         other logistical  limitation.  The water network obtained  with the software  is
         presented by means of a table, indicating all selected connections between sinks
         and  sources.  A  visual  presentation  of  the water  network  is  not  provided  in
         WaterTarget",  unlike  Aspen  Water'@ and  Water.  Water,  although  being  a
         research  tool,  does  provide  a  graphical  presentation  of  the  network,  thus
         allowing a very quick and easy assessment of the effect of changing constraints
         of the design.
           Although the methodology for energy pinch was first extended by the UMIST
         Process Integration group to water systems, the software developed by this group
         has not really developed far beyond the research tool stage, although the Water
         software is in a continual state of development with new features being added
         regularly. Against this, Aspen Technology and Linnhoff March both entered the
         market in 1999 with more user-friendly software than that of the UMIST group,
         both  groups  having  benefited  from  membership  of  the  UMIST  research
