Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores a novel concept: adding semistructured objects and their interconnectedness to traditional hypertext, through which human and computerized processing can harmoniously coexist. The author posits these semistructured objects, customizable folders, and semiautonomous agents provide significant benefits, notably in summarizing the connections between related data and streamlining the process of searching through it with rules-based automation. Ultimately, the book argues that this unique approach allows users to strike a balance between utilizing formal structures for automated processing when appropriate while maintaining the flexibility and naturalness of informal representation for human comprehension. This balance is advantageous in a wide range of real-world applications, owing to the fact that many situations involving computers often require a nuanced understanding of the task domain that is best achieved through the combination of human and computerized strengths. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Hardback. Condition: New. An important new resource for managers in marketing, finance, acquisitions analysis, and strategic planning, this book explores a question central to the financial health of every company: Is there a rate of corporate growth that is both desirable and sustainable? As the authors point out, excessive growth in sales can be as destructive to the survival of a firm as no growth. Here they present analytical models and tools that enable corporate planners to evaluate their own growth needs, target realistic expectations, and assess the collateral risks of growing either too fast or too slow.Focusing throughout on the concept of managed growth, the authors begin with a theoretical micro/macroeconomic analysis and proceed to a practical, applied presentation of growth theory in management decision making. They present models useful for both short- and long-term management, all of them illustrated with concrete data taken from corporate annual reports and SEC 10K reports. By employing these models, planners will be able to accurately forecast optimal and feasible growth rates, evaluate the impact of price fluctuations on the sustainable growth rate, isolate the effects of productivity trends, plan working capital requirements, determine the most favorable capital structure of the firm, and measure the impact of potential mergers or takeovers on sustainable growth. Each of the models can easily be programmed for computer usage. The authors also pay considerable attention to remedial actions that can be taken when the actual growth rate either exceeds or falls short of the sustainable growth rate, making this an especially practical tool for anyone charged with financial, sales, and strategic planning responsibilities.…
