Custom operations

The model we begin with specifies the behavior of our component. Most objects are involved in more than one action Our spreadsheet has addOperand, setNumber, and so on. Some objects are involved in actions with several other objects Whereas the spreadsheet has one user, the bank s ATM has customers, operators, and the bank s host machine to deal with. Each of the actions can be specified at a fairly high level, with details to be worked out later (see Figure 6.32). 

Because these systems can monitor multiple processes, equipment, and infrastructure and then provide quick notification of, or response to, problems or upsets, SCADA systems typically provide the first line of detection for atypical or abnormal conditions. For example, a SCADA system that is connected to sensors that measure specific water quality parameters shows measurements outside of a specific range. A real-time customized operator interface screen could display and control critical systems monitoring parameters. 

It has excellent dielectric properties, between Mylar and Teflon extreme solvent and water resistance and very low permeability. While it has a crystalline melting point of 400°C., it degrades at 200-300°C. in inert atmosphere and oxidizes at 60-100°C. in air, so it is not a high-temperature material. Vacuum deposition is a difficult custom operation, which costs about 250/pound the high melting point and insolubility prevent any conventional thermoplastic processing techniques. 

PET packaging has allowed drinks companies to move into in-house bottle production and to operate more independently from packaging manufacturers. In turn the packaging manufacturers have had to offer a more comprehensive service, from managing in-house operations to training customers operating personnel for fully owned operations. This has allowed drinks companies to drive their own packaging developments and product portfolios.

Data Cartridge. A popular term for user-customizable search "operators" that can be added to the SQL language of a relational database system. An example in chemical information is the addition of a substructure search (SSS) operator to integrate this type of search directly into a relational database search. One advantage of this approach is that the search "strategy" that the relational search program applies can take the complexity of the custom operator into account (the "cost") when performing the various search operations.

The ultimate success of maintenance planning and scheduling will be determined by whether or not the customer is satisfied. All preliminary work to develop a plan and coordinate the scheduled repairs is wasted if execution of the schedule does not occur as promised. The customer (operations) will determine the true success of the planning process. The entire maintenance workforce must understand their service role to operations. As a formal planning process is implemented, an increased focus on customer service must be established. Operations will expect better service and maintenance must commit to providing it. 

In the context of the transport of radioactive material, the term destination means the end point of a journey at which the package is, or is likely to be, opened, except during customs operations as described in para. 581. 

An FU may execute a set of standard operations (which is the case for adders, multipliers, ALUs, etc.) or new customized operations introduced by the user. An FU may be a large complex block such as a cache memory or an I/O unit. It can be called from within a behavioral description in order to perform a...

Several land-based power plants with fast reactors evaluated as having a potential of being deployed in a relatively near-term, are listed in Table 7 above. These plants are sized for towns of several tens of thousands to a hundred thousand. If successful, they could be offered for purchase with customer operation, but with arrangements for fuel cycle and waste services made by the vendor under commercial contract at the time of sale. Fuel leasing may also be an option, as the conversion ratio of a fast reactor core could be made high. 

A custom operator interface was built for this system. This interface is used in parallel with the control system. It has a similar look and feel to the control system, but concentrates specifically on variables that are estimated by the model. The interface provides access to estimated quantities measured quantities used in the model trends of key variables, and alarms on present estimates and predicted values. All graphical elements are animated to enable process status to be seen at a glance. 

Thanks to ease of travel, the media and the World Wide Web customers have never been more informed than they are today. Cnstomers know what they want and know what can be done, they understand the concept of world class and continuous improvement. This is especially true in service industries. As a result of the heightened expectations of customers, operations managers in service sectors have been forced to focus their attention on managing the complete value-adding systan using the principles of supply chain management.

Baker assesses that an understanding of where products are used by customers will increase awareness of the importance of response time. So they plan visits by front line workers to customer operating sites. Since the measures should decrease costs, they also set a goal to remove hours from budgeted labor levels. 

For the Product-FMEA according to the VDA-standard only different type of measures are distinguished, such as measure during development or during customer operation. Typical Design-FMEAs and specially the term System-FMEAs are not directly addressed. Due to the scope the Product-FMEA could be applied on vehicle, system, component, and in case of e.g. semi-conductors on sub-component (or part) level. How the stmcture and how the scope of an FMEA could be tailored based mainly on the complexity and on the product boundary (Fig. 4.46).
