students‚ In our last lecture you learned to solve zero sum games having mixed strategies. But... Did you observe one thing that it was applicable to only 2 x 2 payoff matrices? So let us implement it to other matrices using dominance and study the importance of DOMINANCE In a game‚ sometimes a strategy available to a player might be found to be preferable to some other strategy / strategies.

The Order of Operations is not one of the hardest‚ nor is it one of the easiest things that you will have to learn in Algebra and other mathematical classes. To begin in learning the Order of Operations‚ you must follow the steps‚ hence the "order" of the operation. To start off‚ the first step would be to do anything that is inside of grouping symbols ([ ]‚ ( )‚ { }). Next you would have to do powers from the left to the right (9 squared). Following the Order of Operations‚ the next phase of

Quick Changeover (SMED) As lean production is dependent upon small lot sizes‚ small lot sizes are dependent upon quick changeovers. If set-ups or changeovers are lengthy‚ it is mathematically impossible to run small lots of parts with low inventory because large in-process inventories must be maintained to feed production during changeovers. For example‚ large stamping dies commonly took hours to change until the development of quick die change methods (Single Minute Exchange of Die‚ or SMED).
