Statistical experimental design is characterized by the three basic principles Replication, Randomization and Blocking (block division, planned grouping). Latin square design is especially useful to separate nonrandom variations from random effects which interfere with the former. An example may be the identification of (slightly) different samples, e.g. sorts of wine, by various testers and at several days. To separate the day-to-day and/or tester-to-tester (laboratory-to-laboratory) variations from that of the wine sorts, an m x m Latin square design may be used. In case of m = 3 all three wine samples (a, b, c) are tested be three testers at three days, e.g. in the way represented in Table 5.8 ... 

A small but diverse team of personnel is typically involved in the activities of the Project Identification and Definition Stage (refer to Figure 2.1). Representatives from groups such as process analytics, process control, project management, central engineering and production operations should populate the team in the first stage. The size and diversity of the team should grow from the identification step to the definition step as resources are allocated and plans developed. 

To help define these benefits as crisply as possible, ask each team member to answer the question, "Why is this plan the best possible way for our company to implement PSM " Then ask each one to list every jjositive characteristic the plan offers and every positive effect the company can expect from it. You will almost certainly find that the results of this brief exerdse can be easily grouped into categories, each of which probably represents a selling benefit. 

Each local emergency planning committee was responsible for developing an emergency response phm by October 17, 1987. An LEPC was to be composed of elected stale and local officials police, fire, civil defense, and public health professionals representatives of community groups ... 

We have said that every time the calibration analyzes a new unknown sample, this amounts to an additional validation test of the calibration. It can be a major mistake to believe that, just because a calibration worked well when it was being developed, it will continue to produce reliable results from that point on. When we discussed the requirements for a training set, we said that collection of samples in the training set must, as a group, be representative in all ways of the unknowns that will be analyzed by the calibration. If this condition is not met, then the calibration is invalid and cannot be expected to produce reliable results. Any change in the process, the instrument, or the measurement procedure which introduces changes into the data measured on an unknown will violate this condition and invalidate the method If this occurs, the concentration values that the calibration predicts for unknown samples are completely unreliable We must therefore have a plan and procedures in place that will insure that we are alerted if such a condition should arise. 

Unfortunately, the chapter on biochemistry, pharmacology and toxicology of sulfones and sulfoxides planned for this volume did not materialize. In view of the importance and interest of methionine sulfoxide, we decided to include this chapter although, unlike the other chapters, it does not deal with the title groups in toto but only with a single representative of them. 

This cautionary remark expressed, we may conclude this section giving a positive answer to our question. Quantum chemistry, in the version cultivated by group II, represents an important factor in the growth of chemistry, and constitute one of the cornerstones of molecular engineering, or similar activities addressed to plan, and to produce, new substances, new materials endowed with special properties. 

It was an outstanding experience to plan, organize and realize this book, and to work with such a distinguished group of contributors. I hope that the readers will enjoy the work they did. I won new friends during this book project, one of which is Pierre-Alain Carrupt. He prepared the cover graphics, which represents the molecular lipophilicity potentials for my PhD molecule verapamil in its extended and folded conformation. 

The chemical process reflected by the basic recipes was modelled using the PPSiM-recipe editor. Each of the nine product groups was represented by one recipe for a nominal size of 100 kg. The outputs of the recipes were adjusted to 200 and 500 kg during production planning by the scaling factors of the control recipes.
