Your product utilizes the concept of target variables to define optimization constraints wherever they are needed; for example:

• Pit Optimizer in “blending” mode uses target variables to formulate blending targets.

• Scheduler uses target variables to formulate scheduling targets.

• MAO and MFO use target variables to formulate “quality targets” and “global targets”.

The purpose of optimization is to optimize an objective keeping the target variables within certain limits or, sometimes, exactly at a target value. You may be required to define one, two or all three of the following parameters, any one of which may vary over time:

• Target (Ideal Value)

• Lower Limit

• Upper Limit
