"This book is about gaining a competitive edge in the Integrated circuit IC marketplace. It suggests that there is an unrecognized value hidden in the safety margins of descriptive views in any piece of intellectual property (IP). This hidden value is normally left on the table. However, it can be used by the aggressive design engineer (or manager) to surpass the competition in the marketplace. This text reveals how the typical design house can enhance performance, reduce power, and improve the density of standard-cell logic. It will show how to add value to the generic, foundry-provided standard-cell library that most companies use without modification. Lastly, it identifies the low-risk opportunities aggressive designers and managers can employ to improve margin from overdesigned standard cells. "-- Provided by publisher

La question de la mesure et de l'amélioration de la productivité des services est récurrente dans les débats politiques, comme dans les travaux académiques, depuis plusieurs décennies. Le concept de productivité, qui a été élaboré initialement pour des économies industrielles et agricoles, pose peu de difficultés, lorsqu'on a affaire à des produits standardisés. L'avènement de l'économie des services a contribué à remettre en cause, sinon la pertinence de ce concept, du moins sa définition et ses méthodes de mesure. Cet ouvrage dresse un bilan de la question de la productivité dans les services à la fois sur le plan théorique, méthodologique et opérationnel. Il rend compte tout d'abord des définitions de la productivité et de ses principales méthodes de mesure. Il fournit également un bilan des débats conceptuels et méthodologiques récents et des controverses suscités par cette notion. Dans une perspective plus opérationnelle et stratégique, il est également consacré à l'identification et à l'analyse des principaux leviers de l'amélioration de la productivité, et, plus généralement, aux stratégies concrètes mises en œuvre à cette fin dans les entreprises et les organisations.

All kinds of processes - those that make things or deliver services or operate companies - can be made more productive, and society's continued well-being requires it. This book is for all those with a stake in improving how companies run. It introduces the concept of 'swift, even flow' and explains how that concept stands behind popular business tools such as 'lean' principles and Six Sigma. More than that, it shows how swift, even flow can lead to deep, strategic insights and fresh ideas. The book uses many examples, both contemporary and historic, and 16 case studies from all sorts of business situations to demonstrate how swift, even flow can be applied. Services and manufacturing, supply chains and individual operations, product development and outsourcing, strategy and tactics, hourly workers and top level executives - all benefit from this fundamental re-thinking of what it takes to become productive.
