This paper discusses the European regulation on artificial intelligence systems, the AI Act. This regulation addresses the principles of good management of an artificial intelligence system using a risk-based approach and provides related compliance and control procedures. The article provides a series of use cases and feedback to facilitate the understanding and integration of the AI Act within organizations.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are currently the dominant technology for energy storage (electric vehicles, stationary storage systems (BESS), household applications). However, their high energy density and the presence of flammable electrolytes generate specific risks, mainly related to the thermal runaway (TR) phenomenon. This review examines the mechanisms of TR initiation and propagation, the thermal and chemical characteristics of fires involving LIBs, the challenges associated with early detection, and recommendations for system design. Test methods and research priorities are also discussed.
ISO 37008 (2023): Internal Investigation of Organizations Standard specifies the possible methodologies and approaches for internal investigations in organizations. Indeed, regardless of the sectors and processes concerned, having a structured approach to internal investigation cases is necessary. These cases can occur negative news and methodological approaches are then essential to secure organizations but also to enable effective management of internal investigations. The article addresses the situations concerned, the methods and rigorous processes that require internal investigation to avoid creating risky situations by trying to manage abuse, fraud, corruption, and breaches of security rules.
Dashboards are one of the key elements in managing an organization. Knowing how to define, implement, and monitor a risk management dashboard is also a key issue in risk governance. The purpose of this article is to detail the key principles leading to the development of a risk management dashboard, and to illustrate, through numerous examples, what these dashboards can be and their uses. The article also details generic as well as specific areas of risk management dashboards.
This article describes the theoretical foundations of quantifying software reliability and explains its methods of use. It explains the process which is at the origin of the occurrence of failures and the way in which mathematicians have proposed to model it. It also explains how contractors could implement software reliability requirements to achieve better operational quality of the IT component of their systems. Finally, it reviews current industrial practices in the field.
This article is simultaneously interested in the growing vulnerability of France to climate disasters and its origins, both historical and political. To do this, it first establishes a state of risks in France based on the recording of damages and questions their evolution over recent decades. Far from being unpredictable, these extreme climatic events, qualified as disasters when they affect societies, in fact reflect a denial of memory on the part of decision-makers and planners, as evidenced by several dramatic events presented in this article. Taking note of these lessons learned that are too often neglected or despised, the article recommends a certain number of common sense measures based on experience, observation and anticipation.
Connected Glasses are augmented reality devices that enable hands-free remote communication. This technology, which is still emerging in the workplace, raises questions about the risk of accidents when employees are walking while wearing connected glasses. An experimental study was carried out to analyse gait parameters. Significant disruptions to walking were observed under different conditions of use of several connected glasses’ models. These results lead us to issue a number of warnings to ensure user safety and are the focus of this article.
The fire behaviour of electrical cables is crucial for the safety of modern infrastructures. The article addresses the issue of rapid flame propagation and toxic smoke emission from cables in the event of fire. It first presents the phenomenology of cable fires, then analyses European classification systems and their test methods to assess reaction and resistance to fire. Finally, it discusses specific applications by domain, highlighting the importance of protection solutions to reduce risks.
Fraud risk management is organized around actions to prevent, detect and respond to this risk. The aim of this article is to detail how the actions of the anti-fraud cells have expanded in terms of tools in recent years, notably by using artificial intelligence. The article explains the contribution of these technologies, their limitations and their anticipated evolution and illustrates this concept around recent use cases.
