The new generation of supervision systems in industry can achieve operation from display process variables to all automated control where the human is just the monitoring automaton. In the railway specific industry, supervision is organised in switching zones and aims to be centralised in an Integrated Control Centre. Such centres implement integrated and computer based systems that perform tra...

One of the ways of attaining higher productivity and profitability in machining processes is to enhance process supervision and control systems. Because of the nonlinear behavior and complexity of machining processes, researchers have used knowledge-based techniques to improve the performance of such systems. Their main reason for using this approach is that a suitable process model is indispen...

Drawing on resource drain theory, we introduce self-regulatory resource (ego) depletion stemming from family–work conflict (FWC) as an alternative theoretical perspective on why supervisors behave abusively toward subordinates. Our two-study examination of a cross-domain antecedent of abusive supervision stands in contrast to prior research, which has focused primarily on work-related factors t...
