ABSTRACTPI: Marianthi IerapetritouInstitution: Rutgers UniversityProposal Number: 0638947Title: FOCAPO 2008: Multi-Scale Integration of R&D, Manufacturing, and Optimization for Enterprise-Wide OperationsThis travel grant is support for the fifth conference on Foundations of Computer Aided Process Operations (FOCAPO) that will take place during the summer of 2008. The location of the conference will be most likely New England. FOCAPO 2008 will be sponsored by CACHE and CAST with possible additional sponsorships from INFORMS and APICS. The objective of the conference will be to create a forum where the main contributions in the area of process modeling and optimization will be discussed and the remaining challenges identified. The goal to expand the boundaries of process operations to include both smaller and larger scales and probe the problems that arise when modeling simultaneously considers smaller scales, down to the molecular level, as well as the whole supply chain. Bringing together academic and industrial participants, the conference will be a unique environment for discussion of past, present and potential future successes, as well as missed opportunities and failures. This should lead to the identification of road blocks and efficient ways to overcome these difficulties so that the future industrial process operations follow the advances achieved at academic institutions. It is therefore important to include participants from both industry as well as students who will be the future researches and practitioners in this area.FOCAPO 2008 plans on participation by at least 20 graduate students. Invited and contributed papers' sessions will be included, for a total of more than 50 papers. FOCAPO 2008 plans to attract around 150 participants with almost equal academic and industrial participation. Due to the nature of the topic and the increasing effects of globalization, international participation will be substantial. Intellectual Merit:The FOCAPO conference aims at promoting the exchange of ideas and the discussion of novel models, methodologies, solution procedures and innovative optimization approaches for process operations problems. The interaction of academics and industrial representatives is of particular importance and should lead to new collaborative projects of relevance in order to identify practical new problems in industry and publicize past academic advances.Broader Impact:The FOCAPO conferences bring together people (academics and industrial) from different disciplines, in particular chemical engineers, computer scientists, operations research, management science and industrial engineering to address pressing new problems in the area of process operations. They also identify existing bottlenecks to optimal productivity in the pharmaceutical, chemical, food, and agricultural industries. This should benefit U.S. industry and the U.S. economy.

摘要PI：Marianthi Ierapetritouinstitution：Rutgers University Propoposal编号：0638947TITLE：focapo 2008：R＆D，R＆D制造，制造业和企业范围内的运营优化的多规模整合，这本旅行赠款对本次夏季的临时企业的第五次会议（将在2008年临时）进行了支持。 英格兰。 Copapo 2008将由CACHE赞助，并铸造可能来自Informs和APICS的额外赞助。 会议的目的是创建一个论坛，其中将讨论过程建模和优化领域的主要贡献，并确定其余的挑战。 扩展过程操作边界以包括较小和较大的尺度，并探测同时建模时出现的问题的目标，并考虑较小的尺度，以至于分子水平以及整个供应链。 汇集了学术和工业参与者，会议将是讨论过去，现在和潜在的未来成功以及错过的机会和失败的独特环境。 这将导致识别路障和有效的方法来克服这些困难，以便未来的工业流程运营遵循学术机构的进步。 因此，重要的是要包括来自行业的参与者以及将成为该领域的未来研究和从业者的学生。Focapo2008至少有20名研究生参与计划。邀请和贡献论文的会议将包括在内，总共有50多篇论文。 2008年Pocapo计划吸引大约150名参与者，几乎相等的学术和工业参与。 由于主题的性质和全球化的不断影响，国际参与将是重要的。知识分子的优点：焦点会议旨在促进思想的交流以及针对过程操作问题的新颖模型，方法，解决方案程序和创新优化方法的讨论。 学者和工业代表的相互作用尤其重要，应该导致新的相关协作项目，以确定行业中的实用新问题并宣传过去的学术进步。BROADER的影响：焦点会议将不同学科的人（学术界和工业）聚集在不同的学科中，来自不同的化学工程师，尤其是化学工程师，计算机科学家，经营研究，管理科学和工具的工具，以解决新的问题。 他们还确定了现有的瓶颈，以便在制药，化学，食品和农业行业中最佳生产力。 这应该有益于美国行业和美国经济。
