How to best establish, communicate, and enforce company technical standards while still allowing for creativity and innovation?  We are architects so we have a lot of regulatory and best-practice types of things to keep in mind when doing projects and need to ensure that everyone in the company does those things similarly.  For example, when doing drawings or writing specifications we need to have some standard practices to make things easier for others to work on the project and to provide consistency in our work product.  But we also don’t want to quash any good ideas or creative solutions.  And we don’t want to make everyone feel like robots.  How can we best achieve those goals?

Hi Maria and Team,

A definition of our company’s technical standard is a pretty open ended question.  For us, I would define it as several different things:

1. Information or knowledge needed to ensure that our projects comply with building codes, best practices, and other written criteria.

2. Information or knowledge needed to ensure that our projects are complete, meet the clients expectations, and are checked for quality.

3. Information or knowledge needed to ensure that our project documentation (drawings, specifications, reports) are complete.

How to calculate the efficiency of a transmission link between two hosts in this question?

A two-way link has a data rate of 40 kb/s while transmitting data in either direction, and a propagation delay of 20 milliseconds in each direction. A is sending frames of L bits to B using stop-and-wait ARQ. A 160-bit acknowledgment frame is returned by B immediately after B receives a full frame of data from A. Define efficiency as the percentage of time that A is sending a frame of data. This ignores the additional inefficiency due to overhead in A’s frames.

What range of values of L  gives an efficiency of at least 50% ?
