Approaching Process Improvement
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2020Process improvement begins with the process view: understanding patient care from the patient's point of view. Organizations must also clearly articulate for themselves how they define operational excellence so that the tradeoffs taken in process improvement can be clearly made. Constructing a process map allows application of powerful analytical tools,

The information-processing approach
Psychological Research, 1990The information-processing (IP) approach to perception and cognition arose as a reaction to behaviourism. This reaction mainly concerned the nature of explanation in scientific psychology. The "standard" account of behaviour, phrased in strictly external terms, was replaced by a "realist" account, phrased in terms of internal entities and processes. An

A systemic approach to process modeling
Journal of Systems Integration, 1991This article presents a system’s view of a common sense management model for systems (COSMOS) [1]. Salient features of COSMOS are introduced through the unfolding story of process development of a hypothetical corporation called IM Co. This systemic view models the dynamic complexity of a system or organization so that inerrelationships, rather than ...

A Microprogrammed Approach to Signal Processing
IEEE Transactions on Computers, 1974This paper provides a summary of the design features of a microprogram controlled high speed signal processor referred to as an analyzer unit (AU). It provides an overview of the interrelationship between processing requirements, a language structure in which these requirements can be efficiently programmed, and an AU design that can efficiently ...

An Approach for Decentralized Process Modeling
2007This paper describes a method for organizations to perform process modeling in a decentralized and concurrent manner. The approach is based on the idea that modeling organizations' processes can be performed by individuals actually performing the processes.

Process modeling by process owners: A decentralized approach
Software Process: Improvement and Practice, 2007AbstractMajority of current methods for process modeling utilize a centralized approach in which a group of experts work with the agents to understand, model, and improve the organization's processes. This article proposes a novel approach for process modeling that is based on the idea that modeling organizations' processes can be performed by process ...

A Point Process Approach to Filtered Processes
Methodology And Computing In Applied Probability, 2004Let us start with a definition of a filtered process. Let \(\lambda\) be a nonnegative \(\sigma\)-finite measure on the real axis \(\mathbb R\) and \(\mu\) be a probability measure on \(\mathbb R_+\). Let \(\mathbb P\) be a Poisson point process on \(\mathbb R\times\mathbb R\) of intensity measure \(\lambda \otimes \mu\), and \(h: \mathbb R^2\times ...

Process approach to the process control
Proceedings of the 13th International Carpathian Control Conference (ICCC), 2012For process control two basic approaches are used: outside - in approach and inside - out approach. Outside-in approach is user oriented. Process is forced to satisfy user objectives. Inside-out approach is process oriented. At this process driven approach process has dominant position and conditions have been created to realize it by the most natural ...

The distributed processing approach to hospital information processing
Journal of Medical Systems, 1981Integration of heterogeneous computer-based subsystems in a hospital is examined with respect to component attributes of distributed data processing and communications technology. Requirements of system users, designers, and managers are identified for developing an integrated system.

A RISC approach to process groups
Proceedings of the 5th workshop on ACM SIGOPS European workshop Models and paradigms for distributed systems structuring - EW 5, 1992ISIS [1], developed at Cornell University, is a system for building applications consisting of cooperating, distributed processes. Group management and group communication are two basic building blocks provided by ISIS. ISIS has been very successful, and there is currently a demand for a version that will run on many different environments and ...
