In order to establish the feasibility of the project, a study of the history of the nitric acid market over the last decade is presented, both in a domestic and global perspective. The size and nature of the market is studied, including the determination of general trends in industry and potential growth areas.

Figure 5 displays a global perspective of the industry and the capabilities required from a service value netwoik. Here a national data storage solution is to be developed that may be accessed by individual stores, store groups, store chains, or e-pharmacies. Development of such a service value network solution requires industry-wide information sharing, and will eventually lead... 

From the global perspective, each country, each state or member state (in the European Community) may apply similar protocols for the regulation in use of the active substances used in a wood preservative formulation. The complexity of these requirements is certainly not a subject for this section, but it is clear that whilst the time frame for major change may be different on a global basis, the trends are the same. Put most simplistically, these changes have impacted on the wood protection industry in the following areas ... 

Energy theorists of cultural evolution are concerned with the whole sweep of cultural evolution, from prehistoric hunters and gatherers to modern industrial societies. This global, secular perspective is useful in assessing the relevance of ideas advanced to account for short periods of time in the histoi y of particular societies. Those who propose an energy theoi-y of cultural evolution emphasize the problem of causality-whether or not the amount of energy a...

The fine-chemical industry, too, is affected by the global shift of mobile manufacturing and service activities from high-cost to low-cost regions. In a historical perspective, the increasing importance of Asia does not come as a surprise. The Eastern part of the world, especially China and India (Chindia), has held superpower status throughout most of the history of humankind. The twentieth century was an exception. Actually Asia s share of the world GDP developed as follows over the last 135 years 1870, 38% 1913, 25% 1950, 19% 1973, 25%, 2001, 37% (of which China, 12% India, 5%). 

Current practices in industrial pharmacy can now be put in perspective. Typically, the method of choice is univariate one variable at a time (OVAT). One variable is examined for a few conditions, which, in practice, are selected within a safe subset of the permissible design space. A value of this parameter is selected and kept subsequently constant. Another variable is then examined, a value is chosen, and the process continues sequentially. Intuitively, unless the target function is essentially a plane, if the end result is anywhere near the global optimum, it is only by chance. A historical reason for this dated practice is that the regulatory framework greatly discouraged implementation of the virtuous cycle mentioned above, which...
