On acoustic surveillance of hazardous situations
- In Proc. Int. Conf. on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP2009
, 2009
"... The present study presents a practical methodology for automatic space monitoring based solely on the perceived acoustic information. We consider the case where atypical situations such as screams, explosions and gunshots take place in a metro station environment. Our approach is based on a two stag ..."

Analysis of Drivers ’ Responses under Hazardous Situations in Vehicle Traffic
"... Abstract—This study focused on the analysis of drivers ’ reactions under hazardous scenarios in vehicle traffic. Driving behavior signals were utilized to detect a chain of changes in driver status and to retrieve incidents from a large real-world driving database obtained from the Center for Integr ..."

Cooperative Artefacts: Assessing Real World Situations with Embedded Technology
- In Ubicomp
, 2004
"... Ubiquitous computing is giving rise to applications that interact very closely with activity in the real world, usually involving instrumentation of environments. In contrast, we propose Cooperative Artefacts that are able to cooperatively assess their situation in the world, without need for suppor ..."

Hazardous Software Development
, 1984
"... Developing safety-critical software is often an extremely complicated process, and if managed incorrectly could have the tendency to cause more harm than good. In order to deal with the challenge of writing safety-critical software, certain considerations must be followed. Different case studies wil ..."

to manage difficult tasks that may otherwise be impossible to do. Many industries use systems that pose potential hazards to the general public, such as systems designed for the aviation and social engineering industries. When systems are developed for use in hazardous situations, development strategies
Occupational hazard
"... Occupational hazard refers to a risk or danger as a consequence of the nature or working conditions of a particular job [1]. It can also refer to a work, material, substance, process, or situation that predisposes, or itself causes accidents or disease, at a work place [2]. The history of occupation ..."

Software approach to hazard detection using on-line analysis of safety constraints
- In Proceedings 16th Symposium on Reliable and Distributed Systems SRDS97
, 1997
"... Hazard situations in safety-critical systems are typically complex, so there is a need for means to detect complex hazards and react in a timely and meaningful way. This paper addresses the problem of hazard detection through the development of an on-line analysis tool. The approach allows the user ..."

Analysing Situated Interaction Hazards: An Activity-based Awareness Approach,
- Cognition, Technology and Work,
, 2003
"... Abstract: This paper presents a case for the usefulness of Activity Theory for the analysis of situated interaction hazards in safety-related systems. It is suggested here that situation awareness is a safety critical attribute that is acquired and maintained through situated activity or actions. W ..."
