single cylinder naturally aspirated engine (CNG) on engine performance based on high-speed high load comparison with baseline conditions early ignition late ignition and rich and lean PV graph and p theta comparison how to do with results (already obtained) comparing emissions, MFB ( 10 % 50% 90%).......Analysis if it's more or less the values how to analyze the basic comparisons for eg baseline vs high speed vs high load if the values are more why is it?
rich and lean comparisons what happens AT TDC early and late ignition ...what happens to the parameter change

Assume you are the Treasurer of Mosaic, with 90-day payment term to all your vendors. If one of your large vendors offers you a 2/30,n/90 term(2% discount for 60-day early payment)on a purchase of $10,000,000.
Assume your cost of capital = 10%
a.What is the annualized cost of the discount offered by your vendor?
b.Will you accept the offer? Explain
Assuming the discount is 1/30 n/90term(1% discount for 60-day early payment)
c.What is the annualized cost of the discount offered by your vendor.
d. Will you accept the offer? Explain

A developmental psychologist who wanted to know if children who started walking earlier performed better in school divided 30 children into Early, Middle, and Late Walkers. At the end of the second grade, the psychologist computed a composite performance score based on teachers' reports and found no overall difference between the groups: Early M = 2.94 (SD = .61); Middle M = 2.84 (SD = .70); Late M = 2.77 (SD = .64); F (2, 27) = .86, p = ns. Interpret this finding for a person who understands the t test for independent means but who is unfamiliar with the analysis of variance.

a. Draw the network (20 points)
b. What is the critical path?
c. How many weeks will it take to complete the project ?
d. Identify the early start, early finish, late start, and late finish for each activity in the project network
e. How much slack does activity B have ?
In: Operations Management
1. A precedence diagram is shown below. Solve the network for the basic scheduling information. For each activity, show the computed value of early start, early finish, late start, late finish, total float, and free float.
| Activity | Duration |
| mobilize | 1 |
| remove siding | 4 |
| excavate/form slab | 7 |
| place slab | 4 |
| set support beam | 1 |
| stud wall up | 6 |
| install siding | 4 |
| install windows | 5 |
| set raffers | 4 |
| install roof | 6 |
| finish trim | 4 |
| paint siding | 7 |

Given the following project:
Act. Preceding Crash Cost Maximum Crash Normal Time Activity (in million $) Time (in months) (in months)
A - 0 0 1
B A 10 2 3
C A 5 1 4
D B 6 1 3
E C 7 2 4
F D, E 9 1 3
SLACK TIME = Late Starting Time – Early Starting Time OR Late Finish Time – Early Finish Time
To reduce the project time as much as possible given its characteristics, what activity or activities can be crashed?

Linux Script
Convert String (Part 1)
Write a simple shell script that takes a permission string expressed as -rwxrwxrwx and prints out whether or not theobject is a directory, file or link. The string is read in from standard input.
Convert String (Part 2)
Modify the script so its able to print out the octal permission which the string represents along with the file type. This is in addition to part 1.
Convert String (Part 3)
For the script in Part 2, modify the script so it can read in as many strings till the end of file is reached.
Convert String (Part 4)
Modify the script so it reads the output of ls -la, converts the permission string into octal, prints out the type of object and also the name of the file.
