Modelling of Demand Driven Biogas Plants to Cover Residual Load Rises

Farm-scale Biogas Plants

In Germany there are about fifteen years of experience in the planning and construction of farm-scale biogas plants. In the meantime, approximately 1,600 biogas plants are in operation on farms. This is primarily due to investment funding and payment for each kWh delivered to the public energy grid. In general, three different kinds of digester types are in use for anaerobically treating manure...

Perfect Load Balancing for Demand-Driven Parallel Ray Tracing

A demand-driven parallelization of the ray tracing algorithm is presented. Correctness and optimality of a perfect load balancing algorithm for image space subdivision are proved and its exact message complexity is given. An integration of antialiasing into the load balancing algorithm is proposed. A distributed object database allows rendering of complex scenes which cannot be stored in the me...

Modelling Demand-driven Chain Networks using Multiple CODPs

Purpose – to model demand-driven chain networks on basis of multiple Customer Order Decoupling Points (CODPs). Design/methodology/approach – literature study and a case study in dairy industry, based on in-depth expert interviews. Findings – four main underlying factors of CODP diversity are addressed and modelled. Research limitations/implications – the proposed multiple CODP models provide th...
