Ontology driven certification of pressure equipments

An ontology-based semantic service for cooperative urban equipments

The development of SOA (service oriented architecture) applications is a paradigm to consider for the integration of services which usually requires the incorporation of distributed artificial intelligence technologies or multi agent systems (MAS) to achieve their objectives. This is the case of transportation field, where the improvement of urban data networks and embedded systems allow the im...

Reliability Assurance of the Welding by Pressure Equipments

initially on the basis of electronic technology, the researches in the field of reliability have proved their generality, so they can be applied to any technical system including the welding by pressure equipments. The structure of the welding by pressure equipments and their specific characteristics result in a more difficult reliability assurance of this type of systems. In this paper, the re...

Training and certification of blood pressure observers.

Accurate, reproducible measurements of blood pressure (BP) were central to the goals and objectives of the Hypertension Detection and Follow-Up Program (HDFP), a multicenter clinical trial on the efficacy of pharmacological treatment of individuals with elevated BP. All potential BP observers with or without previous experience in measuring BP were required to undergo a defined training program...

Software Quality Through Domain-Driven Certification

Software reuse is being pursued in an attempt to improve programmer productivity. The concept of reuse is to permit various work products of software development to be used on more than one project in order to amortize their development costs. Productivity is not the only advantage of reuse although it is the most widely publicized. By incorporating reusable components into a new product, the c...
