  • Patent number: 6237915
    Abstract: A game for teaching project management skills is disclosed. The game includes a play space having an area to track progress of tasks from a predetermined group of tasks which upon completion constitutes a game project. The project tasks when completed constitute completion of a game project. The game includes indicators for work effort for workers assigned to the project tasks by the players, tracking project tasks, and project funds. The assigned workers incur corresponding amounts of project funds expenditure during each project period. The game includes first information indicators for each project task, each stating a minimum task completion time, a total work effort, project funds costs, and an inherent delay time for each task.

  • Patent number: 4607086
    Abstract: An improved continuous process for the manufacture of polymers of ethylene in autoclave reactors with practically complete back-mixing under pressure of from about 800 to about 2500 bars in the presence of free-radical-generating initiators is provided wherein (a) two autoclaves are connected in series in such a way that all the reaction product from the first reactor is fed to the second reactor, (b) each autoclave has a length/diameter (L/D) ratio of from about 1:1 to about 3:1, (c) the monomer(s) feed stream is divided between the two reactors such that when the temperature/concentration and/or pressure environment in the first reactor is different from that in the second reactor, the monomer(s) feed stream to the first reactor is equal to or greater than the monomer(s) feed stream to the second reactor, (d) the reaction temperatures in the two autoclaves are set such that when the temperature in the first reactor is different from that in the second reactor, the temperature in the first reactor is lower t
