Antimicrobial Resistance Collaborative Measures of Control

Antimicrobial Resistance Collaborative Measures of Control

Antimicrobial resistance has existed in nature long before the discovery of antibiotics. The mechanisms of resistance are prevalent among the bacterial population. Over a period of time and facilitated by indiscriminate usage of antibiotics these mechanisms are transferred from one type of bacteria to another including the pathogenic ones. In addition the rate of discovery of novel antimicrobials is much slower than the rate of evolution of antimicrobial resistance. Therefore there is a need for alternative strategies to control antimicrobial resistance to save lives. In this book the novel strategies to combat antimicrobial resistance are described emphasizing collaborative measures of control. We describe the concerted efforts undertaken by global communities to combat antimicrobial resistance in detail. The most efficient strategy could be a behavioral change towards indiscriminate consumption usage and prescription of antibiotics. | Antimicrobial Resistance Collaborative Measures of Control

Automobile Automation Distributed Cognition on the Road

Automobile Automation Distributed Cognition on the Road

Increasing levels of driving automation has changed the role of the driver from active operator to passive monitor. However Systems Design has been plagued by criticism for failing to acknowledge the new role of the driver within the system network. To understand the driver's new role within an automated driving system the theory of Distributed Cognition is adopted. This approach provides a useful framework for the investigation of allocation of function between multiple agents in the driving system. A Systems Design Framework has been developed that outlines how the Distributed Cognition paradigm can be applied to driving using both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies. | Automobile Automation Distributed Cognition on the Road
