Among the hazardous chemical weapons scheduled class 1-3, methyl isocyanate becoming more and more important as a precursor [83]. This is just one among a number of substances which could be made via micro-reactor synthesis. Especially in the case of so-called binary weapons, where two relatively harmless substances are mixed to give a weapon, on-site mixing is demanded this can be accomplished with high performance by micro reactors. Pocket-sized miniature plants can neither be monitored nor detected. 

After intravenous administration of etoposide 150 mg/ m, the peak plasma concentration averages 20 micro-grams/ml and the half-life 7.1 hours. Drug clearance and distribution volume are about 16 ml/minute/m and 17 1/ m (6,7,74). With respect to plasma concentrations of etoposide, intravenous etoposide phosphate is equivalent to intravenous etoposide with conventional or intensified dose schedules (75-79). After intravenous administration, the prodrug etoposide phosphate undergoes rapid hydrolysis catalysed by alkaline phosphatase this conversion is linear even at high intravenous doses of 1200 mg/m infused over 2 hours on days 1 and 2.

An enhanced force model-based /eedrate scheduling (FFS) technique is used to optimize the feedrate for rough cutting of parts with complex free-form surfaces in 5-axis ball-end milling and micro end milling processes. 

Micro-scheduling generates the micro-schedule according to the execution scheme given for each operation (given in the FU specification). Each operation is decomposed into a set of transfers. Each micro-cycle contains a set of parallel transfers that take one basic clock cycle to execute. 

FU allocation is based on an EMUCS-like algorithm [5]. Micro-scheduling uses an ASAP algorithm. Component placement and connection allocation make use of improved constructive approaches similar to those used in APOLLON [6]. The originality of the approach is that all of these algorithms are implemented in order to allow mixed manual and automatic design. With the exception of micro-scheduling, they all use a constructive approach. At each step, a new element is allocated or placed. The four steps may be sequenced automatically or performed step by step. Each step may be executed automatically, interactively, or manually. 

Figure 5 shows the data-path generated automatically for a bubble-sort example [15]. The top window shows the detailed micro-scheduling of control step 25. According to the corresponding FU description, each operation is split into a set of transfers related by precedence constraints (lines in the the top window). In this case, the READ ram operation needs two micro-cycles for execution. The micro-scheduling of this control step resulted in two micro-cycles (basic clock cycles). 

For complex designs, these feedback files provide useful indications that may guide the designer s decisions. For example, in figure 6, we note that the number of busses allocated has exceeded the imposed maximum. In order to reduce the number of busses, we can perform some manual micro-scheduling to remove some of the parallel transfers,...

In order to save connections, a manual modification of the micro-scheduling was performed. The resulting solution is shown in row 3 of table 1. The synthesized data-path is shown in figure 12. The final data-path included only three busses with no cuts. 

At least three companies are active in developing the micro-channel reactors for FT synthesis. Velocys developments are based on initial research conducted at Battelle labs and has invested more than 300 million in developing the technology over the past 15 years [44]. They report that they are at the cusp of commercialization, having completed one demonstration plant with two more scheduled, and they have been recently selected to provide reactors for a plant in the 1000-2000 bbl/day scale. 

The micro-hybrid electric vehicles are the simplest versions that improve fuel efficiency. Burke et al. [2] used a small electric motor and a module of 18 commercial carbon-carbon double-layer-based ESs. They demonstrated a 40% improvement in fuel economy with the Federal Urban Driving Schedule (FUDS) and an increase in engine efficiency of 30% in comparison to an ICE of 19%. 

The Sehalloc algorithm maintains two sets of operations a ready-list, which is the list of operations that are data ready, and a max-micro-group, which is a set of operations that can be executed in one control step. Initially, the max-micro-group is empty, and the ready-list contains all operations that are data ready for the first control step. A branch-and-bound, recursive algorithm is then used for scheduling at each step in the algorithm, all possible max-micro-group and ready-list pairs are determined, Splicer is used to perform the data path synthesis for each, the best solution is retained, and the process repeats until the ready-list is exhausted or the cost exceeds the cost of the best solution. 

A functional unit binding assigns an operation Xa to an allocated functional unit mfh that can perform the operation. Many operations may be bound to the same functional unit if they are not scheduled during the same control step. A functional unit binding includes the creation of a micro-operation that selects the proper function in the proper functional unit. 

At this point, a data path is completed. Based on the scheduled graph and the data path, a control unit is synthesized. The user may choose either a hardwired or a micro-program style.
