Half of Americans donÕt have enough cash on hand for financial emergencies, and almost a third have no retirement savings. Now meet the worldÕs superstar savers. Forbes has compiled stories about ordinary people who have made headlines by accomplishing amazing financial feats, whether thatÕs buying nothing for a whole year or retiring at age 30. Their stories are full of smart spending, saving and investing moves that you can apply to your own life, and youÕll see what it takes to commit to good, wealth-building habitsÑand what to do with the occasional financial slip-up. Ê The best way to develop successful money habits is to learn by example: Many of these people were heavy spenders and acquired massive amounts of debt before deciding to take small, but meaningful, practical first steps toward saving their cash. None of these people stumbled upon their future wealth by winning the lottery or inheriting a trust fund. The most repeated conclusion among these frugal superstars is this: Trade in your consumer impulses for the most valuable thing money can buyÑyour financial freedom.
How to Make Formalisms for Problem Solving in Requirements Engineering
This book explains in detail how to define requirements modelling languages – formal languages used to solve requirement-related problems in requirements engineering. It moves from simple languages to more complicated ones and uses these languages to illustrate a discussion of major topics in requirements modelling language design. The book positions requirements problem solving within the framework of broader research on ill-structured problem solving in artificial intelligence and engineering in general. Further, it introduces the reader to many complicated issues in requirements modelling language design, starting from trivial questions and the definition of corresponding simple languages used to answer them, and progressing to increasingly complex issues and languages. In this way the reader is led step by step (and with the help of illustrations) to learn about the many challenges involved in designing modelling languages for requirements engineering. The book offers the first comprehensive treatment of a major challenge in requirements engineering and business analysis, namely, how to design and define requirements modelling languages. It is intended for researchers and graduate students interested in advanced topics of requirements engineering and formal language design.

Menciptakan Ruang Pasar Tanpa Pesaing dan Menjadikan Persaingan Tidak Lagi Relevan
Kesuksesan sebuah perusahaan kini tidak lagi diukur dengan memengkan persaingan berdarah-darah di samudra merah, tetapi dengan menciptakan ruang pasar baru yang belum termanfaatkan-samudra biru (Blue Ocean Strategy). Lebih dari sepuluh tahun strategi ini digagas dan berhasil dipraktikkan oleh banyak perusahaan. Berdasarkan penelitian pada lebih dari 30 industri selama 100 tahun, penulis menunjukkan cara membuat persaingan menjadi tidak relevan lagi. Namun demikian, beberapa tren global telah berubah dengan sangat cepat, lebih dari yang bisa kita bayangkan. Penciptaan samudra biru saat ini menjadi hal strategis yang justru semakin penting untuk dilakukan, setelah munculnya pertanyaan-pertanyaan baru. - Semua samudra biru pada akhirnya akan ditiru dan berubah menjadi merah, lalu bagaimana memperbarui samudra biru dari waktu ke waktu? - Apa yang harus kita lakukan bila samudra biru kita berubah merah? - Bagaimana menghindari perangkap samudra merah? Pertanyaan-pertanyaan itulah yang mendorong penulis membuat Edisi Pengembangan buku ini, dengan menambahkan 3 bab untuk menjawab hal-hal terkini yang belum ada di edisi sebelumnya.
