A Review on Stormwater Harvesting and Reuse
Australia is a country of some 7,700 million square kilometers with a population of about 22.6 million. At present water security is a major challenge for Australia. In some areas the use of water resources is approaching and in some parts it is exceeding the limits of sustainability. A focal point of proposed national water conservation programs is the recycling of both urban stormwater and tr...
متن کاملMethodology for Assessing Tradeoffs between Operational and Environmental Performance in the National Airspace System
Given the growing interest in addressing aviation-related environmental challenges, environmental impacts need to be assessed along with operational performance for any large-scale proposed change to the air transportation system. Existing tools can evaluate operational and environmental performance separately, but do not adequately address tradeoffs between different goals. This work presents ...
متن کاملComparison of storage requirements for two different stormwater harvesting strategies
As stormwater flows are intermittent, the requirement to store urban runoff is important to the design of a stormwater re-use scheme. In many urban areas, the space available to provide storage is limited and thus the need to optimise the storage volume becomes critical. This paper will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of two different approaches of providing storage: 1) a single storag...
متن کاملAssessing Performance of Botswana’s Public Hospital System: The Use of the World Health Organization Health System Performance Assessment Framework
Background Very few studies have assessed performance of Botswana public hospitals. We draw from a large research study assessing performance of the Botswana Ministry of Health (MoH) to evaluate the performance of public hospital system using the World Health Organization Health Systems Performance Assessment Framework (WHO HSPAF). We aimed to evaluate performance of Botswana public hospital sy...
متن کاملAssessing Probabilistic Timing Constraints on System Performance
We propose an algorithm for assessing probabilistic timing constraints for systems including components with uncertain delays. We make a case for designing systems based on a probabilistic relaxation of such constraints, as this has the potential for resulting in lower silicon area and/or power consumption. We consider a concrete example, an MPEG decoder, for which we discuss modeling and asses...
