Ohno’s approach to production was anything that did not provide immediate value to the customer was considered a waste of resources and subsequently eliminated. This revolutionized Toyota’s manufacturing procedures and inspired many modern project management styles used today. Eric Ries, author of The Lean Startup, applied…

Additionally, it is expensive to use. Therefor, Chemotherapy should not be used as the first line of defense in cancer treatment. Instead, health care providers should encourage the use of Targeted Therapy. Chemotherapy drugs are made from mustard gas derivatives…

By utilizing heat transfer from the hot combustion gases we can determine temperature distribution in the nozzle. If the temperature distribution and heat flux which are time dependent are given on the surface of wall we can find internal temperature distribution. This problem can be classified as direct heat problem. However many heat transfer problems which occur in practical take transient measurements at more than one location to find heat flux and temperature distribution on the wall. This…

INTRODUCTION Language is a process of free creation; its laws and principles are fixed, but the manner in which the principles of generation are used is free and infinitely varied. Even the interpretation and use of words involves a process of free creation. - Noam Chomsky Chomsky’s quote designates language, but it can also be redirected towards the use of Stylistic Devices, otherwise known as figurative language. These “devices”, have some fixed rules or one may say formulae by the means…

The role of oxysterols in human body and disease 1. Introduction Oxysterols are 27-carbon derivatives of cholesterol created by spontaneous or enzymatic oxidation (Figure 1, (Brown and Jessup, 2009)). The oxidation of cholesterol occurs either on the side chain or on the sterol core. Side chain oxidation generates, e.g., 24-hydroxycholesterol (24-HC), 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) or 27-hydroxycholesterol (27-HC) while the core oxidation gives rise to ring oxysterols, mostly ring-B oxysterols,…

Hypothetical CDS. According to theory highlighted above, usage of derivatives theoretically should reduce bid-ask spread in NPL portfolio market. In order to examine this theory, hypothetical CDS was priced using real-world data for both CO date and most recent 2017 date. CDS form is selected following Italian securitization law where CDS was used as the guarantee. However, a single-name derivative is priced (versus basket CDS applied in Italian securitization law). As an underlying asset of…
