There are several types of linear-programming models that exhibit a special structure which can be exploited in the construction of efficient algorithms for solutions to an organisation’s challenges Efficient production planning is a key condition for a production system’s success, which considers the real-world resource limitations such as budget, time and labour. A study is being conducted to develop linear and goal programming models in an attempt to optimise the daily production outputs of your organisation in producing various product mixes. The two goals considered are: Minimising overtime, and maximising the utility of machines used in the production process. please answer the two bolded ones
There are several types of linear-programming models that exhibit a special structure which can be exploited in the construction of efficient algorithms for solutions to an organisation’s challenges. Efficient production planning is a key condition for a production system’s success, which considers the real-world resource limitations such as budget, time and labour. A study is being conducted to develop linear and goal programming models in an attempt to optimise the daily production outputs of your organisation in producing various product mixes. The three goals considered are: maximising the daily sales profits, minimising overtime, and maximising the utility of machines used in the production process. REQUIRED: You are required to develop an efficient solution through the application of linear and goal programming, to a concisely defined problem through examining a situation in a company of your choice to determine the optimal solution to be implemented.

Hickingbottom Corporation has two production departments, Forming and Finishing. The company uses a job-order costing system and computes a predetermined overhead rate in each production department. The Forming Department's predetermined overhead rate is based on machine-hours and the Finishing Department's predetermined overhead rate is based on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the current year, the company had made the following estimates: Forming FinishingMachine-hours 17,000 15,000Direct labor-hours 1,000 7,000Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 96,900 $ 65,800Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $ 2.00 Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour $ 3.60 During the current month the company started and finished Job M381. The following data were recorded for this job: Job M381: Forming FinishingMachine-hours 80 30Direct labor-hours 30 40Direct materials $ 840 $ 350Direct labor cost $ 750 $ 1,000The total job cost for Job M381 is closest…

: You are employed by Univeristy of Gujrat , a university that provides a range of training and education, including Computing, and Information & Communication Technology (ITC). The Head of Department of ITC, Mr Rumi, has discovered that on more than one occasion recently a computer virus has been introduced to the computers in the department. He thinks that the viruses have been introduced from computer disks brought in by students. He has decided to introduce a system where all disks used in the department must be checked for a virus before they can be put into the computers. He says to you, I would like you to send a memo in my name to all teachers who use the computer rooms. You will have to tell them that all disks brought in by students must be checked before there are used. The teachers have to check them carefully, of course. We have got to stop these viruses being introduced before they cause serious problems. Oh yes, reminds them to lock up the rooms when they leave.…
A CISO interacts with many different functional areas across the company, including marketing, sales, finance, and software engineering. Research a management team job description you may not be familiar with, such as the head of marketing or the chief software engineer. Describe the potential conflicts or difference of focus between the information security team and other teams, such as application development, networking, marketing, or finance, and how you would address those conflicts.

Cablesplice, Inc.'s manufacturing process consists of five steps: making con- ductors, adding insulation, adding sheathing, irradiation, and printing and coil cuttingUnits are measured in meters. In 970,000 meters of cable, 700 defects were found in the conductors, and 75,000 defects were found in the insulation. In 440,000 meters of cable, 8,930 defects were found in the sheathing, and no defects were found in the remaining two steps. (a) Find DPU and the dpmo, and (b) the sigma level for each process step.
