  2. Backward differentiation formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_differentiation...

    The backward differentiation formula (BDF) is a family of implicit methods for the numerical integration of ordinary differential equations.They are linear multistep methods that, for a given function and time, approximate the derivative of that function using information from already computed time points, thereby increasing the accuracy of the approximation.

  3. Vertical integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_integration

    Distinguish between backward integration, forward integration and balanced integration. Backward vertical integration: A company exhibits backward vertical integration when it controls subsidiaries that produce some of the inputs used in the production of its products. For example, an automobile company may own a tire company, a glass company ...

  4. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_methods_for...

    For example, the second-order equation y′′ = −y can be rewritten as two first-order equations: y′ = z and z′ = −y. In this section, we describe numerical methods for IVPs, and remark that boundary value problems (BVPs) require a different set of tools. In a BVP, one defines values, or components of the solution y at more than one ...

  5. Porter's generic strategies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porter's_generic_strategies

    Differentiate the products/services in some way in order to compete successfully. Examples of the successful use of a differentiation strategy are Hero, Asian Paints, HUL, Nike athletic shoes (image and brand mark), BMW Group Automobiles, Perstorp BioProducts, Apple Computer (product's design), Mercedes-Benz automobiles.

  6. Backward Euler method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_Euler_method

    The region of absolute stability for the backward Euler method is the complement in the complex plane of the disk with radius 1 centered at 1, depicted in the figure. [4] This includes the whole left half of the complex plane, making it suitable for the solution of stiff equations. [5] In fact, the backward Euler method is even L-stable.

  7. Euler method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_method

    The backward Euler method is an implicit method, meaning that the formula for the backward Euler method has + on both sides, so when applying the backward Euler method we have to solve an equation. This makes the implementation more costly.

  8. Tapered integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapered_integration

    Examples for tapered integration are (1) Tim Hortons owning some of its retail outlets but also using franchising, (2) Coca-Cola and Pepsi both having integrated bottling subsidiaries while also relying on independent bottlers for production and distribution in some markets, or (3) BMW which uses both in-house market research from its Corporate Center Development and external market research ...

  9. Explicit and implicit methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explicit_and_implicit_methods

    Explicit and implicit methods are approaches used in numerical analysis for obtaining numerical approximations to the solutions of time-dependent ordinary and partial differential equations, as is required in computer simulations of physical processes.
