This handbook is a guide for constructing and using composite indicators for policy makers, academics, the media and other interested parties. While there are several types of composite indicators, this handbook is concerned with those which compare and rank country performance in areas such as industrial competitiveness, sustainable development, globalization and innovation. The handbook aims to contribute to a better understanding of the complexity of composite indicators and to an improvement of the techniques currently used to build them. In particular, it contains a set of technical guide

Fiberglass-reinforced and composite plastic (FRP/C) product industries generate wastes (including air emissions) during the fabrication process and from the use of solvents for clean up of tools, molds and spraying equipment. This step-by-step manual provides an overview of the FRP/C process and operations that generate waste and presents options for minimizing waste generation through source reduction and recycling. Includes pre-designed assessment forms along with a detailed waste audit from a composite plastics manufacturing plant. Case studies.

This report describes and documents a methodology and a prototype tool, the Building Blocks To Composite Options Tool (BCOT), for identifying investment options suitable to a particular defense capability area. The report is intended primarily for users of BCOT and those who will extend its functionality in the future, i.e., working analysts and modelers. The methodology ensures that a broad range of investment options is considered initially. It then uses a screening technique to narrow the range to those deemed worthy of more-extensive assessment in a fuller portfolio-analysis framework, suc
