identify supply chain practices prevailing in the Hospitals and the HealthCare Industry and to simultaneously ascertain the digital assets and IT solution that are used in the industry. • Study and map the drivers and barriers in implementation of Information Technology solutions to the needs of logistics and supply chain management function in the Health care sector. • To understand the benefits of Digital Assets in the supply chain of the industry and make recommendations based on the best practices
the levels of convenience in using existing products and services. By acquiring PayPal, eBay greatly enhanced the ease with which customers can pay for their products. Google keeps an innovative approach towards search engines, by introducing Google Maps, Google Translate and others, which improves the ease of usage. Using online live chatting systems and social networks contributes to understanding of customers. It also adds value and improves customers’ stickiness to website (Booth, Roberts, and
methods to reduce carbon emissions. The purpose of this report is to explain in brief to the Senior Management of a hypothetical supply chain company on how carbon emissions are being reduced. This report is structured in way to cover all areas of logistics management from sourcing of raw materials from suppliers to distribution of finished products to end customers. And it explains of how companies across different industrial sectors reduce their carbon emissions. 2.0 Suppliers: Collaborate for Carbon
can meaningfully comprehend the world. The media use sign systems through newspapers, magazines, television,internet, and the radio etc. The conceptual map of meaning and language are the basis of representation. The conceptual map of meaning, are concepts organised, arranged and classified into complex relations to one another. The conceptual map of meaning although allows you to distinguish your own individual interpretation of the world, at the same time as holding similar views to that of other
brief outline of a coastline’s length would be looking at maps of various scales. The result of this would be smaller scale maps resulting in shorter coastline lengths and larger scale maps, longer coastline lengths. This is called the coastline paradox: a term founded by English mathematician Lewis Fry Richardson and means that the larger the scale of map used, the longer the measured coastline length is. This is because the greater a map is enlarged, the finer the details captured of a place’s border
The Hereford World Map is the world’s oldest surviving map of the world; it was made in 1300, during the beginning of the Renaissance in Europe. There was a wider range of influences on mapping during the later medieval period. With an increase in exploration, Europe began to evolve into an international continent; widespread travel can be seen by the influences of the Islamic world on architecture. While map making in China had flourished in the 11th C, mapping was beginning to evolve in Europe
and available information about the time period. It may also reflect not only the author’s interest in each phase of history, but the assumed interest of the reader. The book contains mostly text, but also quite a few photographs, maps, and statistical charts. The maps are not detailed, only giving a general sense of the area, but the statistical tables are fairly detailed. Overall, though, the photographs are the most helpful device in illustrating and giving additional depth to the text. Section
goal that Jefferson set for the expedition. Lewis and Clark recorded a wealth of scientific knowledge as they noted significant geographic features, made detailed route maps, and recorded their observations of longitude and latitude. Lewis performed most the astronomical duties and Clark charted the course and drafted expedition maps. Jefferson was especially concerned that Lewis and Clark establish good connections with the Indians and carry out linguistic and ethnological studies. Consequently, they
floor. The new theory is called plate tectonics. Soon after the Atlantic Ocean had been mapped, about three hundred years ago, it was noticed that the opposite coasts had similar shapes, but it was not until the middle of the 19th century that accurate maps were published demonstrating that the two coasts could be fitted together quite closely. Some geologists then suggested that the fit of the coasts was not an accident--that the continents were once joined and had subsequently drifted apart. None of
The U.S. had rarely collected a census and there were no reliable maps (Boba, 2001). The first spectral analysis of crime in the United States was done in the 1920’s and 1930’s by sociologists in Chicago (Boba, 2001). A majority of the crime mapping research and practice was done in Europe and the United States by studying
need to accurately enter coordinates in a GIS, the first step is to uniquely define all coordinates on Earth. This means you need a reference frame for your latitude and longitude coordinates. Because the Earth is curved and in GIS we deal with flat map projections we need to accommodate both the curved and flat views of the world. Surveyors have accurately defined locations on Earth. We begin modelling the Earth with an ellipsoid. To be clear, this is different than a geoid which is a measure of mean
A supply chain is a network of business bodies where it engages from manufacturing products and services to the delivering of products and services to the final consumer for instance the process of designing new products or services, obtaining raw materials, converting the raw materials into semi-finished or finished goods, and delivering the final product or service to the end user is known as supply chain. e-business is growing rapidly and this growth is causing major challenges to supply chain
discuss these three ideas, and perhaps draw a conclusion at the end on which I feel to be the most valid. The first solution to this question, as I said earlier, is the idea that destiny makes character. As destiny supposedly in the Greek mindset maps out all events before they occur, we can today assume with this logic that perhaps the components that "built" Oedipus' character were caused by fate. We know today that character is determined by biological factors and experience. These biological
states that the city of Jerusalem should be in the center of all maps created. This eliminated the need for any latitude or longitude. Before hand, there had been more than six hundred maps created, not one having this holy city as the center. There was nothing new about putting "the most sacred place at the center" says Boorstin. The Hindus placed Mount Meru, a mythological 70,000 foot high mountain at the center of their map. In the Muslim faith, the Ka'bah in Mecca was the highest point
science of map making and can date back to clay tablets in 2300 B.C. The word cartography is derived from the Greek words “chartes”, meaning sheet of papyrus, and “graphy”, meaning writing. This phrase was composed in the 19th century although the Portuguese scholar Manuel Francisco de Barros e Sousa was in need of a new word that would describe maps, and in-turn, created cartography. By the end of the 19th century the meaning of cartography had changed to the word for map drawing. Dot maps of constellations
Internet-based map services including MapQuest and MapBlast as well as other digital maps. Before analyzing the effects that technology has on mapmaking, it is important to understand some of the history of maps. Hundreds of years ago, maps were drawn by hand and much of the work had to be done manually. In ancient Greece , philosophers came up with the idea of “geography” and that was where the foundations of maps were created. Information about geography is very crucial in designing a map and at
Peter Carey’s The Fat Man in History Entrapment and Isolation are common attributes of characters throughout several of the stories in The Fat Man in History. This comes across in many forms, both physical and mental. In most of the stories both entrapment and isolation often the result of the interaction of both. Stories which this theme is apparent are Crabs, Windmill in the West, and A Report on the Shadow Industry. In all of these stories characters are both entrapped and isolated by their
