The digital factory is a concept signing a new era for industry, the so-called Industry 4.0, in which ordinary production systems like manufacturing plants, machineries and utilities are being equipped with diagnostic and sensitive instrumentation to be connected to digital shared networks. This data-sharing, trough the big data management techniques, is a fully integrated base…

The safety management system is recognized by safety leading and lagging indicators, and their correlation with injury rates. The background on this specific subject is vague in definition, labelling, and indicators measurement. The comparativeness between leading and lagging indicators have been introduced in the constructing safety performance projects evaluation. Safety performance leading indicators are the…

Recently, there is an enormous research on the smart campus concept due to the revolution of the IoT technologies. The motivation of this paper is to: reinforce the safety on campus, reduce the cost, and take one step forward toward a University smart campus. In this paper, we are not only proposing a framework that…

Food waste disposal and food availability are both problems in the world today. The ability to monitor food waste is currently limited by the use of manual data collection and sparsity of monitoring. Using sensors to automate the process of measuring and collecting data on food waste would allow constant monitoring and provide a better…

This study presented a prototype augmented reality (AR) application that helps visualize the affordances of everyday objects for infants in their home environments to prevent accidents and promote development. To detect and visualize affordances, we observed 16 infants regarding how they perceive and handle common objects from 4 to 12 months of age in their…

The torch relay for the 2017 Taipei Summer Universiade started June. The innovative torch design was altered and tested, follow-up production successfully. For preventing weather effect, the head of the torch embedded with a unique airflow structure that allowed the sacred flame to pass the wind and rain tests. The safety lantern displays a 3D…

In this work, a representative combinational circuit is visualized in various ways. It is abstracted (concretized) from transistor level to gate level and a structure-preserving transition is carried out into a signal flow graph. For creating a signal flow plan it is necessary to swap the nodes and the edges in the signal flow graph.…

One of the prominent challenges of the automotive-transportation system is represented by the integration of security and safety properties within protocols, applications and connectivity mechanisms. A joint safety/security design can sometimes expose to trade-offs, since their requirements may not match perfectly or even be incompatible. This paper analyses an example of security and safety design,…

Quality assurance of modern-day safety-critical systems is continually facing new challenges with the increase in both the level of functionality they provide and their degree of interaction with their environment.
