Define and discuss time and space utility

Products must be transported from the place where they are produced to the place where customers demand it to be delivered. The value-add that the product gains due to its transport is called space utility. The time utility is the length of time before or between the product deliveries, which consists of mostly storage and inventory time. When the organizations are able to deliver the goods at a time they are needed, then their time utility increases.

Businesses are today competing against each other to attain their set goals. These goals can include raising the levels of profit and increasing their market share, which are facilitated by marketing the goods and services being offered.

Abstract

Eye movement tracking and analysis has gained popularity as a critical tool for evaluating interfaces and visual display. Existing tools and methods that are used in analyzing scan paths and eye movements are to a greater extent limited in the nature of tasks that they support. In particular, the tools used have been found ineffective in tracking large amounts of data that has high variations. Eye movement analysis has been used in psychology, medical research, advertising, and cognitive science. Today, using CCTV cameras, human eye gaze, and eye movement and blinking is relatively recorded with ease and with high ...

A Problem Exists

Riding motorcycles without a helmet can be equated to confronting a risk head on while hoping that chances will likely save you. The best way to stay safe is by preventing the risk in the first place rather than trying to find ways of reducing the impact of the risk. The numbers of motorcycle accidents over the recent past are evidence as to why all motorcycle riders should wear their helmets at all times when riding their motorcycles. Several studies have been conducted by different companies trying to look into the issue of whether the helmets have any correlation ...

The appropriate minimum drinking age is a controversial issue in the United States. The American Constitution defines 21 as the minimum drinking age. However, the provision has faced serious criticism with some people advocating for the lowering of this limit (Ellis 36).

Drawing from Helzer and Canino’s report, 64% of 18 years old Americans consume alcohol with 75% of them being men (124). Studies ...

Abstract

Consuming alcohol is considered a rite of passage for the average young individual. The minimum drinking age required to legally consume alcohol varies in each country, ranging from it always being legal to drinking being illegal at any age, but most countries have set the age at 18-19.

Sinkholes; Made by nature or humans?

Abstract Sinkholes seem to swallow the earth and everything sitting on the surface. Some sinkholes are small and have relatively no effect on humans or property. Some sinkholes are very large and will leave ga[ing holes in the landscape. Sometimes these large sinkholes will devour a road and cause harm to the humans who live, work, and travel where the sinkhole is located. For example, a series of sinkholes and a landslide occurred simultaneously in Harbor, Oregon. This sinkhole was a combination of nature and human activity. Many sinkholes are caused by human activity that nature decides to ...

For this assignment, the analysis was focused on Shaw and Woodrow intersection found close to the Fresno State Recreation Center. In comparison to Woodrow, a two-way two lane, Shaw was found to be much busier because it is an Arterial highway. I began the intersection analysis at 5.00 pm, which is considered as the peak hour. Indifferent to what I expected, the highway tended to be much louder. This can serve as the basis of little to no housing found off the highway. Most of the traffic were heading east bound on the highway approaching 168 freeway. The direction ...

Introduction

Most often, hazardous materials are being transported using motor vehicles from one place to another in order to dump them in designated locations. Statistics, for instance, shows that there are “between 250,000 and 500,000 hazmat shipments take place in the United States every day, resulting in an annual total shipment volume of between 1.5 and 4 billion tons” (Erkut, & Verter, 1997, p.625). According to scholars, when this number is placed in perspective, it would amount to one hazmat truck per five trucks travelling in the U.S. highways (Erkut, & Verter, 1997, p.625).
