Project initiation

The steps to develop a land reclamation project are generally its initiation, the 

Such a design can be divided into the design of the superstructures (e.g., buildings, pavements, tunnels) and the design of the reclamation area (fill mass) itself The design of the reclamation area is usually prepared by a Consultant or, depending on the type of contract, a Contractor and the results of this are rendered in drawings and Technical Specifications  

The development of a project starts by defining the scope of the project according 

To realise the Client s needs the questions must be considered whether these needs are technically and economically feasible and whether the project can be realised regarding local environmental and planning regulations for which permits may be required. In this context certain compensation or mitigation measures may need to be incorporated.

The DENDRAL project initiated in 1964 at Stanford was the prototypical application of artificial intelligence techniques - or what was understood at that time under this name - to chemical problems. Chemical structure generators were developed and information from mass spectra was used to prune the chemical graphs in order to derive the chemical structure associated with a certain mass spectrum. 

You might have projected that some benefits would be available across the company within 12 months of project initiation. However, you have now concluded that the project will be implemented step-wise one division at a time. The result of this is that although the first benefits will still be seen within one year, the total benefit will not be seen until the third year.

The third cleanup program, also authorized by the RCRA, addresses contamination resulting from leaks and spills (mainly petroleum products) from underground storage tanks (USTs). This law has compelled cleanup activities at many UST sites. By February 1999, over 385,000 releases had been reported, 327,000 cleanup projects initiated, and 211,000 projects completed. 

The XtraFOOD model was developed within the framework of a research project initiated by the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO) [69]. The model calculates transfer of contaminants in the primary food chain (Fig. 8). In the project, the transfer model was coupled with historical food consumption data to estimate human exposure to contaminated food products. The model focuses on the terrestrial food chain. The XtraFOOD model consists of three modules, which are inter-linked ... 

A project initiated by the author when with CSIRO has, as one of the objectives, the study of effect of the mineral matter in selected Australian coals during catalytic hydrogenation (13). 

Step 4 Project initiation and approval Define a project to develop and implement the proposed new method or analyzer and get it approved by the sponsor. The documentation required by the sponsor is usually company-specific, but will typically include goal, business value, critical technical issues to be addressed, ramifications, proposed approach, resources needed (including personnel time), deliverables, and timing. 

In many companies there is an intrinsic lack of understanding between business development and R D. Business development pretends that R D develops primarily new products for which there is no market, whereas R D s position is Our resources do not allow the development of a suitable synthesis for the kind of new products that business development proposes. In order to overcome this impasse, the creation of a new product committee has proved very useful. The committee has the task of evaluating all new product ideas following a standard checklist (see Appendix A.2). It decides whether a new product idea should be taken up in research, and thus becomes a project (see also Section 6.2, on project initiation), and whether an ongoing research project should be abandoned. A warning signal would be if the chance of both a commercial and a technical process diminish continuously over a period of several months ...

Up-to-date and highly practical, Immunochemical Protocols, Third Edition, takes both novice and experienced researchers from project initiation to final test format with a broad array of protocols suited to immediate use in the laboratory, as well as methods that can be successful ly applied to entirely new systems and processes. 

Project Recommendation, Project Initiation, Release for Use, and Retirement are events that must be considered as phase gates or major decision points, and that include formal approvals before development can proceed to the next period. 

The depth of the required steps is estimated using the Criticality and Complexity Assessment and may be performed during the early Project Conceptualization stages of a project and reevaluated at Project Initiation. A sample Criticality and Complexity Assessment can be found in Appendix D. 

Project validation plans should be started during the early stages of a project. Initial project concepts and planning estimates should be elements in the creation of a project validation plans. The initial project verification activities will assess the project team s capability to produce a validated system and provide input for defining the level of testing effort expected. Project verification will identify any critical deviations to the expected project timing and quality levels, as well as other issues affecting the timely approval of the validation report. 

The complete set of genes that contain all the hereditary information of a particular species is called a genome. The Human Genome Project, initiated in 1990, has identified all the genes that occur in humans and also the sequence of bases in these genes.

Exactly two years ago the Harvard Psilocybin Project initiated a research program at Massachusetts Correctional Institution, Concord, designed to test the effects of consciousness-expanding drugs on prisoner rehabilitation.
