Normal Operation Safety Survey (NOSS) is a safety management tool used by air traffic control organizations to measure data related to threats and errors to proactively prevent accidents before they occur. NOSS was developed to be applied to the air traffic control field according to the concept of Line Operation Safety Audit (LOSA) conducted by airlines to reduce human errors in the cockpits. Safety management based on data is crucial for the prevention of control-related accidents, and the competency of observers for this is important for the successful implementation of NOSS. Based on LOSA implementation experiences and expert interviews, this paper introduces the international NOSS methods and discusses the key factors required for effective observation and the implementation methods and implications of NOSS observer training.

We propose an adaptive monitoring a, pp.oach for serially correlated data. This algorithm uses the adaptive linear prediction lattice filter (ALPLF) which makes it compute process parameters in real time and recursively update their estimates. It involves computation of the forward and backward prediction errors. CUSUM control charts are a, pp.ied to prediction errors simulaneously in both directions as an omnibus method for detecting changes in process parameters. Results of computer simulations demonstrate that the proposed adaptive monitoring a, pp.oach has great potentials for real-time industrial a, pp.ications, which vary frequently in their control environment.

A neutral particle beam(NPB) aimed at the object and receive a small number of neutron signals at the detector to estimate the mass of an object Since there is uncertainty about the location of the axis of the beam relative to the object, we could have aiming errors which may lead to incorrect information about the object. Under the two assumptions that neutral particle scattering distribution and aiming errors have a circular normal distribution respectively, we have derived an exact probability distribution of neutral particles. It becomes a Poison-power function distribution., We proved monotone likelihood ratio property of tlis distribution. This property can be used to find a criteria for the hypothesis testing problem.

We consider the sensitivity of average inventory cost rate when true values of the parameters In the EOQ model are unknown over known ranges. In particular, In the case that the valid range on the true economic lot size are known. we provide a formula for estimating the lot size under minimax criterion. Moreover, to estimate the valid range, we apply the propagation of errors technique. Then, we present a scheme to find a (valid) lot size. based on the estimated range of the true lot size from the propagation or errors technique.

This paper considers the problem of selecting the most profitable process mean for production processes where measurement errors exist in inspection systems. For such situations, a sequential inspection procedure is proposed to reduce measurement errors. The decision to accept, reject, or take an additional inspection of an item is made at every measurement point until the number of repeated measurements reaches its upper bound. An expected profit model is constructed and the optimal process mean, the cut-off values, and the upper bound of the number of repeated measurements are obtained when accepted(rejected) items are sold at regular(reduced) price. A numerical study is performed to investigate the performance of the proposed procedure.

Almost all companies have paid much attention to the safety management ranging from maintenance to operation even at the stage of designing in order to prevent accidents, but fatal accidents continue to increase throughout the world. In particular, it is essential to systematically prevent such fatal accidents as fire, explosion or leakage of toxic gas at factories in order to not only protect the workers and neighbors but also prevent economic losses and environmental pollution. In addition, HRA may be used to detect the human errors which may cause accidents or trace back to any mistake on the part of workers. Usually, HRA technique is used in association with other risk assessment techniques. Moreover, it can serve to enumerate the human errors which may occur during operation or down-time or correct the existing system to reduce the mistakes. This work focuses on the coincidence of human error and mechanical failure for management of human error, and on some important performance shaping factors to propose a method for improving safety effectively of the process industries.

We consider the linear calibration model: $y_1={\alpha}+{\beta}x_i+{\sigma}{\varepsilon}_i$, i = 1, ${\cdots}$, n, $y={\alpha}+{\beta}x+{\sigma}{\varepsilon}$ where ($y_1$, ${\cdots}$, $y_n$, y) stands for an observation vector, {$x_i$} fixed design vector, (${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$) vector of regression parameters, x unknown true value of interest and {${\varepsilon}_i$}, ${\varepsilon}$ are mutually uncorrelated measurement errors with zero mean and unit variance but otherwise unknown distributions. On the basis of simple small-sample low-noise approximation, we introduce a new method of comparing the mean squared errors of the various competing estimators of the true value x for finite sample size n. Then we show that a class of estimators including the classical and the inverse estimators are consistent and first-order efficient within the class of all regular consistent estimators irrespective of type of measurement errors.

The ratio which we usually use in producing products is nonconforming proportion or percent defective. As our modern society develops, we cannot but meet another proportion in legal, managerial, and medical areas where our human beings might commit various kinds of errors though they do not want them. In this paper we will generally call the ratio 'proportion.' When the size of such proportion as percent defective is observed by persons, it is not true proportion but apparent proportion because it has been observed with human or situational errors. Past studies have not systematically covered the analysis of relations between such proportions and type 1 and 2 error, but this paper analyses and derives such various relations, and it suggests the guideline as sixteen properties for utilization and sensitive analysis of the relations. Current paper's consideration of apparent proportion in addition to true proportion as our familiar concept will open and widen existing academic and application areas where people have mainly built societal, scientific and engineering rules and methods based only on true proportion.

Presses are very widely used in industrial and commercial companies and are often the source of serious accidents occurring during operation. In Korea, the press holds the first place in the industrial hazard machines for frequency of accidents. Most of the press accidents are due to the human error. Continuous recordings of eye and hand movements that included operating errors of five experienced subjects were made during the press operation. The results showed that significant differences were observed on eye fixation time, hand fixation time, and lead departure time between the operations that has errors and no errors. The result could be used as basic data to establish a guideline for preventing the accidents.

The present study contributes reviewing and suggesting various models for measurement system analysis (MSA). Measurement errors consist of accuracy, linearity, stability, part precision, repeatability and reproducibility (R&R). First, the major content presents split-plot design, and the combination method of crossed and nested design for obtaining gage R&R. Second, we propose $\bar{x}-s$ variable control chart for calculating the gage R&R and number of distinct category. Lastly, investigating the determination of gage performance curve which establishes the control specification propagating calibration uncertainties and measurement errors is described.
