Kernel Metadata Declaration — on demand

ISO 26324 asks a DOI Registration Agency to produce a Kernel Metadata Declaration for every DOI it issues. Give any DOI: its public record becomes a record in the Smart Scholars DOI Metadata Format 1.0, checked against every rule, and declared as the Kernel XML.

Reads the DOI's public Crossref record; nothing is stored. Until Smart Scholars is accredited, every Declaration is marked as a draft in the XML itself.

✓ Meets every rule of the format

The record below is complete and every controlled value is a DOI Attribute Value Set 2.3 spelling. The Declaration on the right follows DOIMetadataKernel.xsd element by element.

        "value": "Lean manufacturing is a systematic approach accepted worldwide to improve a production system by identifying and eliminating wastes in the form of non -value-added activities through continuous supervision. As garment exports has been one of the major driving fa ctors of Bangladesh’s economy, so improvement in garment manufacturing process has become need of the hour for emerging and sustaining as a global leader in this sector. This study focuses on the utilization of a lean tool to analyze the performance of each operator also identifying the lowest-performing operators and improving their performance thus increasing the efficiency and productivity of knitwear (t-shirt) manufacturing unit. This work has identified different problems regarding wastes and weaknesses of operators existing in the sewing section using 8 wastes of the lean tool. The work of each operator has been measured using work measurement tools such as time study and method study and measures were taken to resolve the issues that hindered the efficiency of that production line. After implementation of the lean tool and with the help of time study, the standard minute value of operations was reduced. Likewise, the non -value-added activities nonproductive time of operators were reduced, hence the operator’s performance and line efficiency were improved.This research was conducted to increase the productivity of a garment sewing unit using the lean tool so that this will help improve the operator’s performance and also have a positive impact on the overall t -shirt manufacturing process",
