Information brokerage is a range of intermediary services between consumers and information sources. In this scenario, automated online businesses emerge and continually re-assess their market and self-organise to fulfil their optimal business development. This process is likely to involve increasingly active intelligent elements in the global net. The global interactions of large masses of information may bring about some interesting consequences. - Author(s): C.R. Dicken

Recent years have seen many process plants replace hard desk operator interfaces with modern computer based VDU interfaces. Alarm systems have similarly undergone a transformation in their user interface. The article describes some of the developments within the UK coal-fired generating industry in moving to the new technology, with specific reference to alarm display philosophy. - Author(s): I.

Systems development has moved from treating systems as purely technical problems, towards seeing systems as parts of the users' environment. Stakeholders such as operators are increasingly involved in requirements engineering in particular. Requirements engineering is balanced between cooperating with the stakeholders who own the requirements, and the need for a controlled process of development. The dilemma is that control and predefined methods tend to exclude co-operation. The article assesses progress towards the possibly unreachable goal of fully co-operative requirements engineering. Some leading methods are compared. The potential for co-operative inquiry to resolve the dilemma of co-operating manageably is discussed. - Author(s): S.H. Pulko ; A.I. Hurst ; H.R. Newton ; J.M.

Ceramic firing is an irreversible process. Cracking and excessive deformation reduce the yield which, at this stage of manufacture, is particularly undesirable both economically and environmentally, since firing is a very high energy process. A model has been developed to predict the temperature fields within ceramic pieces during firing and to simulate the associated ceramic deformation. - Source: Computing & Control Engineering Journal, Volume 10, Issue 1, page: 28 –28

Information overload is becoming the plague of many modern businesses. In contrast to increased managerial efficiency, evidence suggests that this glut of information is delaying decisions, causing confusion, exhaustion and errors. The article outlines a different approach to information management enabled by Web technologies. It describes how information pull reduces management overheads and how BT has benefited by adopting this approach. - Author(s): M.R. Whittington and M. Shackleton

As real time control engineering requirements become ever more demanding, and as post emergent technologies become a manufacturing possibility, the engineer is forced to seek new methods of analysis and design to maintain the efficiency and quality of the real time software development process. The article discusses how techniques originating in the field of information modelling are being successfully developed for the design and verification of flight safety critical software systems. - Source: Computing & Control Engineering Journal, Volume 10, Issue 1, page: 40 –40
