Distributional issues

The physical location of the toller can impact logistics, transportation and distribution issues. If you have a market need in a region of your countiy or a foreign location, a component to consider in selection of the successful toller is the capacity to provide support to the client distribution system or shortest supply chain. 

Some scholars, like Gillette and Krier (1990) and Hornstein (1992), argue that scientific risk analysis fails to recognize important distributional issues. Under some circumstances, for example, it is better to save 2 lives (at a cost of 25 million each) than 1,000 lives (at a cost of 50,000 each). 

Another barrier is the inability of companies to earn the benefits that some technologies, such as distributed generation (DG), can provide to society. One forum participant, an energy industry analyst, noted that the utilization of DG as a means to cope with T D [transmission and distribution] issues is important. Demonstrable studies indicate directly what [the] benefits are. The problem is, that with plain old regulation as we know it, it is difficult for a plain old wires company to take those benefits. ...

The slurry distribution issue is more complicated, if only because there are both mechanical and chemical effects involved. The mechanical component may be tied to the slurry viscosity as well as all the mechanical considerations revolving around the slurry abrasives. The chemical component will be affected by a host of conditions, such as stagnant boundary layers, reactant concentrations, local pH, and isopotential conditions, and so on. 

Global marketplace The global marketplace is a distribution issue. In fact, in today s world there is no choice but to understand the global strategy implications on all distribution decisions. As shifts occur in the world s trading patterns, this changes the distribution requirements, tilters the location and number of warehouses, increases pipeline inventories, and creates new trrrns-portation opportunities and problems. 

People Customers drive the business of distribution, but performance depends upon distribution people. Customer satisfaction results from contact with distribution people, and so an important, ongoing distribution issue remains in people. In the past, distribution people were narrowly focused, having a specialized skill or technical strength. These distribution people do not conform to today s distribution needs. The people needed in distribution today must adopt a broader view of distribution, a more integrated understanding of distribution, a team-based, participative organization culture, and a total dedication to the supply chain and to customer satisfaction. 

In addition, the HELM tracker system is able to utilise spatial plant layout and to prioritise the current distribution issues to recommend an optimised sequence for fault rectification by the operator. 

However, all the above research studies have focused on secret key distribution issues, while the specific and unique challenge in biometric authentication, ie, how to merge the payload with the biometric information while preserving the statistical uniqueness of the biometric information, has not been addressed. Furthermore, all the above-mentioned biometric-based key-exchange schemes need critical time synchronization because they need to record biometric information simultaneously at different positions of the same human body, which incurs considerable extra communication overhead in extremely resource-constrained wearable body sensor networks. In addition, one of the biometric features may not be unique and accidental faulted measures (eg, due to hardware or software failures) may malfunction the traditional biometric-based security system. 

India is a good example of a large and highly populated country that has become increasingly industrialized with a regrettable list of major water-distribution issues. The population is more than 1.1 billion people (it is the second most populous nation in the world) and is estimated to increase 48 percent by 2050. The water-distribution systems in practically all of the cities have fallen into a state of disrepair to the extent that tap water is available for only a few hours a day. About 45 percent of tbe pop>-ulation does not have access to a workable public wastewater system. If this is the situation in an industrialized nation such as India, it gives one pause to think about all of the other countries that are in worse shape economically. 

From this example of a fast, competitive consecutive reaction scheme we can see that nonideal mixing can cause a decrease in selectivity in both continuous and semibatch reactors. Residence time distribution issues can cause a reduction in yield and selectivity for both slow and fast reactions (see Chapter 1), but for fast reactions, the decrease in selectivity and yield due to inefficient local mixing can be greater than that caused by RTD issues alone. In semibatch reactors, poor bulk mixing can also cause these reductions (see Example 13-3).
