Today I was task with writing an essay on the importance of being on time at your place of duty. I thought about what I could write about and this is what I came up with. It made me think back to one of my seven army values; Duty. What is my duty? It is my duty to show up at my station of assignment on time if not even a little early. Reasons for this would be that the NCO would know that all personnel are present and ready for the day. I know that my inability to be at the right place‚ at the

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS The solution obtained by simplex or graphical method of LP is based on deterministic assumptions i.e. we assume complete certainty in the data and the relationships of a problem namely prices are fixed‚ resources known‚ time needed to produce a unit exactly etc. However in the real world‚ conditions are seldom static i.e. they are dynamic. How can such discrepancy be handled? For example if a firm realizes that profit per unit is not Rs 5 as estimated but instead closer

conversion of sucrose to its individual carbohydrates glucose and fructose. It does not catalyse the reaction of maltose to 2 glucose or lactose to galactose. In this experiment‚ titrimetric and spectrophotometric methods were used to determine the specificity of invertase by determining the amount of glucose converted from the given disaccharides. The results show that sucrose yielded the least amount of glucose and got the lowest absorbance reading. INTRODUCTION Enzymes are globular proteins. Their

Linear Programming Notes VII Sensitivity Analysis 1 Introduction When you use a mathematical model to describe reality you must make approximations. The world is more complicated than the kinds of optimization problems that we are able to solve. Linearity assumptions usually are significant approximations. Another important approximation comes because you cannot be sure of the data that you put into the model. Your knowledge of the relevant technology may be imprecise‚ forcing you to approximate
