Oct. 1, 2001 Issue of CIO Magazine If you want business credibility, you need to use business tools. Project portfolio management can help align IT, manage value and get you a seat at the big table. BY SCOTT BERINATO Executive Summary Demonstrating IT value is the key to getting new projects off the ground (and keeping old ones going in these tough economic times). For CIOs at Brinker International, Merrill Lynch, Schlumberger and Verizon, project portfolio management is doing the trick. Project portfolio management lets CIOs control their IT investments as one set of activities in one place. A portfolio helps ensure that IT investments are well-balanced in terms of size, risk and projected payoff, and that they are aligned to business objectives. With a portfolio, CIOs can view each initiative in terms of its risk and payoff to the business and then prioritize accordingly. For example, an ERP system might carry a 20 percent risk with a 60 percent payoff, while a CRM project carries an 80 percent risk with a 90 percent payoff. Because portfolio management is familiar to the CFO and founded in the language of business economics, CIOs will gain business credibility by using it. Getting Started on Portfolio Management Do Get out of IT. Learn portfolio management from the experts, such as CFOs and actuarial scientists. Take a class.

Showed for the time. Aritm Aritm 1.0beta3 Aritm trains you in simple mental calculation. This program teaches its users the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division tables. It employs a very effective method, which makes the process short with these useful tables. If you know these tables it is much easier to follow the matematics education. Further more, you can use them in everyday situations, especially if you also know rough estimate calculation. These tables, neither more nor less, is everything you need to know by heart, because there are manual methods for calculating with more complicated numbers. It is always good to do an Aritm workout before you are going to a math test. Also, you can use Aritm to train calculation in foreign languages. You can mix the problems anyway you like, e.g you can choose addition and multiplication at the same time. Addition The sum of two single digit terms. The sum of one double digit and one single digit term. Subtraction The difference of two small terms. The difference of one larger term and one smaller.

HOW TO STUDY MATH AND SCIENCE PREVIEWING Before class briefly preview the text material that will be covered in the lecture. Get an overview of the material by reading the introductory and summary passages, section headings and subheadings, and diagrams. Look at the problems at the end of the chapter. Make note of new terms and theorems. Review (if necessary) old terms and definitions referred to in the new material. Formulate possible questions for class. Remember, the purpose of previewing is not to understand the material but to get a general idea of what the lecture will cover. This should not be a very time-consuming process. NOTE-TAKING When taking notes in class, listen actively ; intend to learn from the lecture. Write down the instructor's explanatory remarks about the problem. Note how one gets from one step of the problem to another. Note any particular conditions of the problem. Note why the approach to the problem is taken. Try to anticipate the consequences of a theorem or the next step in a problem. During a proof, keep the conclusion in mind. Note any concepts, rules, techniques, problems that the instructor emphasizes.
