If you can think of something, you can simulate it. Experimenting in a simulated world, you can change anything, in any way, at any time - even change time itself. Simulators are gods, ruling in time and space over parallel universes of their own creation. Purdue is at the center of these simulated universes, the Big Bang(s) happened here. The first steps to using the powers of simulation is to be aware of them and their origins. "Mit der Dummheit kämpfen Götter selbst vergebens." - Friedrich Schiller (1759–1805) *Biographical Sketch: * Lee W.Schruben is a Chancellor’s Professor, and former Chair, in the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research at the University of California at Berkeley. Prior to joining the Berkeley faculty, he was on the Operations Research and Information Engineering faculty at Cornell where he held the A. Schultz Professorship in Engineering. His interests are in simulation modeling and analysis with a broad range of applications, currently focusing on biopharmaceutical manufacturing and emergency health care. He spent his first sabbatical year and several summers teaching and doing research with Alan Pritsker and others in the School of Industrial Engineering at Purdue University. rethink IE.blue w black outline.jpg

Fwd: FW: COMMUNICATION: All Hazards Siren Test on Wednesday, March 21
by Donna Bystrom 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

The All Hazards Emergency Warning Sirens will be tested next week as part of Indiana’s Severe Weather Preparedness Week (March 18-24). The 72 Tippecanoe County sirens (including the seven sirens located at Purdue University) will be tested on Wednesday, March 21, between 10 and 10:30 a.m. and again between 7:30 and 8 p.m. If there is inclement weather, the test will be postponed until the same hours on March 22. Please inform building occupants that the sirens will sound on this date. The test is a good opportunity to review your building’s emergency procedures; however, no action is required for this test. Additional information on severe weather preparedness can be obtained from the National Weather Service newsletter: http://www.crh.noaa.gov/images/ind/pdf/2012_%20IN_SVR_WX_Newsletter.pdf Contact the Emergency Preparedness office at 494-0446 if you have any questions.
