    The purpose of this research is to analyze the implementation of competitive strategy of PT Kosoema Nanda Putra in textile industry by analyzing the company internal and external factors. PT Kosoema Nanda Putra chosen as an sample because the company is able to maintain sustainability during this tight national textile competition. However in the middle of this dynamic change, the company has to be able to anticipate by analyzing the internal and external factors in order to formulate an adequate competitive strategy to conquer the competition. Analytical method employed in this research refer to external environmental analysis comprises of macro environmental analysis, five forces model porter, and key success factor analysis. Meanwhile internal analysis comprises of core competence and value chain analysis. The research result shows that the cost leadership strategy employed by PT. Kosoema Nanda Putra is appropriate to compete among other textile company because of the limitation of product differentiation in textile industry. Even though, the strategy employed is appropriate, author suggests the company should assign special division to handle information technology to adapt current condition of which is based on information technology. This can strengthen company competence to compete among competitors in this tight national textile competition

    Wyprawa alpinistów na Nanda Devi była pierwszą polską pomyślnie zakończoną wędrówką w Himalajach. Nanda Devi była bardzo trudnym wyzwaniem dla polskiej ekipy, ale po wielu niebezpiecznych sytuacjach w końcu osiągnęli szczyt. W kolejnym kroku alpiniści chcieli zdobyć szczyt Tirsuli. Niestety, dwóch ekspedytorów zostało zasypanych lawiną na zboczach lodowca. Janusz Klarner (członek ekipy polskich alpinistów) po kilku latach napisał książkę Nanda Devi, opartą na jego prywatnym dzienniku ekspedycyjnym. Główną tezą artykułu jest to, że dotarcie do Nanda Devi było możliwe dzięki odpowiedniej szybkości adaptacji. Himalaje były zupełnie nieznanym miejscem dla polskich alpinistów. Okoliczności wymagały adaptacji do nowych, wymagających warunków. W artykule autor analizuje te adaptacje. Niektóre z nich miały wymiar symboliczny, inne: kulturowy, techniczny oraz aksjologiczny. Korzystając z ustaleń Deleuze'a z Bergsonizmu, autor uznaje, że zdolność do odpowiednio dynamicznej adaptacji jest wynikiem odpowiedniego uporządkowania występującego w danym momencie. Podsumowując, autor rozważa różne powiązania wzorców kulturowych, przyczynowości osobistej i względów środowiskowychAlpinist expedition to the Nanda Devi was the first Polish successfully ended hiking in the Himalaya. Nanda Devi was a very tough challenge for Polish team but after many dangerous situations they finally reached the peak. As a next step alpinists wanted to reach Tirsuli peak. Unluckily, two of the expeditors were buried in an avalanche on the slopes of a glacier. Janusz Klarner (the member of the Polish alpinists team) after few years wrote a book Nanda Devi which is based on his private expedition journal. The main thesis of the article is that reaching Nanda Devi was possible by the accurate speed of adaptation. The Himalaya was a completely different and unknown place for Polish alpinists. Alpinists were forced to various adaptations in many different situations. In the article author analyses emerging changes and adaptations. Among them are symbolic, cultural, technical and axiological adaptations. Using Deleuze's findings from Bergsonizm, the author recognizes that the capacity for appropriately dynamic adaptation is the result of an appropriate arrangement occurring at a point in time. To sum up, an author considers various connections between cultural patterns, personal causality and environmental considerations

    Towards Agent-Based Models of Rumours in Organizations: A Social Practice Theory Approach

    No full text
    Rumour is a collective emergent phenomenon with a potential for provoking a crisis. Modelling approaches have been deployed since five decades ago; however, the focus was mostly on epidemic behaviour of the rumours which does not take into account the differences between agents. We use social practice theory to model agent decision-making in organizational rumourmongering. Such an approach provides us with an opportunity to model rumourmongering agents with a layer of cognitive realism and study the impacts of various intervention strategies for prevention and control of rumours in organizations.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Policy AnalysisInformation and Communication TechnologyInteractive Intelligenc

