  2. Hierarchy of hazard controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_of_hazard_controls

    Administrative controls do not remove hazards, but limit or prevent people's exposure to the hazards, such as completing road construction at night when fewer people are driving. [5] Administrative controls are ranked lower than elimination, substitution, and engineering controls because they do not directly remove or reduce workplace hazards.

  3. Control (management) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_(management)

    The primary requirement of a control system is that it maintains the level and kind of output necessary to achieve the system's objectives. [5] It is usually impractical to control every feature and condition associated with the system's output. Therefore, the choice of the controlled item (and appropriate information about it) is extremely ...

  4. Engineering controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_controls

    Engineering controls is the third of five members of the hierarchy of hazard controls, which orders control strategies by their feasibility and effectiveness. Engineering controls are preferred over administrative controls and personal protective equipment (PPE) because they are designed to remove the hazard at the source, before it comes in ...

    Top level Configuration Management Activity model. Configuration management (CM) is a management process for establishing and maintaining consistency of a product's performance, functional, and physical attributes with its requirements, design, and operational information throughout its life.

  6. System and Organization Controls - Wikipedia

    SOC 2 reports focus on controls addressed by five semi-overlapping categories called Trust Service Criteria which also support the CIA triad of information security: [1] Security - information and systems are protected against unauthorized access and disclosure, and damage to the system that could compromise the availability, confidentiality ...

  7. Control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_system

    The control action is the switching on/off of the boiler, but the controlled variable should be the building temperature, but is not because this is open-loop control of the boiler, which does not give closed-loop control of the temperature. In closed loop control, the control action from the controller is dependent on the process output.

  8. Risk control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_control

    Risk control logically follows after hazard identification and risk assessment. [3] The most effective method for controlling a risk is to eliminate the hazard, but this is not always reasonably practicable. There is a recognised hierarchy of hazard controls which is listed in a generally descending order of effectiveness and preference: [3]

  9. Control engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_engineering

    Control systems play a critical role in space flight.. Control engineering, also known as control systems engineering and, in some European countries, automation engineering, is an engineering discipline that deals with control systems, applying control theory to design equipment and systems with desired behaviors in control environments.
