Ya en época de los griegos varios siglos antes de Jesucristo se tiene datos de la existencia de una especialización del trabajo en los barcos y en las minas. Esto se puede interpretar como especialización de las operaciones. El análisis dirigido hacia las operaciones continuó durante muchos años, pero poco a poco se fue cambiando hacia el concepto de proceso, conjunto de partes constituido de operaciones. Hoy en día se habla de sistema Hombre-Máquina o sea, se requiere integrar los comportamientos y habilidades del hombre con los atributos de la máquina en "la mejor forma posible".
Cada empresa ha de hacer recuento de las herramientas de que dispone, entre las que se encuentran una serie de elementos de producción que, organizados convenientemente bajo algún criterio, tienen como resultado la consecución de sus objetivos. Entre dichos elementos se pueden destacar aspectos que van desde el ámbito del marketing y de las finanzas, esfuerzos en I+D, políticas de personal, hasta la forma en que haya decidido organizar su proceso productivo. Es en este último factor en el que nos centraremos en este libro y dentro de él, en lo relativo a la distribución en planta. La decisión de utilizar este herramienta por parte de la empresa le conferirá una ventaja táctica y estratégica importante respecto a sus competidores presentes en el mercado o al menos, una similar posición de salida.
This book is a compilation of some of the best papers presented at the 15th International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Industrial Management in 2021. The Conference was promoted by ADINGOR (Asociación para el Desarrollo de la Ingeniería de Organización), organized by the University of Burgos, and it took place online on July 8 and 9, 2021. The book highlights some of the latest research advances and cutting-edge analyses of real-world case studies on industrial engineering and industrial management from a wide range of international contexts. It also identifies business applications and the latest findings and innovations in operations management and decision sciences. Industry 4.0: The Power of Data will help academic researchers and practitioners in industrial engineering and industrial management to keep abreast of state-of-the-art developments in these subjects.
Both in opera studies and in most operatic works, the singing body is often taken for granted. In Postopera: Reinventing the Voice-Body, Jelena Novak reintroduces an awareness of the physicality of the singing body to opera studies. Arguing that the voice-body relationship itself is a producer of meaning, she furthermore posits this relationship as one of the major driving forces in recent opera. She takes as her focus six contemporary operas - La Belle et la Bête (Philip Glass), Writing to Vermeer (Louis Andriessen, Peter Greenaway), Three Tales (Steve Reich, Beryl Korot), One (Michel van der Aa), Homeland (Laurie Anderson), and La Commedia (Louis Andriessen, Hal Hartley) - which she terms 'postoperas'. These pieces are sites for creative exploration, where the boundaries of the opera world are stretched. Central to this is the impact of new media, a de-synchronization between image and sound, or a redefinition of body-voice-gender relationships. Novak dissects the singing body as a set of rules, protocols, effects, and strategies. That dissection shows how the singing body acts within the world of opera, what interventions it makes, and how it constitutes opera’s meanings.
This book highlights some of the latest research advances and cutting-edge analyses of real-world case studies on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management from diverse international contexts, while also identifying business applications for the latest findings and innovations in operations management and the decision sciences. It gathers a selection of the best papers presented at the XXII International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Industrial Management, which was promoted by ADINGOR (Asociación para el Desarrollo de la Ingeniería de Organización) and held at the Escola Politècnica Superior of the Universitat de Girona, Spain, on July 12th and 13th, 2018.

This book deals with research in open challenges in Management Engineering in the 21st century, as well as selected opportunities and solutions to remedy them. Management Engineering is an emerging field that extends the analytical methods used in traditional Industrial Engineering and Industrial Organization to address the economic, behavioral and social dimensions of companies and their environments. Management Engineering extends its domain beyond the firm and the market to encompass the modeling and policy design of physical landscapes populated by social agents. The developments of the 21st century have made it necessary to adopt an integrative and global view of the different methodologies and tools that facilitate managers’ decision-making processes, ranging from the strategic to the operational level. This book equips readers with precisely these urgently needed resources.
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. The modern city, the locus of contemporary popular cultural production, is also the site where marginal if not marginalised individuals and groups invariably coalesce and develop their distinctive practices, representations, and identities in the interstices of established culture. The chapters in this volume explore the urban pop cultural imagination in the modern metropolis in three sections. ‘Visible Cities,’ analyses those visual phenomena in the modern city that attest to the complicating presence of otherwise marginalised agents and spaces. ‘Recreations,’ considers those leisure-time practices that nonetheless...
