Local Commitment to JOBS
… of the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills (JOBS) program. It contends that such a commitment is a necessary pre-condition for JOBS to ever be successful. It then examines the level of commitment these actors have to JOBS in Roanoke, Virginia in order to explore the process by which local …

Creating Good Jobs in Automotive Manufacturing
… A stable workforce results in repeatability of jobs, which in turn leads to higher quality vehicles and decreased down-time on the assembly line. It also results in lower turnover costs and allows management to focus on performance improvement instead of putting out fires that arise throughout …

Application Choices to Gender-typed Jobs
… criteria for putting themselves forward to seek jobs. Using a survey vignette study, I find that women and men differ in their application decisions. Women aren't avoiding male-typed jobs, but men are avoiding female-typed jobs. In terms of anticipated discrimination, while there is no gender …

Remaking jobs and organisations : a Schatzkian practice perspective
… conceptualisations of organisations, change, jobs, workers and knowing in ways that challenge prevailing managerialist theorisations of the same. In particular, this thesis draws on Schatzkian notions of practice and social site (Schatzki, 2002, 2005, 2006), where workers and organisations are …

Minorities, gender, managerial jobs, and income, 1960-1990
… being the movement of women into managerial jobs. A clear pattern also emerged indicating that the higher the average representation of a minority group in managerial jobs, the greater the gap between women and men. The income of all persons with income, however, did not exhibit such a clear …

Correlation Between Student Success and On-Campus Jobs
… study examined the level of degree on-campus jobs at Eastern Kentucky University assist with the overall student success rate regarding retention, grade point average and degrees awarded to ensure state and other funding sources are maximized. Specifically, this study focuses on major student …

Employment and training programs : from CETA to JOBS.
… Opportunity and Basic Skills Training Program (JOBS), and a case study of the Central Texas Council of Governments/Central Texas Private Industry Council Employment and Training Division are presented. By tracking 934 participants who participated in employment and training programs, it was …

Tasks, Skills, and Jobs in the Green Economy
… demand for new and emerging skills, tasks, and jobs. A challenge, however, is that there are no existing definitions of what constitutes green jobs and skills, and thus, no clear consensus on the training workers will need for these jobs. This dissertation employs a data-driven approach using …

Scheduling Imprecise Hard Real-Time Jobs With Cumulative Error
… problem of scheduling imprecise hard real-time jobs with cumulative error. A class of heuristic algorithms is proposed to schedule jobs such that the cumulated error of the results produced by each job will not exceed the maximum threshold. The proposed algorithms are evaluated using different …

Scheduling hard real-time jobs that allow imprecise results
… discusses the problem of scheduling periodic jobs to meet deadlines on systems that support imprecise computations. In our workload models, each real-time task is logically decomposed into two parts: a mandatory part and an optional part. The mandatory part must be completed in order for the …

Dynamic processor allocation for adaptively parallel work-stealing jobs
TCP's burstiness is usually regarded as harmful, or at best, inconvenient. Instead, this thesis suggests a new perspective and examines whether TCP's burstiness is useful for certain applications. It claims that burstiness can be harnessed to insulate traffic from packet reordering caused by route …

Hybrid flow shop scheduling with prescription constraints on jobs
… particularly prescription constraints on the jobs. This thesis restates the practical problem as a scheduling problem by doing hypotheses and restrictions. Then, it designs a mathematical model based on time-indexed variables. This model has been implemented in an IP solver to solve real based …

Capturing utility judgments across jobs: toward understanding and generalization
… generalize utility information from a sample of jobs to the population of interest. Analyses comparing validity-based and utility-based clustering schemes explored the degree of convergence between the two approaches to classifying jobs. These analyses indicated that there was some overlap, with …
