Whilst black-box models play an essential role, increasingly mechanistic models are being used that are based on the concepts of physics, chemistry and/or biology, which, depending on the application, vary in their degree of detail. The availability of high performance computing combined with fast numerical algorithms, and a new set of tools enables today's researchers to model, and successfully solve, larger and more complex process synthesis problems than ever before. We invite presentations that discuss these and associated modelling topics as applied to process design and integration of design and operations, which may include, but is not limited to, new models of specific plants, new methodologies for the generation, maintenance and representation of process models, and essential new computation technologies (simulation and optimization of large equation systems, complex domain calculations, development of computer aided design tools, real-time integration). In particular we would welcome industrial case-studies. http://www.aiche.org/annualapp/previewmodule/SessionDetail.asp?SessionCode=1 0a06 -- Ashish Gupta, Assistant Professor, Department of Chemical Engineering, University at Buffalo, 610 Furnas Hall, Buffalo, NY 14260 Ph: 716 645 2911 x2221 Fx: 716 645 3822 http://www.eng.buffalo.edu/~ashishg/
