Assessing Innovation : Metrics, Rubrics, and Standards
We cannot manage and control what we cannot measure and assess.Poor assessment results have been cited as a primary reason for project failures, in terms of cost, schedule, and quality.This book introduces metrics, rubrics, and standards pertinent to assessing innovation. Assessing Innovation: Metrics, Rubrics, and Standards provides a new view for the embracing of innovation and establishing a quantitative basis for determining innovation levels.It bridges innovation with practice and presents a systems view as it incorporates the human element and discusses the different roles carried out.This book offers standards that will guide readers as they tackle sustaining innovation and leverages Badiru’s Umbrella Model in the process. The inclusion of methodologies suitable for determining where and when innovation is happening, and to what extent it is currently being carried out, make this a unique book, along with being the only book that addresses innovation metrics, rubrics, and standards in an integrated fashion.Seen as a way to help advance the diverse pursuit of innovation, this book is an ideal read for those in engineering, business, industry, academia, government, and the military.

Sustainability Standards and Global Governance : Experiences of Emerging Economies
This open access book focuses on the issue of sustainability standards from the perspective of both global governance frameworks and emerging economies.It stems from the recognition that the accelerated pace of economic globalization has generated production and consumption patterns that are generating sustainability concerns.Sustainability standards (and regulations) are increasingly being used in a bid to make global consumption and production more sustainable.Given the dense inter-connectedness of economic affairs globally, the use of sustainability standards has become a concern of global governance, who face the challenge of achieving a balance between the use of standards for genuine sustainability objectives, and not allowing them to turn into instruments of protectionism or coercion.The emerging economies, given their increasing engagement with the global economy, are most impacted by the use of sustainability standards.The emphasis of ‘emerging economies’ in thisbook is retained both by using case studies from these economies and by collating perceptions and assessments of those located in these economies.The case studies included span sectors such as palm oil, forestry, food quality, vehicular emissions and water standards, and address the problems unique to the emerging economies, including capacity building for compliance with standards, adapting international standards in domestic contexts and addressing the exclusion of small and medium enterprises etc. Complex interfaces and dynamics of a global nature are not limited to the thematic of this book but also extend to the process through which it was written.This book brings together insights from developed as well as emerging economies (Germany, India, Mexico, Brazil, Indonesia, Pakistan, Mexico and China).It also brings together scholars and practitioners to jointly ponder upon the conceptual aspects of the global frameworks for sustainability standards.This book is a very useful resource for researchers and practitioners alike, and provides valuable insights for policy makers as well.

What is meant by communication standards in the OSI model?
Communication standards in the OSI model refer to the set of rules and protocols that define how different devices communicate with each other over a network. These standards ensure that devices from different manufacturers can work together seamlessly by defining the format and structure of data packets, the methods for error detection and correction, and the rules for establishing and terminating connections. By adhering to these standards, devices can communicate effectively regardless of their underlying hardware or software differences, promoting interoperability and compatibility in network communication.

Promoting energy efficiency standards and technologies to enhance energy efficiency in buildings
Considerable progress in energy efficiency in the building sector is reported in the majority of the UNECE member States, and still reaching the potential often falls short due to flawed policy frameworks, and lack of public awareness on available modern technologies and education on long-term economic and social benefits of energy efficiency improvement.This publication is prepared in response to the outlined challenges and aims to elucidate the status of implementation of energy efficiency standards in buildings and deployment of appropriate technologies, and to identify good policy practices and replicable solutions.It also proposes a set of general recommendations and priority actions arising from the analysis.
