The construction industry is one of the least digitally advanced industries. Although project-based, a project-level assessment digitalization lacking. aim this paper to develop index assess degree projects. Relying on outcomes workshop with 11 participants and questionnaire responses from 113 site managers in Sweden, four activities; visualized drawings three-dimensional (3D) models sites; upd...

Digitally controlled systems have many well known advantages in comparison to analogue systems e.g. programmability, higher flexibility and modularity, fewer components, lower sensitivity to noise and environment conditions. Theoretically, all analogue control algorithms can be digitalized. But from practical point of view the digitalization often ends up with some major difficulties, which wil...

In 1998, DiBernardo et al. published a very helpful standardization of comparative (before and after) photographic documentation. These standards prevail to this day. Although most of them are useful for objective documentation of aesthetic results, there are at least 3 reasons why an update is necessary at this time: First, DiBernardo et al. focused on the prevalent standards of medical photog...

Until the turn of the millennium, switching tasks required moving locations or reconfiguring physical workspaces. However, contemporary digital tools and workspaces allow knowledge workers to perform an increasingly diverse set of tasks, with an increasingly extending arm of influence, all from the same physical location without any physical reconfigurations or traversing of physical space. Alo...

With the implementation of Article 57(2) in 2012 the European Medicines Agency (EMA) embarked on a digitalization journey that foreseeably would ensure greater product oversight and interoperability across the community. This initiative has subsequently led to additional focus from the agency with respect to the utilization and harmonization of data as part of the regulatory process. Driven by ...

The main control room (MCR) in advanced nuclear power plants (NPPs) has changed from analog to digital control system (DCS). Operation and control have become more automated, centralized, and accurate due to the digitalization of NPPs, which has improved the efficiency and security of the system. New issues associated with human reliability inevitably arise due to the adoption of new accident p...

Industrial production plays an important role for achieving a green economy and the sustainable development goals. Therefore, the nascent transformation of industrial production due to digitalization into a so-called Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is of great interest from a sustainable development point of view. This paper discusses how the environmental dimension of a sustainable develo...