    The Royal pilgrimage of the Goddess Nanda

    No full text
    Once every twelve years, when it is thought that some calamity has taken place because of the curse of the goddess Nanda Devi, a four-horned ram is born in the fields of the former king of Garhwal, an erstwhile Central Himalayan kingdom in north India (see map of Garhwal). This four-horned ram leads a procession of priests and pilgrims on the most dangerous and spectacular pilgrimage in all of India: a three-week, barefoot journey of one-hundred and sixty-four miles, during some of the worst weather of the year, at the end of the rainy season. The procession reaches Rupkund, a small pond located at an altitude of more than 5,000 metres, which is surrounded by human­ skeletons, and from there it goes yet further, to Homkund, the ‘Lake of the Fire Sacrifice’. According to the faithful, the four-horned ram leaves the procession at that point and finds its way, unaided, to the summit of Mount Trishul. As its name suggests, the Royal Procession is closely associated with the ruler of this erstwhile Himalayan kingdom: he attends its inaugural rituals, the bones that litter the shores of Rupkund are believed to be those of one of his ancestors, and the chief sponsor of the event is a local ‘Prince’ who is thought to be descended from the first kings of Garhwal. This Prince traverses the domain of his ancestors and thereby lays claim to it in the name of the goddess Nanda, who is not only his lineage goddess but was also the royal goddess of the neighbouring kingdom of Kumaon, in pre-colonial times. Although the Royal Procession ideally fosters social integration, it was disrupted in 1987 by a quarrel between two factions of priests. The goddess’s itinerary, the culminating date of the pilgrimage, the type of sacrifice to be performed, the order of procession, the participation of previously excluded persons, and the competency of certain ritual specialists—all were subjects of heated dispute between the rival groups. What was the reason for this quarrel? The whole idea of the Progress was to create unity, yet in the event they were torn apart by an acrimonious dispute. So why were they quarrelling if it was ‘only’ a ritual, a matter of mere symbols? Although we often distinguish between the realms of ‘politics’ and ‘ritual’, and although many social scientists would balk at the idea that they are one and the same, in many cases – as the author argues in this article – they pervade each other: ritual is politics and politics is ritual

    PT PLN (Persero) mengalami peningkatan jumlah pelanggan rata-rata 8,4% per tahun. Pertambahan pelanggan dapat diindikasikan sebagai pertambahan beban. Agar pelanggan atau beban dapat terus mendapatkan suplai listrik, pertambahan beban ini juga harus diiringi dengan pertambahan sumber. Karena sumber tidak akan mampu mensuplai jika pertambahan beban terus menerus tanpa adanya pertambahan sumber yang lain. Permasalahannya adalah, jika semakin besar beban dan sumber yang ada, maka arus nominal dan arus gangguan juga akan semakin besar. sedangkan jika arus yang ada terlalu besar, dapat menyebabkan kerusakan pada peralatan yang lain. Sehingga dibutuhkan pengaman atau relai yang setting arusnya dapat berubah sesuai dengan sumber tegangan yang ada. Pada Tugas Akhir ini dapat mendeteksi berapa jumlah sumber yang mensuplai jaringan, dan selanjutnya disebut relai indikator. Selain dapat mendeteksi jumlah sumber, relai juga dapat berkomunikasi satu sama lain, sehingga memungkinkan pengiriman beberapa data antar relai. Ketika relai indikator mendeteksi jumlah sumber, data sumber akan dikirimkan ke relai utama. Relai utama ini bersifat adaptif, yaitu setting arusnya dapat berubah sesuai dengan jumlah sumber. Adaptif relai ini yang nantinya bertugas untuk koordinasi pengamanan jaringan. Pada monitoring adaptif relai dapat menunjukkan perubahan yang terjadi pada sumber, arus dan tegangan. Dan monitor ini memiliki delay pembacaan data data 2 detik. Dan koordinasi relai didapatkan nilai error waktu trip untuk sumber 1 adalah 0,022% pada relai 1 dan 0,048% pada relai 2. Dan ketika 2 sumber memiliki error waktu trip sebesar 0,038% pada relai 1 dan 0,063% pada relai 2. ========================================================================= PT PLN (Persero) has increased the number of customers an average of 8.4% for each year. Increased subscribers may be indicated as an increase in expenses. In order for customers or loads to continue to get electricity supply, this burden must also be accompanied by additional sources. Because the source will not be able to supply if the load increases continuously without any increase in other sources. The problem is, if the greater the load and the available source, the nominal current and the noise current will also be greater. Whereas if the current is too large, it can cause damage to other equipment. So it takes a safety or relays that the current setting can change according to the existing voltage source. In this Final Project can detect how many sources that supply network, and hereinafter referred as indicator relay. In addition to being able to detect the number of sources, relays can also communicate with each other, thus allowing the transmission of some data between relays. When the indicator relay detects the number of sources, the source data will be sent to the main relay. This main relay is adaptive, ie the current setting can change according to the number of sources. This adaptive relay which later served to coordinate network security. In adaptive monitoring the relays can show changes occurring at source, current and voltage. And this monitor has a data readout delay of 2 seconds. And the relay coordination of the trip error value for source 1 is 0.022% in relays 1 and 0.048% in relay 2. And when 2 sources have trip time error of 0.038% in relays 1 and 0.063% in relay 2

    Discrete Morse theory for Filtrations

    No full text
    The central result of this dissertation is an extension of discrete Morse theory to filtered cell complexes. Discrete Morse theory imposes a pairing on some cells of a complex X and uses that pairing to introduce a new complex M – called the Morse complex – consisting of the unpaired cells of X along with a boundary operator constructed from the incidence relations of the paired cells. It turns out that the homology groups of X and M are isomorphic. Now assume that the complex X admits a filtration by sub-complexes {X k}K 1 as follows X 1 ⊂ X 2 ⊂... ⊂ XK = X. Our theory constructs a pairing subordinate to this filtration, and hence produces a Morse complex M which is also filtered by subcomplexes {Mk}K 1 so that not only are each X k and Mk homologically isomorphic, but the map induced o
