AbstractWe introduce the Writhe Application Software Package (WASP) which can be used to characterisze the topology of ribbon structures, the underlying mathematical model of DNA, Biopolymers, superfluid vorticies, elastic ropes and magnetic flux ropes. This characterization is achieved by the general twist–writhe decomposition of both open and closed ribbons, in particular through a quantity termed the polar writhe. We demonstrate how this decomposition is far more natural and straightforward than artificial closure methods commonly utilized in DNA modelling. In particular, we demonstrate how the decomposition of the polar writhe into local and non-local components distinctly characterizes the local helical structure and knotting/linking of the ribbon. This decomposition provides additional information not given by alternative approaches. As example applications, the WASP routines are used to characterise the evolving topology (writhe) of DNA minicircle and open ended plectoneme formation magnetic/optical tweezer simulations, and it is shown that the decomponsition into local and non-local components is particularly important for the detection of plectonemes. Finally it is demonstrated that a number of well known alternative writhe expressions are actually simplifications of the polar writhe measure.

And Performance

A methodology for evaluating applications software is proposed, using five different categories of criteria. Three of the categories, functionality, usability, and performance, are tailored for each class of applications software. The other two categories, support and documentation, have generic criteria that can be applied to all types of application software. After a software package has been scored according to the criteria of a category, statistical analysis is used to convert the raw data to a numeric score that can be used to make between-product comparisons. The methodology has been successfully tested with UNIX-based* word processing and data base packages.

Software Packages

Numerous factors exist that may contribute to the unsuccessful completion of application software package implementation projects. The most significant contributor to application software package project failure lies in the misalignment of the organisations business processes with the functionality of the application software package. While various IT control frameworks that may assist in the implementation of application software packages are available, the question arises why industry still reports that the success rate of application software package implementation projects remains low. The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which the Projects in Controlled Environment (PRINCE2) framework assists in the alignment of the organisations business processes with the functionality provided by the application software package implemented. This study investigated whether PRINCE2 addresses all the reasons for project failure. It identifies the shortcomings and weaknesses in PRINCE2 which may contribute to the misalignment between the business processes of the organisation and the functionality of the application software package implemented. The study recommends how these weaknesses identified in PRINCE2 can be addressed. By taking these recommendations into account when using PRINCE2 to implement application software packages, proper alignment between the organisations business processes and the functionality of the application software package may be achieved. This results in a more successful application software package implementation.

This paper will discuss the structure, features and capabilities of the Union Gas Ltd. Station Engineering Electrical/Controls Construction Database. The central feature of the application is the R:BASE database. In general, the database contains information which pertains to a transmission, measurement, regulating and/or compressor station. From the menu-driven custom application software used with R:BASE, the user can perform mass data manipulation to maintain the database, as well as create reports such as the equipment catalogue report. Finally, data can be extracted from the database to auto-generate junction box termination schedules as well as auto-generate, through a CAD software package, instrumentation loop drawings. These have the ability to show information such as panel and I/O module terminations, junction/termination box schedules, cable and conduit schedules, and device information such as alarm, shutdown and control setpoints.

The article is devoted to the study of methods for modeling the operation of rectification columns using the HYSIS application software package. Such studies are very important not only for design, but also for the functioning of existing industries. The article proposes to use for combining nozzle devices in the concentration part of the column, and plate-shaped structures in the distant part of the column for more efficient and stable operation of distillation columns. To determine the hydrodynamic parameters of the operation of distillation column, a technique of determining the range of stable loads and the position of the operating point inside or outside the range of stable loads was taken. A column model was constructed using the HYSYS software package for separating gas mixtures with various contact devices: sieve trays, Rashig ring nozzles. Experiments for the same type and combined contact devices were carried out and their comparison was carried out in terms of hydraulic calculation and operating range. As a result of experiments with the use of the HYSYS software package, it was shown that the combined arrangement of contact devices can provide a stable hydraulic mode, in contrast to the use of similar contact devices.

Software Packages

An application software package implementation is a complex endeavour, and as such it requires the proper understanding, evaluation and redefining of the current business processes to ensure that the implementation delivers on the objectives set at the start of the project. Numerous factors exist that may contribute to the unsuccessful implementation of application software packages. However, the most significant contributor to the failure of an application software package implementation lies in the misalignment of the organisation’s business processes with the functionality of the application software package. Misalignment is attributed to a gap that exists between the business processes of an organisation and what functionality the application software package has to offer to translate the business processes of an organisation into digital form when implementing and configuring an application software package. This gap is commonly referred to as the information technology (IT) gap. This study proposes to define and discuss the IT gap. Furthermore this study will make recommendations for aligning the business processes with the functionality of the application software package (addressing the IT gap). The end result of adopting these recommendations will be more successful application software package implementations.
