Interview with Jim Butler
No full textAn interview of Oconee County resident Jim Butler conducted in September 2014. While he was born in 1943, his family has lived in the surrounding area since about 1812 and in Oconee County since 1875. He grew up in the county, moved away after college for about 25 years, and returned in 1989. He is a retired accountant, and currently a substitute teacher for the county. He notes how the county has changed since his childhood in terms of new shopping centers. He relates the story of a house that his family lived in that was previously a trading post in the 1700s and later was torn down in the 1990s.https://digitalcommons.northgeorgia.edu/ohs_hotl/1005/thumbnail.jp
Applying Atomicity and Model Decomposition to a Space Craft System in Event-B
No full textEvent-B is a formal method for modeling and verifying consistency of systems. In formal methods such as Event-B, refinement is the process of enriching or modifying an abstract model in a step-wise manner in order to manage the development of complex and large systems. To further alleviate the complexity of developing large systems, Event-B refinement can be augmented with two techniques, namely atomicity decomposition and model decomposition. Our main objective in this paper is to investigate and evaluate the application of these techniques when used in a refinement based development. These techniques have been applied to the formal development of a space craft system. The outcomes of this experimental work are presented as assessment results. The experience and assessment can form the basis for some guidelines in applying these techniques in future cases

Jim Benson, Founding Partner of Modus Institute and Author of Personal Kanban - You Can Have Too Many Manhattans!
No full textThis week\u27s Podcast features Jim Benson, founding partner of the Modus Institute. Jim discusses how he was introduced to the Deming Philosophy, how his team applies it to Knowledge Work (work that can\u27t be seen), and what he feels is the biggest fear in an organization.
Though he was initially introduced accidently on an airplane, Jim shared how he was actively looking for a set of guiding principles around what would create a human oriented, self-aware way of managing work. As he hopes everyone finds out, the four points of the System of Profound Knowledge do that in a very elegant, concise and friendly way.
At Modus Cooperendi, they apply the Deming Philosophy with three guiding principles: Respect for people, SOPK, and the One Point (summation of the 14 points). They take those principles and help companies build new Life Systems, so they can visualize their work for the first time leading to better communication, collaboration and transparency.
Listen as Jim tells us why they feel the unknown is the biggest fear in an organization. And how building trust within teams can remove one of the largest barriers to your company. Hear how some companies they\u27re working with are doing just that.https://digitalcommons.butler.edu/deming_podcast/1020/thumbnail.jp
