In Australia, mentoring is beginning to emerge on the rural and remote nursing landscape as a strategy to improve the recruitment and retention of nurses. However, the terminology used to discuss this and other supportive relationships in nursing is often unclear and can be confusing. The main aim of this article is to locate mentoring, clinical supervision and preceptoring in the nursing liter...

This paper examines the role of the supervisory authorities for the enforcement of the EU data protection regulation. It therefore examines the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and the upcoming legislative changes under the General Data Protection Regulation, which includes detailed provisions for the cooperation of all European supervisory authorities. It is concluded tha...

Clinical supervision of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with youth ensures better patient care and fosters trainees' professional development. However, often insufficient attention is directed toward disseminating best practices in supervision of CBT with youth. This Therapeutic Advances contribution aims to communicate the core content of supervision. Additionally, the key supervisory pract...

The use of deceptive strategies is important for an agent that attempts not to reveal his intentions in adversarial environment. We consider a setting, which supervisor provides reference policy and expects follow the perform task. may instead different achieve model environment behavior with Markov decision process, represent tasks reachability specifications, study synthesis optimal policies ...

This paper presents a way that fuzzy logic can be used in high level control functions. Specifically, we examine the use of fuzzy logic in supervisory control, for selecting discrete control actions, identifying the operating environment and evaluating controller performance. Proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers are widely used in excitation control of power systems, they exh ibit...

Increasing levels of automation and rising costs of manpower are pushing the DoD towards a supervisory control paradigm for future unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) missions. Using the Supervisory Control Operations User Testbed, a group of 20 participants completed two twenty minute supervisory control missions where eye tracking and performance data were collected. Each mission had 3 levels of ta...

Supervisory control synthesis encounters with computational complexity. This can be reduced by decentralized supervisory control approach. In this paper, we define intrinsic control consistency for a pair of states of the plant. G-control consistency (GCC) is another concept which is defined for a natural projection w.r.t. the plant. We prove that, if a natural projection is output control cons...
