Abstract
In contrast to the state of the art with respect to the process industries, remarkably little progress has been made in the application of programming models to sector planning for the engineering industries -- non-electrical machinery, electrical products and equipment and transportation equipment. This report summarizes an experimental attempt to construct a sector planning model for appraising prospective investment projects in these industries. It is offered to stimulate interest as well as communication with others working to apply process analysis and programming methods to these industries. Algorithms and experience bearing on the solution of MIP (mixed integer programming) models having the structure of that employed here are also solicited.
