Why Firefighting Is Never Enough: Preserving High-Quality Product Development
In this paper, we add to insights already developed in single-project models about insufficient resource allocation and the " firefighting " and last-minute rework that often result by asking why dysfunctional resource allocation persists from project to project. We draw on data collected from a field site concerned about its new product development process and its quality of output to construc...
متن کاملConvergent evolution of twintron-like configurations: One is never enough.
Introns inserted within introns are commonly referred to as twintrons, however the original definition for twintron implied that splicing of the external member of the twintron could only proceed upon splicing of the internal member. This review examines the various types of twintron-like arrangements that have been reported and assigns them to either nested or twintron categories that are subd...

متن کاملFail-safe transcription termination: Because one is never enough.
Termination of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription is a fundamental step of gene expression that involves the release of the nascent transcript and dissociation of RNAPII from the DNA template. As transcription termination is intimately linked to RNA 3' end processing, termination pathways have a key decisive influence on the fate of the transcribed RNA. Quite remarkably, when reaching the...
متن کاملRank Order Entropy: Why One Metric Is Not Enough
The use of Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship models to address problems in drug discovery has a mixed history, generally resulting from the misapplication of QSAR models that were either poorly constructed or used outside of their domains of applicability. This situation has motivated the development of a variety of model performance metrics (r(2), PRESS r(2), F-tests, etc.) designed...
