Statistical Analysis. T-tests, Kruskall-Wallis and analyses of variances were performed using SAS, a statistical computer software program developed by Statistical Analysis Systems, Inc. 

Basically, CMMS/EAM provides computer software programs designed to assist in the planning, management, and administrative procedures required for an effective maintenance process. The need for a maintenance management system, whether manual or computerized, is determined by the need to perform effective maintenance on assets, equipment and facilities. We can think of CMMS/EAM as providing the business system for maintenance operations. 

Software hazard analysis (SWHA) is a system safety analytical technique whose primary function is to systematically evaluate any potential faults in operating system and applications software requirements, codes, and programs as they may affect overall system operation. The purpose of the SWHA is to ensure that safety specifications and related operational requirements are accurately and consistently translated into computer software programs. In this regard, the analysis will verify that specific operational safety criteria, such as failsafe or fail-passive, have been properly assimilated into operational software. The SWHA will also identify and analyze those computer software programs, routines, or functions that may have direct control over or indirect influence on the safe operation of a given system. Also, in the operation of the computer software command function, there is a potential that the actual coded software may cause identified hazardous conditions to occur or inhibit a desired function, thereby creating additional hazard potential. 

Software Fault Hazard Analysis Similar in concept and structure to the system hazard analysis (SHA), which is conducted on system hardware, the software fault hazard analysis will analyze and evaluate a computer software program to identify critical areas in the programming that may contribute to or directly cause a hazard risk. Such risks may be due to an undetected hardware failure or incorrect inputs into the operation of the system software. The software FHA will also attempt to uncover any probable errors that can possible develop in the software after system activation. 

Mathematical models are particularly useful because of the large body of mathematical and computational theory that exists for the study and solution of equations. Based on these theories, a wide range of teclmiques has been developed. In recent years, computer software programs have been written that implements virtually all of these techniques. Computer software packages are now widely available for both simulation and computational assistance in the analysis and design of control systems. 

The Rekker approach is still used with revised Z/ systems, e.g., in the software program Z/SYBYL [8]. Over recent decades various other substructure-based approaches have been developed that are mostly implemented and available as computer programs. 

The choice of variables remaining with the operator, as stated before, is restricted and is usually confined to the selection of the phase system. Preliminary experiments must be carried out to identify the best phase system to be used for the particular analysis under consideration. The best phase system will be that which provides the greatest separation ratio for the critical pair of solutes and, at the same time, ensures a minimum value for the capacity factor of the last eluted solute. Unfortunately, at this time, theories that predict the optimum solvent system that will effect a particular separation are largely empirical and those that are available can be very approximate, to say the least. Nevertheless, there are commercially available experimental routines that help in the selection of the best phase system for LC analyses, the results from which can be evaluated by supporting computer software. The program may then suggest further routines based on the initial results and, by an iterative procedure, eventually provides an optimum phase system as defined by the computer software. 

Section 1. Provides a checklist for evaluating the computer hardware (equipment) and additional software (programs) required to operate the system. The flexibility and ease of use of the system and the availability of training and other types of vendor support are also addressed. 

ENTHALP, a computer software, was developed to calculate the heat of reaction at the system temperature. To run the program, the user must know the following ... 

RISKMAN is an integrated Microsoft Windows , personal computer software system for [H. i forming quantitative risk analysis. Used for PSAs for aerospace, nuclear power, and chemical [iroccsses, it has five main modules Data Analysis, Systems Analysis, External Events Analysis, Event Tree Analysis, and Important Sequences. There are also modules for software system maintenance, backup, restoration, software updates, printer font, and page control. PEG has also integrated the fault tree programs CAFTA, SETS, NRCCUT, and IRRAS into RISKMAN. 

Scheduling of work tasks and therefore labor utilization can be carried out in a number of different methods on a computer, depending on the software system purchased. These methods can be similar to the manual system or they may take the form of automatic scheduling. That is, the work tasks are entered into the computer system with the appropriate hours and trades and the software program automatically schedules the hours evenly over the weeks of the year. In implementing such scheduling care has to be taken to ensure that such items as weekends, statutory holidays, annual leave, annual shutdown and seasonal... 

User-friendly software and hardware The premise of predictive maintenance is that existing plant staff must be able to understand the operation of both the data logger and software program. Since plant staff normally have little, if any, computer or microprocessor background, the system must use simple, straightforward operation of both the data acquisition instrument and software. Complex... 

A specialized MOPAC computer software package and, in particular, its PM3 quantum-chemical program has been successfully applied in calculations. The results of calculations have shown that both oxygen atoms form bonds with two more active carbon atoms of CP molecular cluster (so-called bridge model of adsorption). The total energy of system after a chemical adsorption at such active atoms is minimal. 

The instrumentation for voltammetry is relatively simple. With the advent of analog operational amplifiers, personal computers, and inexpensive data acquisition-control system, many computer-controlled electrochemical systems are commercially available or custom made. Programming complex excitation waveforms and fast data acquisition have become a matter of software writing. 

To do this, we developed a computer software system composed of several major program blocks. These programs and their functions are ... 

Firewalls may be a piece of hardware, a software program, or an appliance card that contains both. Advanced features that can be incorporated into firewalls allow for the tracking of attempts to log on to the local area network system. For example, a report of successful and unsuccessful log-on attempts may be generated for the computer specialist to analyze. For systems with mobile users, firewalls allow remote access to the private network by the use of secure log-on procedures... 

As the pressure for the validation of analytical results to be validated increases, the computer software and the system have had to be modified so that they can operate in a hands-off fashion to a set protocol design. The Touchstone software provides this with the Program facility. Procedures and instruments can be changed within a single run. 

The autosampler system is controlled by an IBM computer system, as is the series of pumps for the cell and the sample wash pot. An Archer single board computer (Sherwood Data System) programmed via ASCII strings along an RS232 interface, controls the pumps and the autosampler, setting up a stable representative sample which is then measured by using the standard Solomat software and hardware.
