Abstract

The practice of business is changing. More and more companies are amassing larger and larger amounts of data, and storing them in bigger and bigger data bases. Consequently, successful applications of data-driven decision making are plentiful and increasing on a daily basis. This book will motivate the need for data and data-driven solutions, using real data from real business scenarios. It will allow managers to better interact with personnel specializing in analytics by exposing managers and decision makers to the key ideas and concepts of data-driven decision making.   Business Analytics for Managers conveys ideas and concepts from both statistics and data mining with the goal of extracting knowledge from real business data and actionable insight for managers. Throughout, emphasis placed on conveying data-driven thinking.  While the ideas discussed in this book can be implemented using many different software solutions from many different vendors, it also provides a quick-start to one of the most powerful software solutions available.   The main goals of this book are as follows: ·         To excite managers and decision makers about the potential that resides in data and the value that data analytics can add to business processes. ·         To provide managers with a basic understanding of the main concepts of data analytics and a common language to convey data-driven decision problems so they can better communicate with personnel specializing in data mining or statistics.

Abstract

This book was written for those who need to know how to collect, analyze and present data. It is meant to be a first course for practitioners, a book for private study or brush-up on statistics, and supplementary reading for general statistics classes. The book is untraditional, both with respect to the choice of topics and the presentation. The topics were determined by what is most useful for practical statistical work: even experienced statisticians will find new topics or new approaches to traditional topics. The presentation is as non-mathematical as possible. Mathematical formulae are presented only if they are necessary for calculations and/or add to readers' understanding. A sample survey is developed as a realistic example throughout the book, and many further examples are presented, which also use data spreadsheets from a supplementary website.

Abstract

Si fa sempre un po' fatica - ovvio - a pensare che il mito (nella fattispecie quello di Cassandra) racconti fatti realmente accaduti. Infatti non sono realmente accaduti. Ma è difficile che il mito racconti fatti totalmente impossibili. Nessuno sa perché, ma il mito verte sempre intorno ad accadimenti che un giorno magari si riveleranno un po' veri. Non del tutto veri: solo un po'. Ma veri. E' così del resto anche per molte verità scientifiche, presagite nel passato, e verificate in seguito usando la fisica e le altre scienze che, sviluppate, sono poi state capaci di affrontarle. Ma esiste allora una matematica del destino, qualcosa come il principio di minima azione di Hamilton, che date le condizioni iniziali di un mondo macroscopico determina in maniera univoca lo stato futuro del mondo stesso? Per quanto increduli, la risposta deve essere: sì. Nello scrivere questo libro, l'Autore si è sforzato di spiegare anche le parti più complicate con un linguaggio comprensibile a tutti.

Abstract

This handbook covers DEA topics that are extensively used and solidly based. The purpose of the handbook is to (1) describe and elucidate the state of the field and (2), where appropriate, extend the frontier of DEA research. It defines the state-of-the-art of DEA methodology and its uses. This handbook is intended to represent a milestone in the progression of DEA. Written by experts, who are generally major contributors to the topics to be covered, it includes a comprehensive review and discussion of basic DEA models, which, in the present issue extensions to the basic DEA methods, and a collection of DEA applications in the areas of banking, engineering, health care, and services. The handbook's chapters are organized into two categories: (i) basic DEA models, concepts, and their extensions, and (ii) DEA applications. First edition contributors have returned to update their work. The second edition includes updated versions of selected first edition chapters. New chapters have been added on:  ·         Different approaches with no need for a priori choices of weights (called multipliers) that reflect meaningful trade-offs. ·         Construction of static and dynamic DEA technologies. ·         Slacks-based model and its extensions ·         DEA models for DMUs that have internal structures network DEA that can be used for measuring supply chain operations. ·         Selection of DEA applications in the service sector with a focus on building a conceptual framework, research design and interpreting results.
