CHANDLER - THE ENDURING LOGIC OF INDUSTRIAL SUCCESS Major Claim: Successful firms capitalize on economies of scale & scope‚ create management structures and invest in research & development • Once a firm loses the opportunity to be a first mover‚ it is difficult to regain competitive advantage Secondary Claims: • Growth through unrelated diversification is a poor business strategy • Business ownership patterns have diminished the likelihood of many firms’ long-term success

A History of Computer Programming Languages The first programming languages predate the modern computer. From the first‚ the languages were codes. Herman Hollerith realized that he could encode information on punch cards when he observed that railroad train conductors would encode the appearance of the ticket holders on the train tickets using the position of punched holes on the tickets. Hollerith then proceeded to encode the 1890 census data on punch cards which he made the same size as the boxes

This assignment gave me the opportunity to computerize a manual membership system of Richard’s Tennis Club using various methods and techniques. The computerization of this system introduced several advantages but also created some limitations. The first report in task 1 had to contain a list of all the paid up members. To compile this list‚ the expiry date of each member was calculated depending upon the type of membership. Once the expiry date was set‚ this date was compared to the variable ‘today’

PROBLEM NUMBER 1 A farmer can plant up to 8 acres of land with wheat and barley. He can earn $5‚000 for every acre he plants with wheat and $3‚000 for every acre he plants with barley. His use of a necessary pesticide is limited by federal regulations to 10 gallons for his entire 8 acres. Wheat requires 2 gallons of pesticide for every acre planted and barley requires just 1 gallon per acre. What is the maximum profit he can make? SOLUTION TO PROBLEM NUMBER 1 let x = the number of acres of wheat

Backtracking is a general algorithm for finding all (or some) solutions to some computational problem‚ that incrementally builds candidates to the solutions‚ and abandons each partial candidate c ("backtracks") as soon as it determines that c cannot possibly be completed to a valid solution Recursive Backtracking: an implicit solution tree is built‚ but when it becomes apparent that the current path cannot lead to the desired solution‚ rather than return to the root node‚ the latest alteration

What are computer programming languages? A programming language can be explained to be a language that are used by the machines mainly computer systems. They are notations to write programs which are condition of a computation or algorithm. Few restrict the expression of "programming language" to those languages that are used to express all possible algorithms. The invention of computers is predated by the earlier programming languages that were used to direct the behavior of machines‚ for

GLOBAL CODE ALGORITHM Get the data point from the STL file. These points are saved in form of Matrices. For Example‚ the Vertex matrix is saved a 3-dimensional matrix‚ having 3 vertices for each face‚ and each vertex have three coordinates. So the size of the matrix V will be D1x3x3‚ where D1 is the number of faces. In order to simplify mesh‚ we have used the method where we combine the two vertices of the face if they are less than a threshold value‚ say t= 1.1 units. For a particular face Fn
