Product Description
Control of engineering documentation, sometimes called Configuration Management (CM) especially in the defense industries, remains critical to world-class manufacturing survival. The 3rd edition of this popular engineering documentation handbook improves upon one of the best blueprints for efficient EDC/CM ever published, and continues to provide a significant company strategy for managers, project leaders, chief engineers and others. It can be used in many industries to improve the control of engineering documentation.

Use the Engineering Documentation Control Handbook to get on track right away and make the release of new products and their documentation flow smoothly and easily. The book is packed with specific methods that can be applied quickly and accurately to almost any industry and any product to control documentation, request changes to the product, make those changes and develop bills of material. The result is a powerful communications bridge between engineering and "the rest of the world" that makes rapid changes in products and documentation possible. With the help of the simple techniques in the handbook, companies can gain and hold their competitive advantages in a world that demands flexibility and quick reflexes -- and has no sympathy for delays.

The new edition takes the improvements of the second to a whole new level, with more chapters and even more additions. As always, the thrust of the book retains a focus on basics, rules and reasons. The author emphasizes that EDC or CM must be recognized as a key business strategy, and the days of "throwing it over the wall" are gone forever.

New Scientist - April 18 2009 (Malestrom)



INTRODUCTION
AN ENCOUNTER with untreated schizophrenia
can be a deeply unsettling experience that
leaves no doubt about the debilitating nature
of the condition. Who hasn’t averted their
gaze from a person engaged in an agitated
conversation with someone who isn’t there?
Psychiatric medicine has lessened the
frequency of such encounters. Where people
with schizophrenia have access to medical
care, their hallucinations can now be well
controlled with antipsychotic drugs.
That’s progress, but it helps those afflicted
with the condition less than it may appear:
even after the voices in their heads are
silenced, their ability to function in society
remains blunted by cognitive deficits that
make it hard to process information, learn,
remember and plan. Too often, despair brought
on by a lifetime of struggle ends in suicide.
That’s why the latest, extremely promising
results from a “brain training” approach to
treating schizophrenia (see page 13) are so
welcome. If the computer-based tools can be
further refined, there is real hope of restoring
patients’ cognitive abilities to the healthy
range, and maybe even safeguarding them
against decline in the first place.
The key test will be whether the lab results
translate into significant improvements in
quality of life. Particularly important will be
a trial led by Bruce Wexler of Yale University,
who is testing whether such training improves
performance in the workplace. This will be
important in societies that marginalise those
who are unable to hold down a job, particularly
for people with genuine difficulties who are
wrongly labelled lazy or stupid.
Alongside further developments in
treatment, there needs to be a better public
understanding of the problems faced by
those with schizophrenia. Over the past
decade or so, psychiatrists who specialise in
the condition have come to realise that the
cognitive deficits are more debilitating than
the hallucinations.
Word of this revised understanding
has been slow to get out, however, in part
because the official criteria used to define
schizophrenia – laid down in a volume
published by the American Psychiatric
Association called the Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) –
do not include the cognitive symptoms .
That should change in the next edition of
the DSM , due in 2012, but efforts to inform the
public of the full nature of schizophrenia need
not wait until then. Schizophrenia has been
misunderstood and misrepresented perhaps
more than any other disease. Rather than
averting our eyes, we should do all we can
to offer a helping hand.

Electricity Information 2009 by Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (Corporate Author)



Electricity Information 2009 by Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (Corporate Author)

INTRODUCTION

IEA Electricity Information 2009 is the latest edition
of an annual publication intended to provide sound
market information on electricity and heat to policy
and market analysts, and those employed in all sectors
of the electricity industry.
This monitoring and reporting of historical trends and
current energy market situation provides a strong
foundation for policy and market analysis, to better
inform the policy decision process toward selecting
policy instruments that are best suited to meet domestic
and/or international objectives.
IEA Electricity Information 2009 brings together in
one volume the basic statistics compiled by the IEA
on electricity and heat production. It also includes
information on installed capacity, consumption, trade
and prices.
This introduction is followed by important information
that will assist the reader in correctly using the data in
this publication. In addition, calorific values used for
preparing national energy balances are presented.
This information is structured as follows:
1. Principles and definitions
- General notes
- Data sources
- Units and conversions
- Notes on energy sources and flows
- Price data
- Quarterly statistics
- Monthly electricity statistics
2. Geographical coverage
3. Country notes
4. Conversion factors
Part I of the publication provides a short overview of
world electricity developments in 2007, covering
world electricity and heat production, input fuel mix,
supply and consumption, and electricity imports and
exports. A greater focus, with preliminary 2008 data,
is given to OECD countries with more detailed information
covering production, installed capacity, input
energy mix to electricity and heat production, consumption,
electricity trades, input fuel prices and enduser
electricity prices.
This edition of Electricity Information will also acquaint
the reader with developments in electricity
transmission and distribution technology by reproducing
a section of the recent IEA publication “Energy
Technology Perspectives 2008”.
Part II of the publication provides a corresponding
statistical overview of developments in the world and
OECD electricity and heat markets. Included is a synthesis
of the 2008 monthly electricity statistics of
OECD countries from the Monthly Electricity Statistics
report.
Part III provides, in tabular form, a more detailed and
comprehensive picture of the power and heat industry
developments for the 30 OECD Member countries.
OECD data are taken from IEA/OECD databases of
Energy Statistics that are based on annual submissions
from OECD Member countries to the Secretariat. The
Energy Statistics Division of the IEA Secretariat
works closely with national administrations to secure
consistency in time series and with IEA product definitions
and reporting conventions. The finalized data
provide the basis for IEA/OECD Energy Balances of
OECD Countries and Energy Statistics of OECD
Countries.
Price data in Part II are derived from IEA/OECD
Energy Prices and Taxes. Readers should consult this
publication for detailed information on data coverage
and sources.
