The Effects of Technology on the Labour Force of Dofasco Inc.Kawalec, Christopher J. 04 1900 (has links)
<p> The purpose of this research is to determine how the changing levels of technology at Dofasco Inc. have affected its labour force. This will be approached from the perspective of a production function. An overview of Dofasco's history quickly reveals that the level of technology in its factory is definitely growing. This fact is reflected in the large quantities of new equipment purchased in the company's past.</p> <p> The production function is utilized through a graphical interpretation of four ratios: the sales/labour; sales/output; output/labour; and capital/labour. These ratios provide an explanation of when, why, and how the technology level at Dofasco changes and the affect these will have on labour.</p> <p> The company successfully raises the value and quality of its output through value adding processing of the raw steel. This is attained by large capital expenditures on new equipment. The new equipment also has the effect of increasing labour productivity. Translating into a declining need for labour inputs. The exacting specifications needed in steel making are now satisfied through the use of computers and not through an experienced workers judgement.</p> / Thesis / Candidate in Philosophy

Implementation of Application Layer Protocol for an Active RFID SystemAgrawal, Ambuj 30 September 2011 (has links)
The emerging technology of active RFID tags has strong potential in the areas of real time health monitoring, sorting of cargo, and large scale inventory management because of their longer communication range and larger data storage capacity. The market of active RFID is growing very rapidly and therefore there has been an increase in the number of companies engaging in this field. But very often it is found that the products available in the market are not always suited to the application at hand. To overcome this problem, off the shelf active RFID products which were reconfigurable and followed a standard PHY and MAC layer protocol were used for this work. By reprogramming the application layer protocol of the RFID hardware, these devices were made suitable for the desired application. This also allowed the RFID tags to extend their functionality by interfacing extra modules with themselves. The work presented in this thesis describes the way in which the microcontroller on board the active RFID tags and readers can be programmed so that the functionality of the RFID hardware can be changed as per requirements. It also shows that extra modules can be added to the tag by successfully interfacing an accelerometer module with the tag. / Master of Science

Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo entender as diferentes dinâmicas estabelecidas entre contracultura, economia e ciência a partir da noção de matriz de entrelaçamento. A empresa Google Inc e o objeto que melhor permite analisar as zonas fronteiriças que entrelaçam esses três elementos, preservando seus referentes e suas fronteiras.Assim este e um trabalho que tenta explorar por meio de quais processos as praticas e valores da contracultura e da produção de conhecimento científico que, ao mesmo tempo em que não eram frontalmente anti-mercado, mas que inicialmente não estavam subordinadas à produção capitalista, acabam muitas vezes se impondo aos objetivos de mercado, à forma de produção de conhecimento do capitalismo flexível, por provarem sua eficiência tecnica e sucesso comercial. Irei me referir a esses três elementos dentro de uma perspectiva dos regimes, que estabelece que cada regime tem sua base histórica, possui sua própria divisão de trabalho, seus próprios modos de produção cognitiva e de artefatos e tem audiências específicas. / This research aims to understand the different dynamics between established counterculture, economics and science from the notion of entanglement matrix. The company Google Inc. is therefore the best subject for an analysis of edge cases that intertwine these three elements, preserving their referents and their boundaries. In this manner, this research attempts to explore which processes the practices and values of counterculture and the production of scientific knowledge that, while they were not outright anti-market, but initially were not subordinated to capitalist production, often end up imposing marketing objectives, influencing the production of knowledge in a flexible capitalism for proving its technical efficiency and \"commercial\" success. I will refer to these three elements within a perspective of the regimes, which states that each regime has its historical basis, has its own division of labor, their own modes of cognitive production and has specific audiences.

