System description is tlie compilation of tlie process/plant information needed for tlie risk analysis. For e. ample, site locations, environs, weatlier data, process flow diagrams (PFDs), piping an instnmientation diagrams (P IDs), layout drawings, operating and maintenance procedures, technology documentation, process chemistry, and tliermophysical property data may be required. 

The information in the Prescription Cost Analysis System and the Base de Datos de Especialidades Farmaceuticas (Pharmaceutical Product Database) is compiled according to accounting criteria. We processed the information and created two structured databases in order to obtain the statistics that will show us the competition and the structure of the pharmaceutical markets of each of the countries studied. 

Corrective and preventive action (CAPA) is the term commonly used to describe the subsystem of a comprehensive quality system that deals with the systematic investigation, understanding, and response to quality issues including nonconformities. A corrective or preventive action may be initiated based on review and analysis of quality data from a variety of sources including adverse experiences, product complaints, quality audits, FDA inspections, third-party inspections, nonconforming materials reports, process control information, trend analyses, and other sources. 

Resch et al. [39] summarise and discuss the whole chain from data retrieval, processing, analysis and visualisation. The general design and structure of such a chain is depicted in Fig. 2, starting with generalised sensors. These sensors can be traditional fixed monitors, but can also be mobile sensors installed on cars, ships or at short-term locations, for example on lampposts. These mobile or moveable sensors can be equipped with a geo-positioning system (GPS) to be employed in geo-information systems (GIS) (e.g. [40]). These applications have been made possible by miniaturisation of the GPS as well as the transfer of data by mobile phone systems. 

Not all possible deficiencies are included in the above statistical analysis. There are also concerns about items such as excessive flare radiation levels, inadequate knockout drums, poorly designed quench systems, discharge of toxic fluids to atmosphere, discharge of combustible or toxic liquids and gases to atmosphere and a general lack of process safety information upon which to base a safe pressure relief system design. Therefore, it could be stated that the actual total deficiency rates reported may even be understated. 

The new versions of DfW are compatible with Microsoft Windows. For the prediction of toxicity the chemical structure of a compound is input into the system with the use of ISIS/Draw (from MDL Information Systems) or by importing a mol-file or sd-file (Figure 2a). After the system has the structure, pushing the process button starts the prediction. During processing, the system searches and identifies all known toxicophores in the structure from all the different toxicological endpoints within seconds. After completion of the analysis, the system opens a result window. The result window contains the imported structure, a list of toxicological endpoints that the system has made a prediction for, the number and name of...
