implementation, and change management of LCE. Applicability of this framework is shown using actual cases analysis of a pharmaceutical company. Chapter 4 presents a system to support information transactions between recipe scientists and process engineers; such transactions tend to fail without a suitable management system. In addition, a case-based reasoning approach is introduced as a cooperative method in the system to find relations between errors and deviations. Chapter 5 concludes this dissertation with future prospects. Structure of the Ph D thesis.

“…Observation of the moving vehicle by means of a road mirror helps drivers to feel the approximate distance of the vehicle to the street intersection [3] . In addition, a method of calculating a car's travel time can be used to help identify the above aspects [4] . Thus, a vehicle driver looking into a road mirror using his or her perception of time calculates the time it takes for the vehicle visible in the mirror to move from the moment it is seen in the mirror to the moment it reaches the intersection [3] .…”

<p>A huge and quite important role in safe exit from the street with limited visibility plays traffic mirrors. Traffic mirrors, also known as safety mirrors or blind spot mirrors, have a significant impact on road safety. These mirrors are designed with a curved surface that allows for a wider field of view, making it easier for drivers to see objects and vehicles that may be in their blind spots. In order to commit a safe maneuver driver should be confident that the car moving down the street is at a sufficient and safe distance from the exit. Of course, the driver needs to have a perception of the time of the moving car to the place of exit from the street. All of these things play a significant role in safety exit and avoiding collisions. Traffic mirrors ensure an overview of the situation on the road. Moreover, the driver can measure the approximate distance by counting time for approaching the car. The experiment presented in the work is based on the time of the car’s approach. The purpose of this article is to detect the optimal time as well as distance before the street with limited visibility in order to exit the street safely and to avoid collisions. In this paper, we provide systematic approach to the research of a data and statistics of this data.</p>

There is also a study implanted in Japan focuses on the analysis and the solutions for collisions at uncontrolled intersections in communities, in very accidental situations where aggressive countermeasures were not taken, focusing on human factors [5].…”

Abstract:In this paper we will evaluate the level of ergonomics in an existing industrial zone. This evaluation will enable the community to ensure that the industrial zone meets the expectations of the companies and the involved actors, to identify improvements track and to initiate actions. The aim of this approach is to improve the quality of the area, to give it the maximum chance of perpetuating direct and indirect jobs, to maintain the fiscal resources and to preserve environmental resources (water, energy, landscape, air, etc.) .To meet this evaluation objective, we proposed a model based on the combination of the AHP method and the fuzzy comprehensive technical evaluation. Considering the fuzzy characteristics of factors influencing the level of ergonomics in an industrial zone, a two-level evaluation index system was established. The degree of adherence of factors is determined by the knowledge and experience of the experts. The weight of each factor is determined by the AHP method and a final judgment matrix is determined by the end. This method made the ergonomic evaluation turn from the qualitative to the quantitative.
