...3. Current UTC Systems in South Africa 3.1 Remote Monitoring Systems Remote Monitoring Systems (RMS) are traffic control systems that connect a roadside controller to a central computer to provide a remote monitoring facility at the traffic signal equipment. RMS offers functionality that allows it to monitor digital inputs and outputs, phase outputs and phase lamp monitoring. In the occurrence of any faults, the system connects to the in-station, alerts the operator and lodges the fault simultaneously (Imtech Traffic and Infrastructure UIC Ltd). In addition, these systems offer a range of other features such as traffic data collection, remote clock setting and loading of signal plan configurations. Communication between the roadside controller...

...data and information systems. As we can see from the case there are several examples of the proposed event where there's less rigorous regulation in the supervision of information systems within the company. Most of the issues described in the case are simple little issues such as emailing customer credit card numbers and such but I would have definitely have seen these issues but the lapse of these company have cost them security wise. The best way for organizations to strike the right balance between monitoring and invading their employees' privacy would be to evaluate each employees based on their activities. Have each employee make a report of their activities while the company is monitoring them as well the companies should put trust in their employees to report everything they're doing and when it is time to evaluate them cross compare what has been monitored and what the employees have reported. The consequence biased to one side would be if the company were to engage in just invading employee privacy there could be massive repercussions such as the company being sued etc. The other components are people security, establishing ethical behavior in the company, and managers taking the initiative to stop any leakage in the company. The human factor in is the stronger point in this situation its not the technology that's leaking information but the people the technology is just a tool to do so. The same goes for when it comes to monitoring and making sure that information...

...Currently Riordan Manufacturing has several different offices and each office is using a different type of system, but there is not a central system that monitors each of the satellite offices and their production. To assist Riordan become more efficient, they will need to implement a central system to monitor both individual and overlapping system usage. They should create a Data Center in the corporate office that monitors all of the current systems in place. This will allow Riordan Manufacturing to understand how their business is functioning and how application are used more often and which are not utilized enough, helping to determine if they should upgrade or discontinue the use of a system. Each department uses different applications; some of the applications interface with one another and other are stand alone. Riordan also currently has a lot of manual processes, for example how they submit daily inventory records. With the overall updates that our team has posed have more automation will assist Riordan to increase their production and accuracy. We can implement an application that can be used by all of the centers in order to maintain the inventory across the board so the managers are able to see what is in high demand in specific locations. Having an overall view of the inventory will be beneficial to the entire company. If the marketing department has he ability to see the inventory usage then they will know where they need to market certain products better. We...

...Monitoring sustainability with a monitoring system that is itself sustainable: addressing the cause and the symptoms IAN WATSON,1 AND PAUL NOVELLY, 2 1 Department of Agriculture and Centre for Management of Arid Environments PO Box 483 Northam, Western Australia, 6401 Ph 08 9690 2000 Fax 08 9622 1902 iwatson@agric.wa.gov.au 2 Department of Agriculture and Tropical Savannas CRC Kununurra, Western Australia ABSTRACT Throughout the 1970s and 1980s much effort was expended on a range monitoring program in Western Australia. Unfortunately, much of the system put in place is now inactive. Such a situation is not unique and the rangelands of the world are littered with monitoring sites that are no longer part of an operating system. A need has emerged for a biodiversity monitoring system in the rangelands and the discussion is currently at the point where the range management discipline was in the early 1970s. Efficiencies can be made when developing the biodiversity monitoring system by learning from the experience of the range management profession. Monitoring sustainability will only be possible if the monitoring system is itself sustainable. We suggest a number of attributes for the system that need to be in place before the system can be judged at all sustainable. These attributes are a mix of biophysical, social and institutional and highlight the view that monitoring systems of the type being suggested constitute an unusual mixture of attributes not found in...

...service level, number of calls per employee, first call resolution, and transfer rate. By using the statistical report, it will help show the relationship between their performance and the organization standards or goals and it is easier to visualize. It can also be utilized by the managers to take necessary corrective actions if needed. The response time and service level can be measured by the monitoring how many calls are answered within how many seconds and total number of calls in a day is being answered. It is important to monitor the total amount of calls but we must consider the number of calls an employee is answering and should be reported to ensure that individual employee is properly assessed. This will also show if the employees are answering them promptly and not just a handful is answering the calls. The first call resolution (FCR) measures the individuals’ ability to accomplish the task in one transaction and not transfer the call. Transfer rate indicates how many calls have been transferred to another party to be handled. Monitoring the number of calls being transferred can identify if there are any performance gaps and training if needed (Reynolds 2012).

AmI is a new information paradigm where people are empowered through a digital environment that is “aware” of their presence and context and is sensitive, adaptive and responsive to their needs. Mark Weiser, described the smart environments as physical worlds that invisibly interact with smart sensors, actuators, displays, and computational elements that are seamlessly implanted into our daily live activities. However, smart environments have to be associated with different Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques and algorithms including artificial neural networks, evolutionary computation, swarm intelligence, artificial immune systems, and fuzzy systems.

...Thomaz Paschoal Writ 340 Prof. Townsend 05/01/2012 Illumin Article Portfolio Abstract: This paper is aimed at highlighting the benefits of installing structural health monitoring systems on structures. Through a case study, I examined the various issues with todays outdated visual inspection techniques and showed how the installation of SHM systems on new bridges solves many of these issues. Bio: Thomaz Paschoal is a junior majoring in Civil Engineering at the University of Southern California. He was born in São Paulo, Brazil. Outside of class he is involved with Engineers Without Borders and the American Society of Civil Engineers. Structural Health Monitoring Systems Imagine for just a second that you live in Minneapolis, Minnesota; you work in one of the many shiny downtown skyscrapers. It’s Wednesday, 5:30 p.m., and you decide to go back home to the northern suburbs of the city. You are about to get on the I-35W Bridge over the Mississippi river, a bridge that you take at least twice a day. But this crossing is not like the hundreds of other previous crossings. On August 1, 2007, this bridge, a major commuter route, simply collapses into the river. 13 people die and 145 people are injured and, even more frightening, it could have been worse. The infrastructure in the United States is in need of a major upgrade. There are roads, bridges and tunnels all over the country that are badly in need of repairs. According to the Federal Highway Administration there...
