Scheduling (production processes)Scheduling is the process of arranging, controlling and optimizing work and workloads in a production process or manufacturing process. Scheduling is used to allocate plant and machinery resources, plan human resources, plan production processes and purchase materials. It is an important tool for manufacturing and engineering, where it can have a major impact on the productivity of a process. In manufacturing, the purpose of scheduling is to keep due dates of customers and then minimize the production time and costs, by telling a production facility when to make, with which staff, and on which equipment.
Gestion de portefeuille de projetsLa gestion de portefeuille de projets (GPP) est la discipline traitant des projets pris d'un point de vue global dans un but de sélection et d'arbitrage. Alors que la gestion de projet s'attache à « bien faire les projets » - domaine de l'opérationnel -, la gestion de portefeuille de projets vise à « faire les bons projets » - domaine du décisionnel. La gestion de portefeuille de projets s'inspire des théories modernes de la gestion de portefeuille financière desquelles cependant elle diffère sur de nombreux points : liquidité des actifs, utilisation de scoring dans l'évaluation des opportunités plutôt que de modèles mathématiques notamment.
Talk radioTalk radio is a radio format containing discussion about topical issues and consisting entirely or almost entirely of original spoken word content rather than outside music. They may feature monologues, dialogues between the hosts, interviews with guests, and/or listener participation which may be live conversations between the host and listeners who "call in" (usually via telephone) or via voice mail. Listener contributions are usually screened by a show's producers to maximize audience interest and, in the case of commercial talk radio, to attract advertisers.
