Problem Solving for Kids 1.0
It covers some key points in solving problems for kids and adults more>> This article (PROBLEM SOLVING FOR KIDS) discusses some of the key steps in solving a real problem and presents an example that illustrates many of these steps. The example involves the path of an object flying through the air. Gravity is in effect, so the object will eventually fall to the ground. This object could be a softball being tossed, a hose squirting a stream of water, or an arrow flying through the air. Solving the problem requires knowledge of angles and reading graphs. The material should be readily grasped by Grades 4 and up.
The notes are presented in Microsoft Word format. To use the notes, download the zip file and extract the file to a desired directory. The resulting file can be opened and read in Word.<<less

A Look at Real-World Problem Solving 1.0
An approach to the trajectory problem used in Problem Solving for Kids. more>> This paper (A LOOK AT REAL-WORLD PROBLEM SOLVING) presents an example of a real world problem that addresses several important points in the problem solving process. The example problem involves the trajectory of a projectile. The problem is to reach a desired point by selecting a launch angle. This problem has a wide variety of real applications: rocket and missile launching, targeting and intercepts, satellite orbit transfers and rendezvous, numerical optimization, polynomial root finding, and solving nonlinear equations. The mathematics needed to solve the problem are not too involved - only algebra and trigonometry. The process of solving the problem, however, is at times detailed and tedious. But, this is a concept that needs to be taught: real-world problems are not necessarily easy. Before looking at the solution, we will examine the real-world problem solving process.<<less

Windows Problem 1.0
Windows Problem is an automatic detector which will examine your windows computer for windows errors and advise on what you should do to fix them. If your computer is running slow or programs are not working properly, give it a try. more>>
Windows problems can make your computer perform very slowly. This can be on start up, shut down or just slow running in general. They can also cause your games, applications and other software to load slowly, crash or close unexpectedly or not open at all. Windows itself can also be greatly affected by these problems which all in all leads to frustration for you.
Some people will solve windows problems by formating their C drive and loading Windows again. But this is a real pain as you have to back everything up, format and load Windows and then install all of your games, programs and applications again. This means finding installation CDs and the whole thing will consume your day. This approach is not for the novice user as it takes experience and patience to do this properly.
Windows computers have a number of complex parts but one of the most important of all is the Windows Registry. This is a huge collection of instructions, commands and resource links that everything installed on your computer references to run perfectly. This includes Windows itself, applications, games, software and your computers hardware. If anything happens to the registry then your computers performance will start to suffer and if the problem gets worse it may stop working properly.
Most people will not know what to do if their computer develops windows problems. If you take your computer to the local shop they will charge you a fair bit to examine it and fix it for you. Alternatively you can surf the Internet and try poking around to try and fix it but this could make matters worse.

Another Look at Real-World Problem Solve 1.0
An approach to the problem studied in A Look at Real-World Problem Solving. more>> In our paper, A LOOK AT REAL-WORLD PROBLEM SOLVING, a projectile trajectory problem was studied. In that paper, a closed-form expression (an exact equation) to the trajectory problem (required angle to reach a point) was found. Closed-form solutions are rarely possible in the real-world. We usually resort to solving our problems numerically, using a computer. In this work (ANOTHER LOOK AT REAL-WORLD PROBLEM SOLVING), we look again at the projectile problem, but the solution emphasis is on iterative, numerical solutions. Both one-dimensional and two-dimensional solution methods are discussed, as are some of the checks that must be made and the pitfalls that should be avoided when using such methods. For classroom purposes, examples of potential applications of the trajectory equations are discussed.<<less

MendelSolve 1.3 is popular among lots and lots of users as an easy-to-use and proper tool which enables you to solve optimization problems in Excel using a genetic algorithm approach. In much the same way as Solver works it takes a target formula and adjusts inputs to minimize or maximize the result. The advantage of the genetic algorithm approach is its ability to solve non-linear problems and avoid getting locked into a local minimum or maximum. MendelSolve uses an off-the-shelf configuration that works well in most situations but does allow for various parameters to be altered.
