Abstract: A work scheduling method utilizes a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) which communicates with a work order database and a labor pool database, each having a plurality of entries therein. A resource leveling program accesses the entries in the databases and applies an order of fire to the entries to utilize available manpower in a manner which at least attempts to achieve plant success through the provision of at least a draft work schedule. After running the resource level program, the preferred embodiment allows user input to affect at least portions of the order of fire to allow modification and an ability to rerun the program.

Abstract: Treatments for solid substrates to enhance the durability thereof. The treatments are silicon-containing treatments that form silicon-containing networks on the substrate in a very rapid manner after the incipient components are applied to the solid substrate.
