The production of a process is expected to meet customer demands, specifications or engineering tolerances. The ability of a process to meet these expectations is expresed as a single number using a process capability index. When the quality of the products relates to more than one characteristic, multivariate process capability indices are applied. As it is known, in some circumstances we are ...

various indexes such as rvi, ndvi, savi and osavi have been proposed for vegetation detection using satellite images. these indexes have been obtained based on high reflectance of the vegetation in near infrared band and its high absorption in red band. basic defect of these indexes are using them in various regions without any changes in index structure. in other words, these indexes have not ...

Offering a PSS that is based on co-creating value with customer, starts with understanding customer needs. Customer understanding is realized through the process of managing customer knowledge across a PSS value network. In this respect, customer knowledge management (CKM) is seen as a core business capability. We extend the notion of CKM capability to a PSS value network, defining it as a valu...

Porous Silicon (PS) samples have been prepared by electrochemical anodization of p-type silicon wafer by varying HF concentrations in the electrolytic solution. The structural, surface morphological, optical and surface composition analysis of the prepared samples were done by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Photoluminescence (PL) and Fourier transform infr...

Process improvement is a challenging task for software engineering. As Kuvaja [7]. has stated it:” It is difficult to find a unique way to identify a common improvement path suitable to all kinds of organizations.” The BOOTSTRAP method gives an assessor tools to evaluate processes. As a method it evaluates processes with low capability and a high effect on an organization’s goals the most impor...

This thesis presents contributions within the field of process capability analysis. Process capability analysis deals with how to assess the capability of processes. Based on process capability analysis one can determine how the process performs relative to its product requirements or specifications. An important part within process capability analysis is the use of process capability indices. ...

Innovation capabilities are the key ingredient in enhancing the firms’ competitiveness and ensuring their survival. Obviously, there are quite different in innovation activities between mauufacturing firms and service firms. It is necessary to consider the distinctness between them in evaluating firms’ innovation capabilities. This paper proposes a model of innovation capabilities in manufactur...
