Chapter 4.16, Problem 14P

Explanation of Solution

Consider the LP problem of HAL computer considering the projects that should be started. Data related to each of the project tabulated.

Consider the following variables x1,x2,........,x7,

xi={1      If project i is undertaken0      otherwise

HAL has the following goals

Goal 1:

The total NPV of all chosen should be at least $200 million. Thus the constraint becomes,

40x1+30x2+60x3+45x4+55x5+40x6+90x7200

Goal 2:

The average probability of success for all projects chosen should be at least 0.75. Thus the constraint becomes,

0.75x1+0.70x2+0.75x3+0.90x4+0.65x5+0.60x6+0.65x70.75

Goal 3:

The average growth rate of all projects chosen should be at least 15%. Thus the constraint becomes,

20x1+16x2+12x3+8x4+18x5+18x6+19x715

Goal 4:

The total cost of all chosen project should be at most $1billion. Thus the constraint becomes,

220x1+140x2+280x3+240x4+300x5+200x6+440x71000

Hence the LP is formulated as given below

Minimize, 0x1+0x2+0x3+0x4+0x5+0x6+0x7

Subjected to the constraints,

40x1+30x2+60x3+45x4+55x5+40x6+90x72000.75x1+0.70x2+0.75x3+0.90x4+0.65x5+0.60x6+0.65x70.7520x1+16x2+12x3+8x4+18x5+18x6+19x715220x1+140x2+280x3+240x4+300x5+200x6+440x71000

xi=0 or 1

From the above equations it is found that these set of constraints there is no feasible region. That is all constraints cannot be met. So assign a cost value incurred if any of the priorities or goal is not met. So, introduce the following deviational variables.

Si= Amount by which numerically under the ith goal

Si+= Amount by which numerically exceed the ith goal

Hence the constraints become,

40x1+30x2+60x3+45x4+55x5+40x6+90x7+S1+S1=2000.75x1+0.70x2+0.75x3+0.90x4+0.65x5+0.60x6+0.65x7+S2+S2=0.7520x1+16x2+12x3+8x4+18x5+18x6+19x7+S3+S3=15220x1+140x2+280x3+240x4+300x5+200x6+440x7+S4+S4=1000

Giving lowest priority to goal 4 and highest priority to goal 1, assign weight to each goal

P1>>P2>>P3>>P4

Now, the goal is to minimize the deviation from each goal

Lab 07: Java Graphics (Bonus lab) In this lab, we'll be practicing what we learned about GUIs, and Mouse events. You will need to implement the following: ➤ A GUI with a drawing panel. We can click in this panel, and you will capture those clicks as a Point (see java.awt.Point) in a PointCollection class (you need to build this). о The points need to be represented by circles. Below the drawing panel, you will need 5 buttons: о An input button to register your mouse to the drawing panel. ○ о о A show button to paint the points in your collection on the drawing panel. A button to shift all the points to the left by 50 pixels. The x position of the points is not allowed to go below zero. Another button to shift all the points to the right 50 pixels. The x position of the points cannot go further than the You can implement this GUI in any way you choose. I suggest using the BorderLayout for a panel containing the buttons, and a GridLayout to hold the drawing panel and button panels.…
If a UDP datagram is sent from host A, port P to host B, port Q, but at host B there is no process listening to port Q, then B is to send back an ICMP Port Unreachable message to A. Like all ICMP messages, this is addressed to A as a whole, not to port P on A. (a)  Give an example of when an application might want to receive such ICMP messages. (b)  Find out what an application has to do, on the operating system of your choice, to receive such messages. (c)  Why might it not be a good idea to send such messages directly back to the originating port P on A?
