The study recommended the following: The need to strengthen the company's management interest in the use of computerized management information systems in all the systems components and elements as being an important variable which contributes to the development of performance. Strengthening the relationship between the users of information system and personnel systems in the department responsible for the system so that employees understand the technological and technical information needed by all users of information systems. It is essential that the company develop the infrastructure for information technology in general, and computerized management information systems, in particular for the development of performance. Increasing attention to provide material resources of equipment and devices used in the computerized management information system, and the interest in providing technical resources for management information systems keeping pace with technological means and modern techniques and work on the training of personnel to use those systems. Greater attention to human resource computerized management information systems “specialized technicians and end-users" through a variety of disciplines working in the field of computerized management information systems. The current study is unique by the virtue of its nature, scope and way of implied investigation, as it is the first study at Gaza Electricity Distribution Company resources explores the status of demographic variables among users of computerized management information systems and their relationship to the development of performance in Gaza Electricity Distribution Company increasing interest in Computerized management information systems through continuity, keeping pace with technological means and modern techniques

    The good planning and management process involves many stages of decision-making and expertise from various fields comprise with information that can be analyst specifically in qualitative or quantitative form and support strategy and action for improving information and to facilitate the adaptability of the planning system. In increasing effectiveness of development control system, town planners are require with update planning data to conduct their decision making in approving planning application. Based on this situation, integrated computerized Development Control System has been developed to assist Planning Department staff which involve with planning application process. This study will discuss an evaluation on the effectiveness of the computerized development control system being developed for the Planning and Development Control Department, City Hall of Kuala Lumpur, with emphasize on the Planning Authorization Subsystem The evaluation involves the comparison between manual practice and system application in planning permission process using Triangulation method which is a combination of 3 analyses technique to achieve the validation in the process. Based on the comparison, computerized system have been identified contain an ability to decrease time and reduce a number of staff involvement in every stage of planning process. With absorption of good urban governance concept, the systems are able to give better services to department staff and public. Generally from the study, the computerized system provide additional assistance in processing planning application compare to the manual method that currently be practice by most local authority in Malaysi

    Road traffic within campus communities has increased tremendously. More persons are now moving around campuses with vehicles than previously recorded. This development will pose a major traffic challenge if it is not addressed urgently. Standard technologies for traffic management in campus communities do not have a computerized framework that can control traffic based on detected level of congestion. The main purpose of this research is to propose a more efficient and effective system for road traffic management in a campus community. The system is completely automated and can manage the ever mounting traffic in campus communities. The proposed campus traffic management system was simulated using Proteus®. Tests carried out on the simulated reallife campus traffic scenario confirmed that the proposed campus traffic management system was better than conventional traffic control systems in existence on campuses

    Understanding the sources of complexity in advanced Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) control rooms and their effects on human reliability is critical for ensuring safe performance of both operators and the entire system. New generation control rooms will rely more heavily on automation and computerized Human-System Interfaces (HSI). Without proper management, information representation and required operator-system interaction could challenge operator information processing capabilities. This paper provides an initial step in assessing the sources of complexity in the NPP control rooms and introduces a systems-theoretic descriptive model of these sources of complexity leveraging network theory.U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissio

    A Secure Grid Medical Data Manager Interfaced to the gLite Middleware

    Get PDF
    International audienceThe medical community is producing and manipulating a tremendous volume of digital data for which computerized archiving, processing and analysis is needed. Grid infrastructures are promising for dealing with challenges arising in computerized medicine but the manipulation of medical data on such infrastructures faces both the problem of interconnecting medical information systems to Grid middlewares and of preserving patients' privacy in a wide and distributed multi-user system. These constraints are often limiting the use of Grids for manipulating sensitive medical data. This paper describes our design of a medical data management system taking advantage of the advanced gLite data management services, developed in the context of the EGEE project, to fulfill the stringent needs of the medical community. It ensures medical data protection through strict data access control, anonymization and encryption. The multi-level access control provides the flexibility needed for imple! menting complex medical use-cases. Data anonymization prevents the exposure of most sensitive data to unauthorized users, and data encryption guarantees data protection even when it is stored at remote sites. Moreover, the developed prototype provides a Grid storage resource manager (SRM) interface to standard medical DICOM servers thereby enabling transparent access to medical data without interfering with medical practice

    The World Health Organization pronounced prevention, control, and management measures necessary from the state of a pandemic by coronavirus (SARS-Cov-2). Planning in situations of uncertainty is a task that aims to discover, evaluate, and face this circumstance. Objective: to describe a computerized solution for the distance control in establishments authorized to operate in the municipality of Gravataí (State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil), from May 1 to August 19, 2020. Results: The legal responsible for the establishment had to declare the customer service total area, administrative/production sector, and the total number of workers. The rule applied was the distance of at least 2 m² among people. A matrix determined by the system of colored flags was used to place a set of deliberations aimed to prevent and confront the COVID-19 epidemic, following mandatory protocols and specific criteria related to economic activities. Conclusion: The automated computerized solution to control distancing was useful for management in terms of inspection and quick decision-making, as it provided the necessary information regarding compliance with municipal and state decrees regarding the prevention of the new coronavirus
