During the Spring 2008 semester significant advances were made to the design alogrithms by the Unit Processes team and the Hydraulic Design team. The Hydraulic Design and Unit Processes teams from the Automated Design Team were responsible for determining the best algorithms for each component of the water treatment plant. The AutoCAD team was responsible for continuing the automated design drawing process. The Integration team was responsible for integrating the work done by all other teams in to one comprehensive and fluid master algorithm.
The work of each of these teams began linking towards the end of the Spring 2008 semester in order to create a single Automated Design Program. The ensemble constitutes the automated design program that will be used by the AguaClara team to quickly develop plans for new water treatment plants -to be built in Honduras. At the end of the Spring 2008 semester much work was still necessary to fully integrate the design algorithms make them more efficient.
