Corporate environment

Solubility modelling with activity coefficient methods is an under-utilized tool in the pharmaceutical sector. Within the last few years there have been several new developments that have increased the capabilities of these techniques. The NRTL-SAC model is a flexible new addition to the predictive armory and new software that facilitates local fitting of UNIFAC groups for Pharmaceutical molecules offers an interesting alternative. Quantum chemistry approaches like COSMO-RS [25] and COSMO-SAC [26] may allow realistic ab-initio calculations to be performed, although computational requirements are still restrictive in many corporate environments. Solubility modelling has an important role to play in the efficient development and fundamental understanding of pharmaceutical crystallization processes. The application of these methods to industrially relevant problems, and the development of new... 

Once a chemist or chemical engineer has obtained his law degree, what does he do with it A number of different career paths are open to him. Perhaps the most traditional route would be to become a patent lawyer. Often, lawyers trained in chemistry first acquired the incentive for attending law school from exposure to patent lawyers, usually in a corporation environment. Frequently, such lawyers were actually inventors before they became lawyers. 

There are many other advantages to using the schematic capture version. The enormous popularity of the Microsoft Windows operating system should attest to the ease of use of a graphics-based interface compared to a text-based interface. One such advantage is automatic documentation. When you simulate a circuit, you automatically have a circuit schematic. This schematic can be incorporated into lab notebooks and reports. In a corporate environment, documentation of this type is extremely important. With the Windows operating system, the schematics can be incorporated into written documents using screen captures. This manual is an example of what can be accomplished. 

Allen Clamen In the corporate environment we have been living with that all along. You are talking about the university catching up to the corporate environment. That is not such a bad thing because many of those students will end up in industry. 

Another factor in the ADHD/Ritalin boom in the United States may be the disintegration of the family and the pressure of working in the corporate environment. The American family has changed dramatically over the last few decades. It is no longer composed of two parents and children with a close extended family nearby for support. Today, the nuclear family has shrunk to two parents and the children or to one parent and the children. The extended family now often refers to remarried parents, each of whom brings his or her own children to the mixture. This type of extended family, with so many conflicting needs as part of its very nature, may not be the ideal situation for giving individual attention to every child. 

Why is it so difficult to muster just the right amount of perseverance in a corporate environment We believe perseverance is foremost a decision-making problem. To meet performance criteria, project management needs discipline. Typically, at the start of a project the project leader develops a milestone plan as guidance for future project evaluations. When milestones are not met after the originally estimated time, management typically decides to withhold further funding because it has lost faith in the project s likelihood of success. 

Mobility is a frequent occurrence in our corporate environment. Laptops and the use of DHCP facilitate remote connections, as well as the generalization of VPN connectivity. However, this poses a problem when such a host is the subject of a security problem, particularly a viral or worm infection. We need to distinguish the case of laptops connected internally into a site that is not their home site, and laptops using VPN connections to access the information system. 

This is where we started bringing into our discussions the question of problem solving for employment procedures. We talked about hiring strategies and, particularly, the differences between academia and industry. Industry s hiring practices are more formalized—there are procedures and people know how they work. There are some trends that ebb and flow—they may be cyclic—such as going from a central corporate environment to a business-unit-type environment. 

Myra Gordon The question that I have for you is related to an elitism I see in some of the attitudes that some faculty have about the research done in corporate environments. How much of your research is published For faculty members in the top-tier research institutions to feel as if the research that is being done in other settings is really good, it must be peer reviewed and published.

A number of software and database vendors provide programs and database systems to implement representation, registration, and searching of chemical information in a corporate environment. Some of these vendors have smaller personal chemical database systems that support registration and searching on a personal computer. A handful of academic and public domain systems are also available. Finally, an increasing number of chemical information systems are being made available on... 

AAnd then there were only five. As this book is written, the desktop operating system market is dominated by one operating system, while four others are viable options...or pretenders to the throne. Clearly, Windows 95/98 is the primary desktop OS in the world, with a stranglehold on the desktops of the corporate environment and a strong lead in the home market. It is not, though, the...

The already massive use of computers in household and corporate environments is still and will predictably be on the increase In years to come as an obvious result of their progressively falling cost. Laboratories have not failed to recognize their vast potential and have exploited them in a number of fields, particularly in the automation of a variety of processes. Strictly, the role of (mlcro)computers in process automation involves the action of electronics or hardware on the mechanical parts of an instrument with the aim of fully or partly replacing human Intervention. 

At higher levels, similar flexibility will be required to interface not just to manufacturing and business systems but also to individual MES and ERP applications. In a corporate environment that sees businesses choosing and integrating leading technologies from different suppliers for a number of applications, it is important that the applications can easily interface to any and all such applications. 

These open applications may be distributed across numerous platforms within the corporate environment or may reside on any of the system platforms. Depending on the requirements of the individual business, a complete applications solution may well include finance, human resource, production planning, maintenance, health, safety and environmental issues. This is supported by the move toward more modularization of applications (with systems such as SAP R/3) and by the definition of standards for the interchange of information.

If both parties realistically expect benefits from a partnership and if the corporate environments appear supportive, then a partnership is warranted. The appropriateness of any one type of partnership is a function of the combined strength of the drivers and facilitators. A combination of strong drivers and strong facilitators would suggest a type III partnership, while low drivers and low facilitators... 

A survey of Rutgers University students found that in graduate school, a significant number of students admitted to cheating (MBAs 56%, engineering 54%, education 48%, and law 45%). The Ethics Resource Center s 2007 national business ethics survey results showed that within the corporate environment, 56% of employees have observed misconduct 36% fear retaliation and 54% are skeptical that a report would matter (Ethics Resource Center, 2007). Management may not be aware of misconduct, since 42% of employees who observe misconduct do not report it. 

The attitudes to Pharmacia Upjohn became more positive during the study", says Bengt Mattson, Pharmacia Upjohn - Corporate Environment Safety. "This shows that making environmental commitments gives serious pay-back in terms of good-will. The very close collaboration with the hospital personnel also helped us to identify possible improvements in our products and systems. Another important conclusion from the study was that the nurses felt they lack information and knowledge on environmental issues. This should therefore be one of our contributions in these collaborative efforts."...
