Product optimization is the practice of making changes or adjustments to a product to make it more desirable. Description A product has a number of attributes. For example, a soda bottle can have different packaging variations, flavors, nutritional values. It is possible to optimize a product by making minor adjustments. Typically, the goal is to make the product more desirable and to increase marketing metrics such as Purchase Intent, Believability, Frequency of Purchase, etc. Methods Multivariate optimization is one of the most common methods for product optimization. In this method, multiple product attributes are specified and then tested with consumers. Due to complex interaction effects between different attributes for example, consumers frequently associate certain flavors with packaging colors , it is problematic to use mathematical methods, such as Conjoint Analysis, typically used in industrial process optimization. More recently companies started to adopt Evolutionary Optimization techniques for Product optimization. Evolutionary algorithms such as IDDEA are used to optimize products, concepts and messaging.

Orphan date August 2009 Hydrological optimization applies mathematical Optimization mathematics optimization techniques such as linear programming to water related problems. These problems may be for surface water , groundwater , or the combination. The work is interdisciplinary, and may be done by hydrologist s, civil engineer s, environmental engineer s, and operations research ers. Groundwater and surface water flows can be studied with hydrologic simulation . A typical program used for this work is MODFLOW . However, simulation models cannot easily help make management decisions, as simulation is descriptive. Simulation shows what would happen given a certain set of conditions. Optimization, by contrast, finds the best solution for a set of conditions. Optimization models have three parts 1 an objective, such as Minimize cost , 2 decision variables, which correspond to the options available to management, and 3 constraints, which describe the technical or physical requirements imposed on the options. To use hydrological optimization, a simulation is run to find constraint coefficients for the optimization. An engineer or manager can then add costs or benefits associated with a set of possible decisions, and solve the optimization model to find the best solution. Examples of problems solved with hydrological optimization Contaminant remediation in aquifers. The decision problem is where to locate wells, and choose a pumping rate, to minimize the cost to prevent spread of a contaminant. The constraints are associated with the hydrogeological flows. Maximizing well abstraction subject to environmental flow constraints Wagner 1995, Feyen and Gorelick 2005 .

see also Deduplication Capacity optimization is a general term for technologies used to improve storage utilization by shrinking stored data. The primary technologies used for capacity optimization are deduplication and data compression . These solutions are delivered as software or hardware solution, integrated with existing storage systems or delivered as standalone products. Deduplication algorithms look for redundancy in sequences of bytes across comparison windows. Typically using cryptographic hash functions as identifiers of unique sequences, sequences are compared to the history of other such sequences, and where possible, the first uniquely stored version of a sequence is referenced rather than stored again. Different solutions use different methods for selecting data windows, from 4KB blocks to full file comparisons known as Single Instance Storage or SIS. Capacity optimization generally refers to the use of this kind of technology in a storage system. An example of this kind of system is the Venti file system ref http cm.bell labs.com who seanq venti fast02 talk.pdf Venti filesystem ref in the Plan9 open source OS.

Logic optimization , a part of logic synthesis , is the process of finding an equivalent representation of the specified logic circuit under one or more specified constraints. Generally the circuit is constrained to minimum chip area meeting a prespecified delay. Introduction With the advent of logic synthesis , one of the biggest challenges faced by the Electronic design automation EDA industry was to find the best netlist representation of the given design description. While two level logic optimization had long existed in the form of the Quine McCluskey algorithm , later followed by the Espresso heuristic logic minimizer , the rapidly improving chip densities, and the wide adoption of Hardware description language HDLs for circuit description, formalized the logic optimization domain as it exists today. Today, logic optimization is divided into various categories based on two criteria Based on circuit representation Two level logic optimization Multi level logic optimization Based on circuit characteristics Sequential logic optimization Combinational logic optimization While a two level circuit representation of circuits strictly refers to the flattened view of the circuit in terms of SOPs Canonical form Boolean algebra sum of products &mdash which is more applicable to a Programmable logic array PLA implementation of the design Clarify date February 2010 &mdash a multi level representation is a more generic view of the circuit in terms of arbitrarily connected SOPs, POSs Canonical form Boolean algebra product of sums , factored form etc. Logic optimization algorithms generally work either on the structural SOPs, factored form or functional BDDs, ADDs representation of the circuit.

nofootnotes date December 2011 Process optimization is the discipline of adjusting a process so as to optimize some specified set of parameters without violating some constraint. The most common goals are minimizing cost, maximizing throughput, and or efficiency. This is one of the major quantitative property quantitative tools in industrial decision making. When optimizing a process, the goal is to maximize one or more of the process specifications, while keeping all others within their constraints. Areas Fundamentally, there are three parameters that can be adjusted to affect optimal performance. They are Equipment optimization The first step is to verify that the existing equipment is being used to its fullest advantage by examining operating data to identify equipment bottlenecks. Operating procedures Operating procedures may vary widely from person to person or from shift to shift. Automation of the plant can help significantly. But automation will be of no help if the operators take control and run the plant in manual. Control optimization In a typical processing plant, such as a chemical plant or oil refinery , there are hundreds or even thousands of control loops. Each control loop is responsible for controlling one part of the process, such as maintaining a temperature, level, or flow. If the control loop is not properly designed and tuned, the process runs below its optimum. The process will be more expensive to operate, and equipment will wear out prematurely. For each control loop to run optimally, identification of sensor, valve, and tuning problems is important ... supervision.

Query optimization is a function of many relational database management system s in which multiple query plan s for satisfying a query are examined and a good query plan is identified. This may or not be the absolute best strategy because there are many ways of doing plans. There is a trade off between the amount of time spent figuring out the best plan and the amount running the plan. Different qualities of database management systems have different ways of balancing these two. Cost based query optimizer s evaluate the resource footprint of various query plans and use this as the basis for plan selection. Typically the resources which are costed are CPU path length, amount of disk buffer space, disk storage service time, and interconnect usage between units of parallelism. The set of query plans examined is formed by examining possible access paths e.g., primary index access, secondary index access, full file scan and various relational table join techniques e.g., merge join, hash join, product join . The search space can become quite large depending on the complexity of the SQL query. There are two types of optimization. These consist of logical optimization which generates a sequence of relational algebra to solve the query. In addition there is physical optimization which is used to determine the means of carrying out each operation.

Adaptive optimization is a technique in computer science that performs dynamic recompilation of portions of a computer program program based on the current execution profile. With a simple implementation, an adaptive optimizer may simply make a trade off between Just in time compilation and interpreting instructions. At another level, adaptive optimization may take advantage of local data conditions to optimize away branches and to use inline expansion to decrease context switch ing. Consider a hypothetical banking application that handles transactions one after another. These transactions may be checks, deposits, and a large number of more obscure transactions. When the program executes, the actual data may consist of clearing tens of thousands of checks without processing a single deposit and without processing a single check with a fraudulent account number. An adaptive optimizer would compile assembly code to optimize for this common case. If the system then started processing tens of thousands of deposits instead, the adaptive optimizer would recompile the assembly code to optimize the new common case. This optimization may include inlining code or moving error processing code to secondary cache. Deoptimization In some systems, notably the Java Virtual Machine Citation needed date June 2011 , execution over a range of Java bytecode bytecode instructions can be provably reversed. This allows an adaptive optimizer to make risky assumptions about the code. In the above example, the optimizer may assume all transactions are checks and all account numbers are valid. When these assumptions prove incorrect, the adaptive optimizer can unwind to a valid state and then interpret the byte code instructions correctly.
