As a typical response to regulatory or commercial requirements, traceability has become a vector for improving performance in a digital transformation context. The new Industry 4.0 technologies are based on leveraging data collected and historized by industrial traceability.Will the 2020 health crisis stop or accelerate this transformation? How to monitor operations or assist shifts in home-working ? Does the digital twin allow to operate the factory in "automatic" or remotely operated mode.9 recommendations are described in this paper to help the companies rethinking the plant of tomorrow, secured, efficient and responsible.
At a time of new societal and environmental challenges, regulations are multiplying and forcing the hand of companies of all sizes: traceability is no longer optional. It is necessary to collect and process an increasing amount of data, often coming from external sources that are not always reliable. From a system of declared allegations, we are progressing towards the need to prove the origin and quality of data. Known for its characteristics of transparency, decentralization and immutability, blockchain seems to be ideally suited to the theme of traceability. However Its usage constraints should be known, which until now have slowed down its adoption.
Generative artificial intelligence is a special case of artificial intelliegnce (for short AI) which aims at producing text, image, video or music from a short description (a prompt). The basic models underlying such systems are deep neural nets. The learning process of deep neural nets necessitate huge amount of training data of different types, according to the type of desired output. The performance reached (such as texts for ChatGPT) are of very high level.
In the legal field, traceability and individual freedoms are often regarded as enemies. Leaving and/or keeping traces, especially in the digital world, is considered detrimental to or even destructive of individual freedoms. Yet, traceability is more of a friend than a foe: traceability of medicines is primarily intended to recall a defective batch, CCTVS are notably used to ensure public security, food traceability is designed to guarantee healthy products to customers. Still, more often than not, traceability and individual freedoms do not always mix well and a fair balance should be struck between two legitimate needs: the need to meet traceability requirements and the need to guarantee the respect for individual freedoms.
Digitalizing Logistics – IT & Automation are revolutionizing logistics.Information Technology and Automation are revolutionizing the way organizations fulfill demand Today’s information systems provide visibility and oversight of logistics operations so effectively that one can easily imagine your logistics operations running all by themselves.Smart sensors feed increasingly intelligent and sophisticated systems, that can even learn through artificial intelligence. These systems in turn communicate smoothly and securely between trading partners, which makes many of the control tasks redundant.One could almost imagine a world where everything was done by computers and robots.This article will show you how these systems can drive your logistics operations.
HACCP and traceability have now become two of the food industry's must-have tools. It was therefore important to present them together in this dossier dedicated to traceability, as they clearly complement each other in food safety management. The aim of this dossier is therefore to highlight these complementarities, while recalling the specific features and particular objectives of each of the two systems. This text is divided into three main parts, each of which presents : European regulations on traceability and HACCP for agri-food businesses; the specifics of an HACCP system: its principles, motivations and main stages of application; the relationship between the HACCP system and the traceability system (example of a central kitchen in a mass catering operation).
The boom in information systems, which have become indispensable today, is draining lot of constraints, vulnerabilities, performance obligations, development, change ...Faced with these challenges, recourse to IT audit is becoming more and more relevant, necessary, and even essential.Whether initiated or undergone, everyone will certainly experience at least once an audit, whatever it is.The purpose of this article is to present what an IT audit is, its purpose process, report and conclusions.Not being able to be exhaustive in the context of an article, it presents the essentials allowing the reader to rely on a solid basis to lead, or support him in this kind of mission.
The monitoring program concerning the state of waters, such as required by the framework directive on water (2000/60/EC), includes the assessment of the chemical state of surface and underground waters. This assessment requires the carrying out of measurements of chemical substances characteristic of anthropic risks. However, in practice, the concept of traceability is not always adaptable to the large gamut of measurements used in order to carry out this monitoring process. Furthermore, it also appears that the fundamental principles of metrology are sometimes lacking in laboratories.
The fundamental purpose of the operating systems (OS) is to provide application services enabling the transparency of resource sharing and access to material. A large number of equipment buries circuits containing one or more processors and specialized coprocessors. These circuits are highly constrained in terms of surface and computing power, and for which the tasks to be performed being at least partially known in advance, require the use of an operating system, even minimalist. Thus, to treat a continuous stream of data or run programs, the OS can be specialized, simplifying the code and maximizing the performance.
Industrial environmental law addresses activities with a potential impact on natural environments, health and safety. It emerged in the 19th century with the industrial revolution, but was mainly structured from the 1970s onwards after several major accidents led to an evolving perception of the environment as a resource to be protected rather than just consumed. Since the beginning of the 21st century, it has been marked by such a significant increase in the volume of applicable rules and their growing technicality that the legislator’s efforts are now oriented towards simplification. These developments remain protection-driven, implying higher responsibilities for operators and requiring greater vigilance from all stakeholders, whether public or private.
