E1.31, often called sACN, provides a very simple protocol that offers functionality comparable to proprietary DMX512 over Ethernet protocols while being compatible with the ANSI E1.17 suite of protocols. The standard is being revised, limited to the addition of IPv6 compatibility and the correction of errors. Input on additional features is not being sought at this time. Comments are due 2 October. ANSI Approves Reaffirmation of E1.32 On September 15, ANSI's Board of Standards Review approved the reaffirmation of ANSI E1.32, Guide for the Inspection of Entertainment Industry Incandescent Lamp Luminaires. The standard is now available on the ESTA website at http://esta.tsp.org/freestandards for download at no cost, thanks to the sponsorship of Prosight Specialty Insurance. The standard also is available for purchase from the ANSI eStandards Store and the IHS Markit Standards Store for $15. Volume 21, Number 18 Page 1 ANSI E1.32 provides guidance in the inspection of stage and studio luminaires used in the entertainment industry to evaluate their safety and any needed maintenance. The information contained in the document is intended to supplement the information contained in manufacturers’ maintenance instructions. ICC cdpACCESS Opens for Group A Code Cycle The International Code Council's cloud-based system for the code development process—cdpACCESS—is scheduled to open on 2 October for the 2018/2019 Group A code change cycle. The Group A cycle will include egress, fire safety and general provisions of the International Building Code; mechanical and plumbing provisions of the International Residential Code; and code changes to the International Fire, Fuel Gas, Mechanical, Plumbing, Property Maintenance, Private Sewage and Disposal, Swimming Pool and Spa, Wildland Urban-Interface, and Zoning Codes. cdpACCESS can be accessed after registering at https://cdpaccess.com/login. SMPTE Approves ST 2110 for Media Over Managed IP Networks The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers has announced the approval of the first standards within SMPTE ST 2110, Professional Media Over Managed IP Networks, a new standards suite that specifies the carriage, synchronization, and description of separate elementary essence streams over IP networks in real-time for the purposes of live production, playout, and other professional media applications. More information about SMPTE ST 2110 standards is available at www.smpte.org/st-2110.

  • Mikko Soukka Area Layout Data Handling Solution for Container Terminals
    MIKKO SOUKKA AREA LAYOUT DATA HANDLING SOLUTION FOR CONTAINER TERMINALS Master of Science thesis Examiner: prof. Hannu Koivisto Examiner and topic approved by the Faculty of Engineering Sciences Council Meeting on 16th December 2015 i ABSTRACT MIKKO SOUKKA: Area Layout Data Handling Solution for Container Terminals Tampere University of technology Master of Science Thesis, 54 pages, 8 Appendix pages December 2015 Master’s Degree Programme in Automation Technology Major: Information Systems in Automation Examiner: Professor Hannu Koivisto Keywords: map visualization, information system, layout modeling This thesis studies on different solutions available on representing locational information in container terminals. Focus is given to creation of this data by using available design models of the container terminal. Main addressed issue was presented in Cargotec Finland Oy, under Kalmar brand. In Kalmar, several different solutions have been used to create this location data to represent the terminal. Different implementations of graphical user interface have been made by separate branches of the company, and each implementation utilizes differently structured data to represent the container terminal. Similarly, different control solutions of the terminal equipment require locational information, which is also separately defined on each use case. This thesis looks into current solutions and provides a new method utilizing a more uniform solution and increasing the level of automation of the process. The thesis is structured as a division of three parts. Firstly, the problem and container terminal are discussed in general level. This defines the background of the problem as well as variables to be taken into account. Secondly, current solutions from both Kalmar and other companies are described, and possible alternatives to these are also discussed.

  • Standards for AI Governance: International Standards to Enable Global Coordination in AI Research & Development
    TECHNICAL REPORT Standards for AI Governance: International Standards to Enable Global Coordination in AI Research & Development 1 Peter Cihon Research Affiliate, Center for the Governance of AI Future of Humanity Institute, University of Oxford [email protected] April 2019 1 For helpful comments on earlier versions of this paper, thank you to Jade Leung, Jeffrey Ding, Ben Garfinkel, Allan Dafoe, Matthijs Maas, Remco Zwetsloot, David Hagebölling, Ryan Carey, Baobao Zhang, Cullen O’Keefe, Sophie-Charlotte Fischer, and Toby Shevlane. Thank you especially to Markus Anderljung, who helped make my ideas flow on the page. This work was funded by the Berkeley Existential Risk Initiative. All errors are mine alone. Executive Summary Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents novel policy challenges that require coordinated global responses.2 Standards, particularly those developed by existing international standards bodies, can support the global governance of AI development. International standards bodies have a track record of governing a range of socio-technical issues: they have spread cybersecurity practices to nearly 160 countries, they have seen firms around the world incur significant costs in order to improve their environmental sustainability, and they have developed safety standards used in numerous industries including autonomous vehicles and nuclear energy. These bodies have the institutional capacity to achieve expert consensus and then promulgate standards across the world. Other existing institutions can then enforce these nominally voluntary standards through both ​de facto​ and ​de jure​ methods. AI standards work is ongoing at ISO and IEEE, two leading standards bodies. But these ongoing standards efforts primarily focus on standards to improve market efficiency and address ethical concerns, respectively.
