...Foundations of Operational Research and Business Analysis 1 Assignment 2013/14 Author: Thibaut Achard de Leluardière Abstract: Looking through the infinite number of theories and models developed in organisations, this assignment aims at finding out the founding principles of a good OR/MS model and general issues encountered in the setting-up of OR interventions. To try out and compare the insights presented, this assignment proposes to study a specific case about OR modelling in Fishery management. Fishery Management is related to the preservation of fish resources and optimisation of catch and profit of this industry, in a context of high-yield practices and increasingly more complex environmental issues present. This case applies to a large and complex system linked to today’s topics issues of sustainable development. In addition, a personal experience of analytical project related to an internship position as assistant project manager in a leading oil company is proposed to illustrate this essay. This essay concludes by giving recommendations about what could be the characteristics of an ideal portrait of OR/MS model. Introduction: In a letter addressed to English universities after the Second World War, general Pile, a popular British officer who commended the Anti-Aircraft Command, claims for men of sciences ‘able to quickly understand complex issues and to find them simple’. Thus, supporting the fast economic growth in Europe after war, operational...

...HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Eleven days after the proclamation of the Philippine Independence on June 12, 1898, President Emilio Aguinaldo formed his government with the Department of Agriculture and Manufacturing as one of the first agencies. The Department was headed by three directors, Jose Alejandrino (1898-1899), Graciano Gonzaga and Leon Ma. Guerrero, both during the latter part of 1899. In 1901 during the American regime, the Department was renamed Insular Bureau of Agriculture under the Department of Interior and was headed by Americans, Frank Lamson-Scribner (1902), WC Welborn (1904), and Dr. George Nesom (1907). In 1910, the Bureau, under the supervision of the Department of Public Instruction, was headed by Frederick Taylor(1911-1914) and Harry Edwards (1914-1916). After Edwards, the helm of the bureau was again given to a Filipino, Adriano Hernandez who himself was a practicing farmer. In 1917, the Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources (DANR) took over the functions of the bureau and was led by Secretaries Galicano Apacible (1917-1921), Rafael Corpuz (1921-1923), and Silvestre Apostol (1923-1928). During the administration of Secretary Rafael Alunan, Sr. (1928-1932), the DANR became the Department of Agriculture and Commerce. The Bureau of Agriculture was split into two bureaus, the Plant Industry and the Animal Industry. The following year, the Fish and Game Administration and...

...Walmart has been taking the necessary steps to move toward 100% sustainable seafood for the better part of ten years. In working with the MSC they are establishing guidelines for fisheries and encouraging their suppliers to process and distribute sustainable fish, be it wild caught or certain farm raised varieties. As of the end of 2009, “Walmart’s wild seafood was 55% MSC certified… you can’t be 100% certified when you can’t be certified on a number of products. We’re working with MSC to encourage them to build these other certifications standards.” While Walmart is making the necessary changes on the back end to improve the sustainability in their supply chains, they have not truly begun advertising the value of sustainable seafood to their customers. As a result, customers are less likely to pay the higher costs for these “sustainable” alternatives, when they do not recognize the value. In the article outlining Walmart’s Sustainability Strategy specific to inventory management within their seafood supply chain, The Fishin’ Company is one supplier that has embraced Walmart’s asks, spending more time, effort and money to adhere to their sustainability standards. One of the main issues that Walmart faces is the length of time in which it takes for a fishery or supply-company to become MSC certified; the process can take up to two years. Given the increased demand, Walmart cannot afford this lapse in time. Walmart needs to work with the MSC to expedite the process. In order...

...Regional Food Security Experience: Lessons Learnt from India and Timor Leste Food Security in Bangladesh 2 Food Security Status and Challenges Food security situation in Bangladesh has improved, especially on the availability side4, and further improvements on access and utilisation, to be sustainable and large-scale, needs renewed efforts from the government, civil society (including media) and the development partners. Records say in 70s’, 70% people were under the food consumption poverty line. Today this is down to under half of the population. Today, though people are not dying, they are going hungry and becoming stunted with reduced mental and physical capacity. They are suffering. The hungry population of over 60 million people is larger than most other global cases- the third largest poor population in any country after China and India5. Nearly half of Bangladesh’s children are underweight, making it one of the most severe cases of malnutrition in the world. While Bangladesh has definitely got more food than it had thirty years back, yet almost half of Bangladesh is still far from being food secure. The World Bank and GoB-UN in their respective reports on MDGs, put the target of 34% children being underweight as non-attainable at present rates of progress. Much will need to be done to achieve the 2015 MDG target of halving the proportion of people who suffer from hunger and malnutrition. Demographic changes in upcoming years are likely to affect poverty and...

Nez Perce-Idaho, Tribes of the Umatilla-Far North East Oregon, Tribes of Warm Springs-Mid NE Oregon, Tribes of Yakama Nation-Parts of Washington and Idaho. 1.2 (4 points) What are ceded lands? How do the ceded lands give the Treaty Tribes legal authority to manage salmon fisheries on the Columbia? (3-4 sentences) Ceded lands are lands that are required to be turned over to another party. In this case, land was given back to the Treaty Tribes. The ceded land allows the tribes full authority over the salmon fisheries due to ownership of the land and will allow fully control of the fisheries. 1.3 (8 points) Give the purpose for each part of the Lyle Falls Fishway (shown on the map) to demonstrate your understanding of how a fishway works. a. Fish bypass entry (Hint: the fish bypass is located next to an obstacle in the river. How does the bypass help fish get upstream?) This allows a way for the fish to maneuver up stream artificially and lets them be channeled in the proper areas much faster. b. Attraction flow generator. This increases the amount of fish opting to take the artificial fishway. c. Adult trapping and sorting facility. This facility is used to gather eggs and sperm in order to continue the...

...competitiveness and environmental sustainability of agriculture. Overall agriculture development strategy revolves to foster private sector-led development with public sector providing enabling environment through policy interventions and play capacity building role to improve agriculture related practices. The emphasis is on improving productivity and moving from subsistence to market oriented farming in the country to meet the domestic demand and surplus for export. The objective is to exploit potentials of our agriculture sector and use it as engine for economic growth and food security for the country. Consequent upon the devolution of Ministry of Food & Agriculture and Ministry of Livestock and Dairy Development, their development projects were divided into three categories i.e. devolved to provinces, transferred to other federal ministries and closed down owing to near completion or completion.
