Control systems orientation role

BM controls closely regulate many process variables such as viscosity, stretch, orientation, and swell. Additional productivity in a BM operation can arise from the coordination of various functions in a single control system (as reviewed in Chapter 2, regarding computer integrated systems). Controls clearly play an important role, but they are not the answer to many processing problems, as explained in Chapters 1 through 3. They have to... 

Safety and risk management research in healthcare has adopted as its dominant trend the systems oriented approach, modelled largely on previous research in safely critical industries such as aviation and nuclear power. The systems view entails that the focus is not primarily on the mechanisms of individual human error but on the factors that shape human performance (Rasmussen 1986 Reason 1993,1997). In an organisational context, such factors are, of course, those that are within the control of the organisation. For instance, it has been suggested that quahty and safety are affected not only by operators professional and technical competence and skills, but also by their attitudes to and perceptions of their job roles, their organisation and management (Helmreich and Merritt 1998). Such employee attitudes and views are important elements which shape safety cirlture - and its related notion safety climate . Indeed, survey studies have shown that staff attitudes are important indices of safety performance not only in human-machine system domains such as railway operations and constmction (e.g. Itoh and Andersen 1999 Itoh et al. 2004 Silva et al. 2004) but also in healthcare (e.g. Colla et al. 2005 Itoh and Andersen 2010). 

Some organic reactions can be accomplished by using two-layer systems in which phase-transfer catalysts play an important role (34). The phase-transfer reaction proceeds via ion pairs, and asymmetric induction is expected to emerge when chiral quaternary ammonium salts are used. The ion-pair interaction, however, is usually not strong enough to control the absolute stereochemistry of the reaction (35). Numerous trials have resulted in low or only moderate stereoselectivity, probably because of the loose orientation of the ion-paired intermediates or transition states. These reactions include, but are not limited to, carbene addition to alkenes, reaction of sulfur ylides and aldehydes, nucleophilic substitution of secondary alkyl halides, Darzens reaction, chlorination... 

In addition to the role-based security described earlier, it is necessary that operating system-level security be enforced. It does little good to have sophisticated application-level security if a user can access a controlled directory through the operating system and employ standard tools to modify or delete data. This means that this level of security should be included in planning for the security-oriented validation testing. 

Monolayers (2D films) can be regarded as ultimate thin states of organic and polymeric materials and are quite fascinating for constructing molecular amplification systems for the following reasons. First, the simplest (thinnest) structure of a monolayer allows one to comprehend the details of molecular communications and motions, because the excessive complexities of three-dimensional materials are efficiently excluded. This can lead to many implications on the material design of wide varieties of related systems. Second, for surface-mediated transfer processes, which consist of molecule-to-molecule transfer of information based on molecular orientations inscribed on uppermost surface layers, the existence of monolayers on material surfaces is sufficient for performances of macroscale controls of materials. Note that the nature and behavior of buried photochromic moieties in thicker films play minor roles.
