Computergestützte Auswertung von Informationssammlungen in der Verfahrenstechnik

Computer-aided retrieval of data collections in chemical engineering. Data collections are an important tool for more efficient and economical engineering in the various fields of chemical process technology. The computer-aided utilization of available data collections has major advantages compared with manual processing. Computer-aided utilization can be based on the identification retrieval or rank retrieval method. The advantage of the rank retrieval method is that it provides a spectrum of solutions sorted by the degree of coincidence with the ideal solution. Rank retrieval can be integrated into larger program packages within an integrated computer system which supports the design of chemical plants.
