This paper describes how knowledge-based techniques can be used to overcome problems of workflow management in engineering applications. Using explicit process and product models as a basis for a workflow interpreter allows to alternate planning and execution steps, resulting in an increased flexibility of project coordination and enactment. To gain the full advantages of this flexibility, chan...

Short Term Load Forecasting(STLF) varies from an hour to hour and is used for requirement for control, unit commitment, security assessment, optimum planning of power generation, and planning of both spinning reserve and energy exchange, also as inputs to load flow studies and contingency analysis. Artificial neural networks (ANN’s) has drawbacks like inputs nodes or hidden nodes which can caus...

In sentence production, grammatical advance planning scope depends on contextual factors (e.g., time pressure), linguistic factors (e.g., ease of structural processing), and cognitive factors (e.g., production speed). The present study tests the influence of the availability of multiple syntactic alternatives (i.e., syntactic flexibility) on the scope of advance planning during the recall of Du...

The principles which should govern the planning of benching and services for new laboratories are enumerated. These include the necessity for long-term planning, flexibility, and economy. The ;Cardiff benching system' where the benches are composed of units that consist of an independent movable table base, a removable bench top, a 6 in. insertion, which enables the bench height to be changed f...

I describe two studies that were designed to illustrate the potential applicability of laboratory-derived ESP effects in trying to predict events of practical consequence in the “real world.” Both studies attempt to predict the behavior of sets of fi nancial indices over a designated week in the future. The studies followed up on earlier work on the prediction of scoring direction and scoring e...

Production flexibility is essential for industrial companies that have to deal with seasonal demand. Human resources are one of the main sources of flexibility. Annualising working hours (i.e., the possibility of irregularly distributing the total number of working hours over the course of a year) is a tool that provides flexibility to organizations; it enables a firm to adapt production capaci...

Th is paper investigates the role of information technology in fi nancial reporting as well as the relationship between using information technology and its impact on the quality of fi nancial reporting. To identify the impact of information technology on quality of fi nancial reporting, a questionnaire was designed and developed. In order to test the hypotheses, T-Test, ANOVA and Duncan’s Test...
