Cycle Time Reduction

2006 13th Asia Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC'06), 2006
In today's competitive market, customer needs quick solutions with minimum cost, with out compromising the quality. Five years back, the average project cycle time was 4 to 6 months (was measured in months) and currently it is between 8 to 16 weeks (is measured in weeks). In near future, this will be measured in days.

The cycle time distribution in a cycle of Bernoulli servers in discrete time

Mathematical Methods of Operations Research, 1996
Summary: In a cycle of Bernoulli servers in discrete time the equilibrium distribution for a customer's round-trip time is shown to be of product-form and is given in explicit formulas. The results are used to obtain the equilibrium flow time distribution for an open tandem of queues.

Time-to-Degree and the Business Cycle

2007
When students themselves enjoy large degrees of freedom in determining the duration of their studies, it results in a fairly large degree of interindividual variance in terms of time-to-degree. This paper investigates individual time-to-degree in a model where students determine the optimum time-to-degree whilst weighing up the cost against the ...

The measurement of pupil cycling time

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2000
To assess the influence of pupil size on pupil cycling time (PCT), a measure which may be elongated in cases of neurological disease.Clinically, pupil "cycling" is produced by focusing a slit-lamp beam on the pupil margin. A rhythmic contraction and dilation of the pupil is produced, as changes in pupil size alternately prevent and allow the light beam

TIME DELAYS AND THE UNDERWRITING CYCLE [PDF]

open access: possibleRomanian Economic and Business Review, 2008
We shall consider the concept of time delays and the extent to which this is a common feature in many general insurance systems. We shall then present an example of a model of an insurance system with delays that helps to explain the phenomenon of underwriting cycles.

Timing Cycles of Permanent Pacemakers

Cardiology Clinics, 1992
A clear understanding of the components of the pacemaker timing cycles is crucial to understanding and interpreting paced electrocardiograms. The information given in this article provides basic rules for timing cycles for pacing modes currently in use and pacing modes less frequently used but of importance in understanding current timing cycles ...

IMAGINARY REPRESENTATIONS OF TIME CYCLES

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
Two studies and 2 experiments, designed to investigate visual imaginary representations for day, week, and year time cycles, were reported. Incidence of such representations, incidence of subjective distortion, and two sources of suggestibility were also investigated.

Time's Arrow, Time's Cycle

2006
No part of the world has been affected more by globalization in recent decades than Southeast Asia. This has led many observers to believe that the regions present experience with globalization is at once unprecedented, inevitable, and irreversible. Professor Peter A.

Cycle Exercising in Time with Music

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1994
Different forms of exercise with a cycle ergometer in time with music were studied in comparison: exercise in time with a rhythm or with music at constant and movement-controlled music tempos, with simultaneous arm and leg work, and with leg work alone.

Time, age, and the life cycle

American Journal of Psychiatry, 1979
Psychologists are increasingly interested in the life cycle as the unit for study and in such questions as whether adult development, like child development, is to be perceived as a succession of stages. A stage theory of adult life seems oversimplified for several reasons.
