Management of Control System Information SecurityI: Control System Patch Management

Quanyan Zhu; Miles McQueen; Craig Rieger; Tamer Basar · OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information) · 2016

The use of information technologies in control systems poses additional potential threats due to the frequent disclosure of software vulnerabilities. The management of information security involves a series of policy-making on the vulnerability discovery, disclosure, patch development and patching. In this paper, we use a system approach to devise a model to understand the interdependencies of these decision processes. In more details, we establish a theoretical framework for making patching decision for control systems, taking into account the requirement of functionability of control systems. We illustrate our results with numerical simulations and show that the optimal operation period of control systems given the currently estimated attack rate is roughly around a half a month.

hospital management control system

Saad Alami · Journal of Academic Finance · 2018

The great importance has been attached to the steering of hospital performance, by the WHO and the Moroccan Ministry of Health, so hospitals, and more specifically university hospitals, have opted for an effective mode of control and for a results-based management targeting performance while taking into account the social dimension and non-market activity of public hospitals. Our problem is: what are the contributions of the management control system for public hospitals? To understand this problem, we based ourselves on a study by interviews with hospital officials. Our findings and conclusions can be of use to researchers, managers, and decision-makers in setting up a management control system in hospital settings while fostering accountability for managers moving from resource-based management. results-based management.

Management control system description

Parditka Bence · OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information) · 1990

This Management Control System (MCS) description describes the processes used to manage the cost and schedule of work performed by Westinghouse Hanford Company (Westinghouse Hanford) for the US Department of Energy, Richland Operations Office (DOE-RL), Richland, Washington. Westinghouse Hanford will maintain and use formal cost and schedule management control systems, as presented in this document, in performing work for the DOE-RL. This MCS description is a controlled document and will be modified or updated as required. This document must be approved by the DOE-RL; thereafter, any significant change will require DOE-RL concurrence. Westinghouse Hanford is the DOE-RL operations and engineering contractor at the Hanford Site. Activities associated with this contract (DE-AC06-87RL10930) include operating existing plant facilities, managing defined projects and programs, and planning future enhancements. This document is designed to comply with Section I-13 of the contract by providing a description of Westinghouse Hanford's cost and schedule control systems used in managing the above activities. 5 refs., 22 figs., 1 tab.

Management control system effectiveness

Sophia Su, Kevin Baird, Herbert Schoch · RePEc: Research Papers in Economics

Purpose - – This study aims to examine the association between the use of three types of controls (input, behaviour and output) with the level of employee organisational commitment (EOC) across organisational life cycle (OLC) stages. Design/methodology/approach - – Data were collected by a survey questionnaire from a random sample of 343 general managers in Australian manufacturing business units. Findings - – The level of EOC was found to be highest in growth and revival stage units, suggesting that EOC relates to the level of innovation. The analysis revealed that the types of controls were significantly associated with the level of EOC. In particular, a significant positive association was found between input controls and the level of EOC in both the birth and revival stages. Originality/value - – This study contributes to both the management control system (MCS) literature and practice. First, because only a limited number of studies have examined the effect of MCSs on the level of EOC, and there is no published study to date which has examined the association between the types of controls with the level of EOC from an OLC perspective, this study fills a gap in the literature by examining these associations. Secondly, the findings have important implications for Australian manufacturing organisations. Specifically, by providing an insight into the association between the types of controls with the level of EOC across OLC stages, the results suggest that managers of organisations in the birth and revival stage need to place greater emphasis on input controls so as to enhance the level of EOC.

Project management control system

Appel, Sylvia; Skopek, Mark A. · 1995

This thesis project is a comprehensive solution for the planning, organizing, directing and controlling of the software development process. Project Management Control System (PMCS) is the title of the project. The PMCS consists of the following three integrated components. The first component of the PMCS is a software development methodology. The intent of the methodology is to provide rules, structures and activities that are fundamental to software development. The methodology is presented in the document titled the Appel Skopek-Evolutionary Software Development Methodology (AS-ESDM). The second component of the PMCS is a utility which tracks and relates necessary software documentation, such as, the transition from functional requirements to design components and from design components to unit specifications. The Integrated Project Workbook (IPWB) is the title of the software product. The third component of the PMCS is a project management software product. We selected this tool to assist in the controlling of tasks, costs and resources throughout the life cycle of a software project. The product selected is Microsoft Project.

Parking management and control system

Petre Anghelescu, Ioan Adrian Stefan · 2017

This paper describes a new solution for parking management and control that can be used along with the actual parking system. The proposed solution uses a Web Service as a data controller, a database for data storage and three client applications targeting a better user experience. Web Service's role is to process data received from clients and works as a link between clients and database. Also, Web Service role is to validate requested data and send a proper response to client according with validation result. Clients splits into Web Client (Web Application), Mobile Client (Android Application) and an Admin Client (Desktop Application). Web and Mobile clients are used by drivers to reserve, pay the parking ticket or to make a subscription. Admin Client is used by an admin to add new cities, new parking in system, edit actual data or just view actual data. All the algorithms and results obtained in this paper are developed and tested using the C# and JavaScript programming languages and SQL query language.

User Access Control Management System

KHAIRIL ISMADY BIN ISMAIL, KHAIRIL ISMADY · UTPedia (Universiti Teknologi Petronas) · 2007

Access control mechanisms are needed in almost every system nowadays to control what kind of access each user has to which resources and when. On the one hand access control systems need to be flexible to allow the definition of the access rules that are actually needed. But they must also be easy to administrate to prevent rules from being in place without the administrator realizing it. I present the implementation and architecture of a system that allows definition of access rights down to the single function and user level. I use hierarchies on users and groups, hierarchies on access rights and hierarchies on system page and function. These hierarchies allow a maximum of flexibility and still keep the system easy enough to administrate. User Access Control Management System supports positive as well as negative permissions.
