A watermelon seems green on the outside but it is red on the inside. As well as in reports, there are some indicators that are presented as if they were green due to flaws made in metrics calculation or wrong calculation function. As a result, Project Monitoring is damaged and Control is not activated to solve a problem, but, way more than a problem, a red light means a cry for help, it means a monitoring alert sent so a control action can be taken. Such a logic sequence in first of all monitoring and controlling items is not always followed and among other issues, traffic light indicators are commonly applied without the need of a precision measure. These are the atomic watermelons in projects and this book is an invitation for us to think about the way the current processing structuring organization is made in the PMBOK® Guide. We propose changes in it. You will learn about metrics and its meanings through a mix of equations and practical examples that may assist in enabling a reliable monitoring system besides a free projects´ control when atomic watermelons come up.
The Encyclopedia of Nineteenth-Century Photography is the first comprehensive encyclopedia of world photography up to the beginning of the twentieth century. It sets out to be the standard, definitive reference work on the subject for years to come. Its coverage is global – an important ‘first’ in that authorities from all over the world have contributed their expertise and scholarship towards making this a truly comprehensive publication. The Encyclopedia presents new and ground-breaking research alongside accounts of the major established figures in the nineteenth century arena. Coverage includes all the key people, processes, equipment, movements, styles, debates and groupings which helped photography develop from being ‘a solution in search of a problem’ when first invented, to the essential communication tool, creative medium, and recorder of everyday life which it had become by the dawn of the twentieth century. The sheer breadth of coverage in the 1200 essays makes the Encyclopedia of Nineteenth-Century Photography an essential reference source for academics, students, researchers and libraries worldwide.

Uma melancia se parece verde por fora, mas é vermelha por dentro. Assim como nos relatórios, alguns indicadores são apresentados em verde, mas deveriam estar vermelhos. Essa confusão de sinais acontece normalmente por falhas nos cálculos das métricas ou por métricas com equações mal elaboradas. Como consequência, o Monitoramento dos projetos fica prejudicado e o Controle não é acionado para resolver o problema. Acender luz verde ou vermelha no relatório pode fazer a diferença no sucesso do projeto – luz vermelha poderia ser descrita como um problema, mas, muito mais do que um problema, a luz vermelha é um pedido de ajuda, um sinal que o monitoramento envia para que seja toma...

Brazilian Railway Culture examines the cultural relationship Brazil has had with its railways since tracks were first laid by British, American and French engineers in the nineteenth century. ‘Railway’ and ‘Brazil’ are words not often found in the same sentence. Yet each year over seven hundred million passengers are carried by train in the major urban centres, and tens of thousands of visitors enjoy heritage steam rides at over a dozen restored lines and museums.

The book takes a journey through Brazilian cultural output from 1865 to the present day, examining no...

Climate changes will affect food production in a number of ways. Crop yields, aquatic populations and forest productivity will decline, invasive insect and plant species will proliferate and desertification, soil salinization and water stress will increase. Each of these impacts will decrease food and nutrition security, primarily by reducing access to and availability of food, and also by increasing the risk of infectious disease. Although increased biofuel demand has the potential to increase incomes among producers, it can also negatively affect food and nutrition security. Land used for cultivating food crops may be diverted to biofuel production, creating food shortages and raising pric...
