Optimization

Cellular manufacturing is an application of Group Technology in which machines or processes have been aggregated into cells, each of which is dedicated to production of a part or product family or limited group of families. Parts with similar processing requirements are identified; these are then placed into logical groups called part families and the equipment requirements for each part family are subsequently determined. A part family is a collection of parts which are similar either because…

Hugo Boss is a German fashion industry and one of the top well-established leading ones around the world for its high-quality in the diverse production of men’s and women’s apparel, shoes, and accessories. Also, Hugh Boss wants to transcend and differentiate from the rest of the competing brands by improving its excellent operational force and unparalleled design. Hugo Boss composes of two distinct brands, Hugo and Boss, and at the same time they divided into five different subsidiary lines…

Telemedicine has made significant advances in treating patients who do not have the luxury of being in front of the specialist they critically need. The use of telemedicine in stroke care is one of the areas that has made a tremendous impact on the survival and recovery of stroke patients. The Tele-stroke component of stroke care brings the neurologist into the remote hospitals that do not have a neurologist on site. This system also brings Tele-stroke technology in the prehospital environment,…

This chapter provides guidelines to the readers to deal with their problems in the life by creating mental and conceptual models and making interactive models. In addition, this chapter guides the readers to improve the models or systems by optimization, removing the obstacles, improving efficiency and robustness, and making continuous improvement in the systems. Moreover, the readers can learn from this chapter how to think bigger by looking a holistic world view of the systems, how the parts…

culture (2% v/v), mixed with the solis substrate and incubated at 30°C. After incubation, RLs were extracted as described above. Control uninoculated flasks were prepared and treated similarly. 1.6.4. Response surface methodology (RSM) for the optimization of RL production under SSF Factors such as inoculum size (represented by the code A), temperature (represented by the code B) and pH (represented by the code C) were optimized by RSM. Experimental Box-Behnken design (BBD) was employed and the…

1. Abstract In this study, reverse micellar extraction of asparaginase model system was carried out using CTAB/Iso-octane/hexanol/butanol system to optimize the forward and back extraction efficiency. By using Taguchi’s orthogonal array (OA), maximum forward extraction efficiency of 55.0%, 61.0% and 54% was achieved with an aqueous phase pH of 11.0, 150mM CTAB/Iso-octane and 0.1 M NaCl, respectively. Similarly, Taguchi’s orthogonal array (OA) was applied to optimize the pH of stripping phase,…

Chapter 11: Application Portfolio Management 1. The CIO is concerned about the ever increasing cost of maintaining the inventory of IT applications in the organization. He has asked you to meet to discuss why this proliferation of applications is occurring? One of the main causes of the ever-growing costs of upholding different technologies, is simply that they are not being disposed when they are stop being relevant. A number of these applications provide obsolete functionality or are…

My view of the entry level of nursing is that not all nurses need to have advanced education completed to begin their quest into the field of nursing. Nurses continue to grow as individuals and professionals through their experiences in healthcare. I began in long-term care with my LPN. I even moved forward into the acute care setting with only my LPN. I have been nursing with great care and compassion since my first days at Bergan, even though I did not have my BSN from the start. My…

only to reflect upon but also to participate in the creation of aging, instead of passively experiencing it as a given reality that is ‘natural’ only for the reason that it exists,” (Baltes & Baltes, 1990). Baltes and Baltes’ model of selective optimization with compensation brings out an important issue with regards onto what successful aging is and what it preaches to live by these means. It recognizes than every individual’s experience with aging is subjective to change which is determined…
