alternative medical treatment for many illnesses has increased steadily over the last decade, particularly since such herbs are categorized as "Natural Food Products" and are not yet subject to strict control by the FDA. Reports published in 1996 indicate that more than 10% of the US population has used herbal remedies.This book does not debate the value of Eastern or Western medicine but brings together Chinese herbal lore and Western scientific methods in a current, comprehensive treatise on the pharmacology of Chinese herbs. This second edition of The Pharmacology of Chinese Herbs presents the chemical composition, pharmacological action, toxicity, and therapeutic value of 473 herbs.The book:Classifies herbs according to their therapeutic valueInforms how active ingredients in herbs may adversely interact with other herbs or drugsEvaluates which herbs have the potential for more investigation and possible use as drugsDescribes the pharmacological action of each herb based on recent scientific study and describes each herb according to Chinese pharmacopoeia and folk medicineProvides a review of Chinese medical historyPresents information on how to use modern chemical techniques for enhancing or modifying herbal ingredients into better agents with more strength and activityWhat's New in the Second EditionDiscussions on:Herbs and their specific effects on the immune systemHerbs and fertility/infertilityAnti-cancer herbsAnti-HIV herbsAnti-malarial herbsGinseng and ginsenosidesAnti-Alzheimer herbsHerbs affecting the nervous system
