With a properly applied condensing heat recovery system, thermal efficiencies nearing 100% can be achieved. Even if your site is unable to achieve this level of efficiency, improvements in energy efficiency can be realized through condensing heat recovery. Typically, 5 to 20 percent fuel savings can be practically and economically realized. Given all that, it makes sense to learn more about condensing heat recovery technologies.

India’s exploration policy has to be in sync with the perception that India’s geological Prospectivity is poor to moderate. Geology of the country cannot be changed but Government Policy and its implementation can ensure extensive appraisal and exploration. Focus of the Government should be on providing appropriate policy and an enabling operating environment to make the sector attractive for investors

Ms. Carol Sommers
Goal - Manage Growth
Outcomes
- Sales
- EBIT
- Free Cash Flow
- Total Value Firm
The team decided to pursue Big-Box Distribution as the company to increase capital budgeting. The goal was to manage growth through positive outcomes in the areas of sales, EBIT, free cash flow, and increasing total value firm. The outcomes were acquired through several actions taken by each team member. Those actions were 1) as acquiring a new customer, 2) leveraging suppliers discount, 3) expand online presence, 4) renegotiated credit terms, 5) adopted and expansion global strategy, developed a private label product and most of all tightened accounts receivable. The overall results varied by team member because each decision was unique but consistent. The goal was to increase the firm’s value while at the same time managing growth.

FIRM
The outcomes of the financial decisions to increase working capital while at the same time managing growth varied by team member. However, based on the working capital simulation results (slide 9) the goal of each team member was to have a positive cash flow but most of all equity and firm value. According to Hao, Jin, and Zhang (2011), investment growth taken by a profitable company enhances investor’s value. The approach taken by the each team demonstrates the potential the company has and is expected to grow. It is important for the executive team to understand that innovation is important to maintain a competitive advantage and increase both equity and firm value.

Explain why the decisions were made (Phase 1)
Acquire a New Customer (Phase 1)
Leveraged Supplier Discount (Phase 1)
Tighten Accounts Receivable (Phase 1)
Drop poorly selling Products (Phase 1)
Team B members selected all 4 business decisions in Phase 1 except Nicole and David who did all but Tighten Accounts receivable.
By not selecting to tighten accounts receivable sales declined as a result of dropping Super Sports Centers, but the accounts receivable improved, freeing up cash flow.
We will be going over each business choice the team members could have made for SNC during the simulation. Most team members made similar decisions by selecting all options during a phase or selecting all but one option during each phase. As we go through each option you will be able to see the impact the choice has on Revenue, EBIT, and Free Cash Flow.
Lucy was the most daring and selected every option available and ultimately created a firm with the highest total firm value of $5,209 and the largest equity value of $2,665
Taking a look at the 1st Phase of decisions for SNC, each team member was given the option to choose to accept or decline the business decision

Nutri (Pty) Ltd is a company which manufactures and distributes a ra.pdfmasheallotrealty
Nutri (Pty) Ltd is a company which manufactures and distributes a range of industrial chemical
products to other manufacturers. You are the audit manager on this audit. While conducting risk
assessment procedures on the 31 March 2022 audit, you gathered the following information,
about the company: 1. During the year Edgar Hoover, the newly appointed chairman of the
board, requested the resignation of the financial director John Dillinger a conservative,
independently minded, and well-respected chartered accountant who had been at Nutri (Pty) Ltd
for some years. John Dillinger had angered the chairman by refusing to implement certain
accounting policies which would improve the performance of the company as reflected in the
financial statements. As their working relationship had become untenable, John Dillinger
resigned. John Dillinger has sued the company for R5 million in respect of monies due to him
when he left the company some months prior to year-end. 2. John Dillinger had been replaced by
Floyd Nelson, a young and inexperienced but aggressive chartered accountant whom the
chairman had recruited from another company. Edgar Hoover also appointed Floyd Nelson as
chairman of the audit committee. 3. Under the direction of Edgar Hoover, the company has
recently set up several joint ventures and other business alliances and a fair number of
transactions have taken place between them and Chemtrade (Pty) Ltd. Documentation relating to
these entities and transactions appears to be minimal. 4. The valuation of inventory at year-end
had in prior years been conducted in conjunction with the external auditors, by an independent
specialist chemical engineer on the insistence of John Dillinger to satisfy audit requirements. For
the current year Floyd Nelson decided against this practice as he deemed it unnecessary, stating
that 'the auditors don't make the rules here; they must accept the valuation arrived at by myself
and the production manager'. 5. During the financial year, the company ceased production of a
particular range of chemicals which it only exported to Europe. Due to the slow economy in
Europe, the orders for this range of chemicals have virtually ceased. However, the company has
a very large stockpile of this range of chemicals and the plant and equipment used in the
manufacture of these products have been lying idle for the seven months prior to the year-end.
According to the production manager, there are no plans to commence with production of this
range or to adapt the plant and equipment to manufacture another type of chemical. 6. During the
financial year, a government environmental agency filed a lawsuit against the company for the
material sum of nearly R10 million for what it describes as 'extensive environmental damage to
certain wetland areas'. The matter is being handled by the company's lawyers, but at the financial
year-end the matter was unresolved. Should the decision go against the company, there could be
serious conseque.
Management presentation from Thermal Energy International's 2020 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. Provides a summary of the results of phases 1 & 2 of the Company's strategic plan; our efforts to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 global pandemic; highlights our digital transformation initiatives; and reviews our fiscal 2020 year-end and fiscal 2021 First Quarter financial results.
This document describes BHP Billiton’s scenario planning approach, including the potential portfolio implications of a transition to a 2°C world, where the global average temperature increase stays below 2°C relative to pre-industrial levels. Our analysis shows that the portfolio is resilient due to long-term demand, high-quality resources, low production costs and rapid payback periods of growth projects. In a 2°C world, we believe there is a likelihood of upside for uranium, high-quality metallurgical coal and iron ore. In addition, we expect that copper is resilient and would offer continued opportunity for growth. The Company’s gas exposure
may also provide significant opportunities during a transition to a lower emissions economy although in the long run, emissions from the use of natural gas will also need to decline. In aggregate, we anticipate these commodities are robust and mitigate potential negative impacts on other commodities. Depending on the speed of transition and the energy choices made, we will have opportunities to mitigate the impacts on the value of our portfolio through selectively investing in the commodities that will benefit from structural market changes. The document has four chapters, each providing additional insight into BHP Billiton’s approach to climate change, actions we are taking and analysis of potential impacts on our portfolio.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
