In a method for determination of an acquisition sequence for slice plane data of slice planes of an examination subject, the slice plane data are acquired with measurement sequences that each includes a preparation phase and a measurement phase temporally separated from the preparation phase. For n slice planes and a set of sequence parameters that include at least the parameters T: minimal repetition time between two measurement sequences of the same slice plane and T: maximum repetition time between two measurement sequences of the same slice plane, a periodic acquisition scheme that, temporally expanded, is [T, T]-compatible to the k-th degree and has k streams. The association of the n slice planes with the k streams of the acquisition scheme and the order of the slice planes within the respective streams are determined by mixed-integer linear program.

Control process for track-bound vehicles

A process and a device for comprehensive control of a basic industry plant, such as a steel plant or an integrated iron works, which includes subprocesses that are critical with regard to continuous material flow, e.g., casting processes. The invention optimizes the material flow through the system and prevents the interruption of the material flow prior to the start of subprocesses that are critical with regard to continuous material flow. The process sequence in a subprocess is subdivided into four steps, referred to as quarter cells with each quarter cell containing a point in time, a time range to describe possible process time fluctuations, the name of the previous quarter cell, i.e., the name of the previous substep of a subprocess, as well as a marker of whether the process time fluctuation of this subcell is influenceable or non-influenceable.
