Development and experimental evaluation of branch-and-bound algorithms for determining optimum static job-shop production schedules

Creator:: Ramalingam, P. Rama, 1941-
Abstract:: Branch-and-Bound algorithms are developed to optimally schedule static single- and multi-stage job-shop productions. The 'corollary' of the study is to experimentally verify the effectiveness of branch-and-bound algorithms to overcome the "curse of dimensionality" due to the combinatorial nature of job-shop scheduling problems. The static scheduling problem contemplated in this dissertation...

Approaches to the synthesis of methymycin

Creator:: Raghavan, Palaykotai Rajagopalan
Abstract:: Several approaches to the synthesis of methymycin were investigated. Segment A (39), containing functionality corresponding to C-9, 10, and 11 of methynolide was made in six steps from propionaldehyde in an overall yield of 37%. Oxidation of 34 with silver nitrate gave 35 which, upon hydroxylation with hydrogen peroxide, gave...

An ecological study of Diatomovora amoena, an interstitial acoel flatworm, in an estuarine mudflat on the central coast of Oregon

Creator:: Thum, Alan Bradley
Abstract:: The distribution and abundance of the interstitial acoel turbellarian, Diatomovora amoena Kozloff, 1965 was studied in an estuarine intertidal sand flat in Yaquina Bay, Oregon, from May 1970 through May 1971. Monthly measurements of biological (organics, sulfides, chlorophyll, and carotenoids), pore water (salinity, pH,oxygen, and temperature), and sediment (fine sediment...

Costs of alternative pollution control policies affecting open field burning in the Willamette Valley of Oregon : a study in measurement

Creator:: Brar, Jagjit Singh
Abstract:: Open field burning is the lowest-cost method of harvest residue disposal used extensively by grass seed producers in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. The beneficial effects of open field burning include effective disease control and increased seed yields. However, smoke produced by open burning in the late summer pollutes valley...

Creator:: McCauley, James E., Cutshell, Norman, Carey, Andrew G., Jr., McCauley, James E., Pearcy, William G., Renfro, William C., and Forster, William O.
Abstract:: This annual report describes progress in marine radioecological studies under USAEC Contract Number AT(45-1)2227 Task Agreement 12 during the period 1 July 1970 through 30 June 1971. This contract number replaces USAEC Contract Number AT(45-1)1750 which started 1 June 1962. Although the basic report format has not been greatly changed...

Spectral investigation of the molecular vibration region of single crystalline potassium sulfate

Creator:: Meserole, F. B.
Abstract:: A spectral investigation of the molecular vibration region of the potassium sulfate crystal system was undertaken. This study was initiated to establish the feasibility of using this crystal as a host matrix for ammonium sulfate. Since these two systems are isomorphic and have unit cells of nearly equal volume the...

A compilation of observations from moored current meters and associated oceanographic observations : POLYMODE Array III Cluster C, May 1977 - May 1978

Creator:: Koblinsky, C. J., Keffer, T., and Niiler, Pearn P.
Abstract:: A summary of the observations taken from moored stations and hydrographic surveys in POLYMODE Array III Cluster C is presented. Currents and water temperatures were measured at various depths, including: 150, 225, 300, 500, 750, 1500, 2500, and 4000 meters. Hydrographic surveys were made during the deployment and recovery cruises....
