 | 3g/4g Mobile Network Planning Aspects - Andrey , Krendzel 10 Digit ISBN: 363909011X 13 Digit ISBN: 9783639090116 | | Network planning of third generation (3G) and fourth generation (4G) mobile systems for enabling NGN services is a very complex process with many different aspects, the result of which influences on the success of network operators. The first part of the monograph deals with 3G IMS-capable Core Network dimensioning aspects such as multiservice traffic load estimation, performance evaluation of IMS nodes, etc. The second part of the monograph is focused on 4G Radio Access Network (RAN) topological design aspects to minimize expenses with the RAN deployment taking into account reliability requirements. The methodologies presented in the monograph enable establishing requirements, such as throughput of channels, performance of nodes and routers, both to the equipment of internal IP-networks in the 3G/4G mobile systems and to the gateways providing the interaction between the 3G/4G systems and external networks. Results of the research allow making easier both the preparation of business-plans for development of wide range of NGN services and the preparation of system projects for deployment of 3G/4G mobile network equipment. |

 | 4 Circles of Good Business - Christopher, Novak 10 Digit ISBN: 0978866800 13 Digit ISBN: 9780978866808 | | In the movie, Pirates of the Caribbean: Search for the Black Pearl, Captain Jack Sparrow has a very special compass. While it looks similar to an ordinary compass, Captain Sparrow's compass has a unique ability - it always points in the direction of the thing you want most. No matter his location, the needle points in the direction he needs to travel in order to find the treasure. Follow the needle and eventually you find what you are looking for. Ah, if only it were it that easy in real life If only we had an instrument that could guide us in determining the most effective course of action for any given moment of our journey. If only we could rely on one resource to identify true priorities from amid a storm of competing interests. If only we had a way to stay on course as we navigated the tempest that is today's business reality. Perhaps, now we do The 4 Circles of Good Business. The model we call, The 4 Circles Compass is akin to that very special compass - one that always points in the direction we need to move. This book introduces an easy to understand and practical approach for rediscovering what drives good business. Instead of four primary directions, the 4 Circles Compass has four critical business functions depicted as interconnected Circles - operations & management, products & services, capital & finance, and governance. These represent core considerations in any business or organization, four key areas that must guide the actions and decisions of leaders and followers alike for any business endeavor to succeed. Instead of yielding to the force of magnetic north, the 4 Circles compass is influenced by the needs of its stakeholders. The needle of our compass passes throughall four critical business functions at once but highlights the area of emphasis most aligned with stakeholder needs. As those needs change, so too will the emphasis of our actions within the 4 Circles model. |
 | 4 Elements for Reducing Stress in the Workplace - William A., Howatt 10 Digit ISBN: 1894338073 13 Digit ISBN: 9781894338073 | | Talent management is a critical strategy for the future hopes for many organizations' competitive advantage. Surveys keep warning about the looming talent shortage and how challenging it is today to not only find but to keep good people. One element that is critical in any strategic approach to talent management is understanding and recognizing the kinds of stresses that are operating throughout an organization (e.g., ineffective management, toxic workplaces, and rusted or burned out employees). Organizations continue to see rising costs in disability management, increased sick time, and greater numbers of employees applying for short-term psychological stress leave. With these rising costs organizations are taking on added financial burden that provides no direct value to profitability.Talent management programs must consider what is within an organization's control to mitigate stress. The cost of doing nothing is growing in epidemic proportions for many organizations but fortunately many are making a much more concerted effort to facilitate and promote employee health and healthy work conditions.4 Elements for Reducing Workplace Stress is Volume 7 of the Howatt HR Consulting Talent Management Series that has been developed to promote strategic talent management considerations.Volume 7 Introduces four elements that will help an organization facilitate discussions on the current level of stress within its workforce and the risks and strategies for assisting employees to manage their current stress levels. Each of the four sections has been developed to assist human resource and business leaders to discuss what their organization is doing well to reduce organizational and individualstress and what opportunities are available to make the work environment better. A core pillar for effective talent management is to retain a healthy and productive workforce.William A. Howatt, PhD, EdD, Post Doc Behavioral Science UCLA School of Medicine, is CEO of Howatt HR Consulting Inc., a strategic human resources management company. Howatt HR Consulting focuses on assisting companies to gain a significant competitive edge for their organization by minimizing risk to talent equity. This is accomplished through defining, designing, and developing talent management solutions for removing potential talent equity risks and to filling gaps. |
