Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a popular and easy tool for visualizing production processes in enterprise. It allows one to eliminate or reduce waste, i.e., activities that do not create added value the customer. The versatility of this it be used industry. There are theoretical, methodological, practical aspects encountered by practitioners developing specific manufacturing industry, but they f...

Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a tool used in lean operations. Existing cases show how it has been used to launch a Lean organization or trigger large improvements, but there is little information on its use in merging the work streams of two discrete companies. This paper will discuss this approach.

A technique is described that uses goals to assess the agility of software development teams and shows how it can be used with some examples. The agile assessment can be used to make investment decisions and process alterations. Value stream mapping is seen as an important technique in analysing processes.

In this study, 115 samples taken from the stream sediments were analyzed for concentrations of As, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, W, Zn, Au, Ba, Fe, Mn, Sr, Ti, U, V and Zr. In order to outline mineralization-derived stream sediments, various mapping techniques including fuzzy factor score, geochemical halos and fractal model were used. Based on these models, concentrations of Co, Cr, Ni, Zn, Ba, Fe, Mn, ...

Linear stability analysis of the three dimensional plane wake flow is performed using a mapped finite di?erence scheme in a domain which is doubly infinite in the cross–stream direction of wake flow. The physical domain in cross–stream direction is mapped to the computational domain using a cotangent mapping of the form y = ?cot(??). The Squire transformation [2], proposed by Squire, is also us...
