that the department’s quest to slay theHydra—fully infusing the program with the BOK2 outcomes—could not be accomplished byselectively tweaking courses. Rather, as this paper discusses, a complete review of every aspectof the program was necessary, including the educational objectives, the program outcomes, andthe objectives for each required course. Ultimately, it was a two-year process of programassessment, evaluation and modification to fully implement the BOK2.I. IntroductionA.

Once, power to the centrifugal fan wasturned on, clean filtered air was supplied to the clean space. Using a calibrated hot wire tomeasure air velocity profiles over the duct between the filters and clean room wedetermine the measured volumetric flow rate into the cleanroom to be 0.5 m3/s. Giventhe small, 5.7 m3, total volume of the clean space, this air flow rate implied an airexchange rate for the cleanroom of one complete air change about every 11 seconds, orjust over 300 air changes per

Therefore, instructors must choose simulation topologies that are proven or basedon proven simulations to avoid unnecessary hardship on the students’ part.The development teams for GNS3, Dynagen, and Dynamips are small, and therefore unable torespond quickly with software updates.

A vivid example of this is the caseof the Speedo LZR swimsuit which was developed through a combination of simulation andphysical testing. Experts used FLUENT, a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD)software, to design modifications in the suit that led to a reduction in the water drag on thewearer. Swimmers wearing the LZR suit went on to claim 33 of the first 36 medals in the BeijingOlympic games and continue to break world records, as reported in the popular press6.
