Software effort estimation‚ measured in number of hours required to develop software‚ is an important activity associated with any software development company. It is used for investment planning and pricing of the software development. One approach usually used for software effort estimation is through Function Point Analysis (FPA). First made public by Allan Albrecht of IBM in 1979‚ the FPA technique quantifies the functions contained within software in terms that are meaningful to the software

INTRODUCTION My topic is oil refinering using linear programming‚ this is under petrochemical industries which mean it will deal more about chemicals‚ this is about optimising the cost using a modelling method in mathematics called linear programming. This is very important because it links what is done in petrochemical industries with mathematics. Since there is a huge need of the products that are produced after petroleum refinering which are petrol‚ gasoline‚ oil‚ diesel and etc so in the

TOPIC – LINEAR PROGRAMMING Linear Programming is a mathematical procedure for determining optimal allocation of scarce resources. Requirements of Linear Programming • all problems seek to maximize or minimize some quantity • The presence of restrictions or constraints • There must be alternative courses of action • The objective and constraints in linear programming must be expressed in terms of linear equations or inequalities Objective

can be used to solve the model. Very few real world problems involve only two variables. For problems with more than two variables‚ we need to use complex techniques and tedious calculations to find the optimal solution. The spreadsheet and solver approach makes solving optimization problems a fairly simple task and it is more useful for students who do not have strong mathematics background. The first step is to organize the spreadsheet to represent the model. We use separate cells to represent decision

DUE: OCTOBER 16‚ 2014 CASE PROBLEM The Southern Textile Mill produces 5 different fabrics. Each fabric can be woven on one or more of the mill’s 38 looms. The sales department’s forecast of demand for the next month is shown in Table 1 along with data on the selling price per yard‚ variable cost per yard‚ and purchase price per yard. The mill operates 24 hours a day and is scheduled for 30 days during the coming month. Fabric Demand Selling Price Variable Cost Purchase Price (yards)