Previous issue date: 2010 / Essa dissertação buscou compreender o recente fenômeno corporativo de fusões e
aquisições entre as Instituições de Ensino Superior Privado no Brasil. Foram
analisados dois casos em particular: a compra da Universidade Anhembi Morumbi,
sediada em São Paulo, pelo grupo americano Laureate Inc. e a aquisição do Grupo
Fanor, com Instituições nos estados da Bahia e Ceará, por outro grupo americano, a
Devry Inc. A pesquisa desenvolvida apresenta os tipos, as motivações, as etapas e
os fatores de sucesso desses processos. Como resultado da pesquisa, verificou-se
que entre os anos de 2005 e o primeiro trimestre de 2009, ocorreram 78 destes
processos, envolvendo cerca de 2 bilhões de reais. A compra do controle acionário
da Universidade Anhembi Morumbi pelo grupo americano Laureate Inc. em 2005 é
considerado o marco inicial no país para o processo de fusões e aquisições entre
Instituições de Ensino Superior Privadas. Verificou-se que as Fusões e Aquisições
no setor de Ensino Superior Privado no Brasil são eminentemente do tipo horizontal,
e fatores como excesso de oferta (número de vagas), demanda reduzida (novos
alunos), crescimento e diversificação, sinergia, e o aumento da capacidade de
investimento, são as principais motivações encontradas durante a pesquisa, para a
formação de grupos consolidadores. Nos dois casos estudados, os processos de
Fusão e Aquisição da Universidade Anhembi Morumbi pela Laureate Inc. e da Fanor
pela Devry Inc. passaram pelas três etapas básicas: due diligence, negociação e a
integração. O aumento da capacidade de investimento que o novo sócio trás, com
investimentos em infraestrutura e a capacitação do docente, a troca de
conhecimento e experiência entre as universidades da rede, e o auxílio de
consultores educacionais disponibilizados pelos grupos controladores são os
principais fatores de sucesso dos processos de Fusões e Aquisições analisados. / Salvador

Corporate Propaganda Analysis: a Case Study of Nike, Inc.Anderson, Christian S. (Christian Spencer) 12 1900 (has links)
This study seeks to show how Nike, Inc. has effectively followed a strategy to increase the sale of its products that can be characterized as propaganda. Regarding method, this is a qualitative study which applied the propaganda analysis plan developed by Jowett & O'Donnell (1992) to examine and describe (1) Nike's ideology, (2) corporate structure and culture, (3) purpose, (4) targeted audiences, (5) the dissemination of the propaganda, (6) techniques for increasing its effectiveness, (7) existing counterpropaganda and contradictions, and (8) the effectiveness of the campaign. The study provides evidence that Nike engages in propaganda through an organized, systematic, and deliberate attempt to influence the beliefs, attitudes, perceptions, and actions of specific audiences for the purpose of accomplishing fixed objectives.

A cross-cultural test of Implicit Leadership TheoryMcKie, David S. January 2003 (has links)
This research builds on Implicit Leadership Theory, which suggests that a leader's performance is likely to be higher when there is congruence between a follower's prototype of what a leader should be and his or her perception of the leader's behaviour. The essence of effective leadership, according to this theory, is being seen as a leader by others. Data were collected from 196 leaders and 1,738 followers from 23 countries within Cargill Incorporated, a US food and agricultural multinational. The research was conducted in two phases. During the first phase data were collected on followers' desired leadership values and their perception of their leader's behaviour on the same dimensions. These data were used to compute a congruence score based on a weighted sum of absolute differences. The congruence score data formed the heart of an individualised Leadership Fit Report written for each leader in the study showing the extent of congruence across 21 leadership characteristics (see Appendix A). The second phase of the study focused on a subset of 933 followers from five countries testing the two hypotheses. The two hypotheses in Phase Two were partially supported. The first was that congruence between desired leadership values and perceived behaviour leads to high performance of a leader and incongruence leads to lower performance. The second was that the relationship between congruence and leader performance varied by nationality. The cross-cultural test of Implicit Leadership Theory captured in Hypothesis 2 was particularly important to Cargill because it revealed unique and important differences between the five countries included in the second data set. This study found that the nature of the relationship between congruence and leader performance varies significantly between all five countries. More specifically the data suggests that congruence does not always lead to high performance. This study, albeit exploratory, makes theoretical, methodological and practical contributions in the following ways. i. A cross cultural test of Implicit Leadership Theory in a multinational organisation with a significant sample size. ii. An existing desired leadership values questionnaire was used and developed further to measure leadership values and leader perception. iii. All 196 leaders received a personalised feedback report showing the level of congruence (or degree of fit) for 21 leadership characteristics. iv. A methodological contribution was made by using Polynomial Regression Equations and Response Surface Methodology to measure the nature of the relationship between desired leadership values, perceived behaviour and leaders' performance. Implicit Leadership Theory was shown to be complex yet very relevant to management practice. The research undertaken was exploratory yet it has created the basis for on going discussion.
