In this project-thesis, we study the material overconsumption from Shur-Lok International, a subsidiary company from the PCC group. We use the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve and Control) project management technique combined to the 7 basic quality tools for processes improvement in order to conduct our approach. Quickly, the company’s poor data quality prevents us from going further. As a result, we decide to take a step back from the original project in order to improve the data quality.
Thus, we represent the company’s processes using flowcharts in order to identify the steps at which the data quality is corrupted. Afterwards, we use the FMEA (Failure Mode Effects Analysis) technique to get a priority list from the failure mode’s risk priority number. 
Once the failure modes with a risk priority number above the acceptable threshold are identified, we define guidelines to prevent the failure modes to occur. The guidelines are built in association with the manufacturing workforce in order to come up with practical solutions. We had the opportunity to implement some of these guidelines and, as planned, they appear to improve the company’s data quality concerning the material overconsumption.
Afterwards, we explain how the material overconsumption study should be resumed once the company will obtain reliable data. Finally, we present our beliefs regarding the impact of the data quality improvement on the analysis and we explain why it is important for the company to carry on these improvements and the study of material overconsumption.

This unique guide to interactive system design reflects the experience and vision of Jef Raskin, the creator of the Apple Macintosh. Other books may show how to use today's widgets and interface ideas effectively. Raskin, however, demonstrates that many current interface paradigms are dead ends, and that to make computers significantly easier to use requires new approaches. He explains how to effect desperately needed changes, offering a wealth of innovative and specific interface ideas for software designers, developers, and product managers.

Even if the terms “forensic sciences” and “legal medicine” seem to be synonymous, they could be defined as two sides of the same coin. It has been demonstrated that they are different components of the application of medical knowledge upon the legal system. Legal medicine has greater relevance to civil and tort law, impacting upon patient care, whereas forensic medicine relates to criminal law and damage to (or by) patients. This Special Issue, entitled “Forensic Science and Legal Medicine: A Multidisciplinary Puzzle!”, collected accurate and up-to-date scientific information on all aspects of this theme, publishing original investigations, case series and case reports, and reviews in all forensic and medico-legal branches.

In this landmark work of economic sociology, Lucien Karpik introduces the theory and practical tools needed to analyze markets for singularities. Singularities are goods and services that cannot be studied by standard methods because they are multidimensional, incommensurable, and of uncertain quality. Examples include movies, novels, music, artwork, fine wine, lawyers, and doctors. Valuing the Unique provides a theoretical framework to explain this important class of products and markets that for so long have eluded neoclassical economics. With this innovative theory--called the economics of singularities--Karpik shows that, because of the uncertainty and the highly subjective valuation of singularities, these markets are necessarily equipped with what he calls "judgment devices"--such as labels, brands, guides, critics, and rankings--which provide consumers with the credible knowledge needed to make reasonable choices. He explains why these markets are characterized by the primacy of competition by qualities over competition by prices, and he identifies the conditions under which singularities are constructed or are in danger of losing their uniqueness. After demonstrating how combinations of the numerous and multiform judgment devices can be used to identify different market models, Karpik applies his analytical tools to the functioning of a large number of actual markets, including fine wines, movies, luxury goods, pop music, and legal services.
