Current statistics suggest that preventable medical error is a common cause of patient morbidity and mortality, being responsible for between 44,000 and 98,000 deaths annually, and resulting in injuries that cost between $17 billion and $29 billion annually. An important approach to tackling this problem is to apply system design principles from human factors engineering (ergonomics). By doing so, systems and equipment become easier for people to work with, ultimately reducing the frequency of errors. In particular, in the case of medical equipment, the design of the user interface can impact enormously on its successful use. In this chapter we consider some of the elements of good and bad medical equipment design, using examples drawn from the literature and elsewhere. The concept of ecological interface design is also discussed, and some practical design guidelines are provided.

SummaryThe VII California project has developed a testbed of infrastructure-connected wireless access points on urban arterials and expressways. This paper discusses the use of the testbed for research and development of technologies and applications related to vehicle-infrastructure integration. The focus of this paper is on protocol design, connectivity to traffic signal state, external information sources, and system management. Experience gathered from the testbed will contribute to future field-test deployments, application design, scalability predictions, and input to broader system design and standardization efforts.

The Purpose of this research to evaluate and design guidelines implementation internal goverment control system in State Polytechnic of Malang. Kind of this research was descriptive using qualitative apporoach and the data that were used in this study were primer data colleted from interview result with internal audit unit at State Polytechnic of Malang. The result of this research indicate State Polytechnic of Malang don’t have guidelines implementation internal goverment control system. Researcher recommended guidelines implementation internal goverment control system design at State Polytechnic of Malang for fulfill indicators: infrastructure needed to build, the implementation, and the legal basis. Advice for directure of State Polyechnic of Malang immediately communicate to all academic community so they can understand about guidelines implementation internal goverment control system.
