dealing with water purification systems: valves‚ pumps‚ and flow controllers. The company has been seeing some problems dealing with competition within some of the product markets they produce. Ronald Guidry had two basic questions they wanted answered dealing with this case: 1. Why was it so difficult for the company to stay competitive in the pump market? 2. Why has the company not seen any competition in the flow controller market even with a recent raise in their price to consumers?

Wireless Controller Robotic Arm using Arduino Uno Abstract—This paper presents an innovative wireless robot arm gripper that replicates human arm motion. The development of this robot is based on the Arduino Uno that will interface with the wireless PS2 controller to the robotic part that replicated by the servo motors. The servo will moves the robotic arm‚ base and the gripper through 180° from the default position which is 90°. The S06NF STD servo motor has been placed at the arm part. It

Design of an LQG controller for two inverted pendulums Objective: The objective of this paper is to design linear quadratic controllers for a system with two inverted pendulums on 2-d Plane. To this goal‚ it has to be determined which control strategy delivers better performance with respect to pendulum’s angle and the cart’s position. The inverted pendulums represents a challenging control problem‚ since it continually moves toward

Product Gross Margin Calculation vs. Product Contribution Margin Calculation Assigning the overhead costs to the products shows how profitable the products are after deducting all cost. However‚ it is important to find the appropriate method of overhead cost allocation. In Sippican’s case the traditional accounting method is used‚ which does not reflect the real resource usage of the different product lines. The correct method in this case would be to apply the time-driven ABC approach for cost
