he book provides an overview of all major useful frameworks (such as LEAN and Six Sigma) without over-investment in one over another, and a unique emphasis on BPM's interrelationship with organizational management, culture and leadership--BPM is about people as much as processes. Its common-sense approach teaches how BPM must be well-integrated across an entire business if it's to be successful: augmented and aligned with other management disciplines. The third edition brings Jeston and Nelis' practicable frameworks and solutions up-to-date with the latest developments in BPM, including the application of the frameworks to value-driven BPM.This new edition includes: 1. Enhanced pedagogy to help students learn and tutors use the book for their classes: now includes learning outcomes, chapter topics, learning objectives, highlighted key points, chapter summaries, critical discussion points and self-test questions; 2. New and revised case studies throughout; 3. New chapters on questions that have become more crucial since the second edition's publication: How should we start--top-down or bottom-up? Should we be customercentric? How does BPM link to today's most pertinent management and technology issues? What are the critical success factors? 4. Due to popular demand, a new and expanded section on IT in BPM; 5. A brand new companion website including slides and assignment answers. Read less

Balancing Water for Humans and Nature, authored by two of the world's leading experts on water management, examines water flows - the 'blood stream' of both nature and society - in terms of the crucial links, balances, conflicts and trade-offs between human and environmental needs. The authors argue that a sustainable future depends fundamentally on our ability to manage these trade-offs and encourage long-term resilience. They advocate an ecohydrological approach to land/water/environmental problems and advance a strong, reasoned argument for viewing precipitation as the gross fresh water resource, ultimately responsible for sustaining all terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem services. This book makes the most coherent and holistic argument to date for a new ecological approach to understanding and managing water resources for the benefit of all. Basing their analysis on per capita needs for an acceptable nutritional diet, the authors analyse predictions of the amounts of water needed for global food production by 2050 and identify potential sources. Drawing on small-scale experiences in Africa and Asia, they also cover the vulnerability of the semi-arid tropics through a simplified model of green and blue water scarcity components.

The media now regularly feature breakthroughs on the influence of prenatal hormones on the brain and behavior, for instance the link to financial performance or risk management. Based on these findings and their own experiments, the authors present the Hormonal Quotient (HQ) as a scientific, holistic and reliable career management and personal development tool for professionals. Eight HQ profiles and their corresponding typical business skills and preferences are presented and enable the reader to benchmark their HQ with peers, design an ideal career plan, build a winning team in business and find the perfect work-life balance. A complimentary website allows readers to easily measure their HQ online.;

Beton merupakan salah satu bahan konstruksi yang telah umum digunakan. Bahanpenyusun beton terdiri dari bahan semen, agregat kasar, agregat halus, air dan bahan tambah(admixture atau additive). Untuk mengetahui dan mempelajari perilaku elemen gabungan(bahan-bahan penyusun beton), kita memerlukan pengetahuan mengenai karakteristik masingmasingkomponen. Penambahan material lain akan membedakan jenis beton, misalnyayang ditambahkan adalah tulangan baja akan terbentuk beton bertulang. Di dalam penelitianini, menggunakan beton yang merupakan campuran air, semen, agregat halus, agregat kasardan serat kulit durian. Pemanfaatan limbah kulit Durian yang kembali digunakan merupakanpenanggulangan yang tepat terhadap limbah, oleh karena itu dilakukan penelitian yangbertujuan untuk mengetahui berapa besar pengurangan atau penambahan kuat tekan betonterhadap faktor keamanan suatu bangunan, untuk dapat diaplikasikan pada bangunanbangunanmasyarakat umum.Variasi persentase penambahan serat kulit durian adalah 0,5%, 1%, 1,5% terhadap beratsemen. Mutu beton K.175 dan dilakukan pengujian kuat tekan dan tarik belah.Dari hasil penelitian dan pembahasan yang telah dilakukan dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwadari hasil uji kuat tekan beton, beton dengan penambahan kulit durian 0,5 %, 1,0 %, dan 1,5% mengalami peningkatan sebesar 2,71 %, 3,29 %, dan 4,97 % dibandingkan beton normal,untuk hasil pengujian kuat tarik belah beton dengan penambahan kulit durian sebanyak 0,5%, 1,0 %, dan 1,5 % mengalami peningkatan sebesar 6,06 %, 4,55 %, dan 3,03 % dibandingkanbeton normal.

Dimethyl ether (DME) is a type of renewable energy that could replace the use of fossil fuel in Indonesia. Nevertheless, DME can cause degradation of rubber-based materials. Therefore, the performance of rubber that has been degraded by DME must be improved. This research study aims are to determine the degradation characteristics of modified vulcanized natural rubber in a DME environment. The effect of the filler (carbon black) and plasticizer (minarex-B) components of vulcanized natural rubber was examined. The vulcanized rubber samples were comprised of 10, 30, and 60 parts per hundred rubbers (phr) of filler and 0, 10 and 20 phr of plasticizer. The degradation of the mass and mechanical properties of the rubber were investigated. Degradation testing was conducted by immersing the samples inside a pressure vessel that was filled with the liquid phase of DME. The results indicate that the increasing of the filler composition reduces the impact of degradation, while the increasing of the plasticizer composition has the opposite effect. The plasticizer is needed to distribute the filler to all parts of the rubber. Consequently, a filler composition of 30 phr and a plasticizer composition of 10 phr provide a vulcanized natural rubber with optional protection against the degradation caused by DME. The characteristics of natural rubber, as measured by Fourier Transform Infra-Red Spectroscopy (FTIR) proved that DME does not damage the structure of the polymer chains, although DME may react with some ingredients in the rubber that have a similar polarity.
