ADDITIONAL CASES I CASE 8.2 CONTINUATION OF THE TEXAGO CASE STUDY Reconsider the case study presented in the supplement to Chap. 8 (on the CD-ROM) involving the Texago Corp. site selection problem. Texago management has tentatively chosen St. Louis as the site of the new refinery. However, management now is addressing the question of whether the capacity of the new refinery should be made somewhat larger than originally planned. While analyzing the site selection problem, the task

Optimization Method Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) a b s t r a c t In this paper, a new method is presented for optimization of heat exchanger networks making use of genetic algorithm and Sequential Quadratic Programming. The optimization problem is solved in the following two levels: 1- Structure of the optimized network is distinguished through genetic algorithm, and 2- The optimized thermal load of exchangers is determined through Sequential Quadratic Programming. Genetic algorithm uses these

Understanding MIS MIS involves issues relating to technical problems, organization and management. There must be a complete and thorough understanding of how these concepts work together. By using MIS a greater asset has been added to any company that wants to succeed. Smart grids differ from the current electricity infrastructure the United States uses by distributing electricity from its network to customers in the form of digital technology so that energy will be conserved, costs will

But, before deciding which is more appropriate, it is essentially important to provide a little background on both. Waterfall A classically linear and sequential approach to software design and systems development, each waterfall stage is assigned to a separate team to ensure greater project and deadline control, important for on-time project delivery. A linear approach means a stage by stage approach for product building, e.g. 1. The project team first analyses, then determining and prioritising
