  2. Lead time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_time

    A lead time is the latency between the initiation and completion of a process. For example, the lead time between the placement of an order and delivery of new cars by a given manufacturer might be between 2 weeks and 6 months, depending on various particularities. One business dictionary defines "manufacturing lead time" as the total time ...

  3. Lead time bias - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_time_bias

    Lead time bias happens when survival time appears longer because diagnosis was done earlier (for instance, by screening), irrespective of whether the patient lived longer. Lead time is the duration of time between the detection of a disease (by screening or based on new experimental criteria) and its usual clinical presentation and diagnosis ...

  4. Little's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little's_law

    Little's law. In mathematical queueing theory, Little's law (also result, theorem, lemma, or formula[ 1][ 2]) is a theorem by John Little which states that the long-term average number L of customers in a stationary system is equal to the long-term average effective arrival rate λ multiplied by the average time W that a customer spends in the ...

  5. Length time bias - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Length_time_bias

    Length time bias in cancer screening. Screening appears to lead to better survival even when actually no one lived any longer. Length time bias (or length bias) is an overestimation of survival duration due to the relative excess of cases detected that are asymptomatically slowly progressing, while fast progressing cases are detected after giving symptoms.

  6. List of cognitive biases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cognitive_biases

    Automation bias, the tendency to depend excessively on automated systems which can lead to erroneous automated information overriding correct decisions. [53] Gender bias, a widespread [54] set of implicit biases that discriminate against a gender. For example, the assumption that women are less suited to jobs requiring high intellectual ability.

  7. Turnaround time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnaround_time

    Lead Time vs Turnaround Time: Lead Time is the amount of time, defined by the supplier or service provider, that is required to meet a customer request or demand. [5] Lead-time is basically the time gap between the order placed by the customer and the time when the customer get the final delivery, on the other hand the Turnaround Time is in order to get a job done and deliver the output, once ...

  8. Leading and lagging current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading_and_Lagging_Current

    Angle notation can easily describe leading and lagging current: . [1] In this equation, the value of theta is the important factor for leading and lagging current. As mentioned in the introduction above, leading or lagging current represents a time shift between the current and voltage sine curves, which is represented by the angle by which the curve is ahead or behind of where it would be ...

  9. Reorder point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reorder_point

    Reorder level = Average daily usage rate × Lead time in days = 50 units per day × 7 days = 350 units. When the inventory level reaches 350 units an order should be placed for material. By the time the inventory level reaches zero towards the end of the seventh day from placing the order materials will reach and there is no cause for concern.
