The Nexsys? Realtime Risk Management System for Advanced Decision Support

摘要

Mining has gained a reputation as a hazardous industry; in response to this the Nexsys?1 Realtime Risk Management System has been developed for decision support.rnThe prominent features of Nexsys? system are: a novel risk profiling matrix based on industry standards that provides decision support to control room operators, the ability of Nexsys? to analyse a large amount of disparate mine data in real time, a rule engine that triggers alarms and changes the risk profile matrix and the client-server architecture allowing clients to be located worldwide, including on any web-enabled device. A novel predictive data analysis function is currently under development.rnThe user interface enables a multitude of data views in 2-and 3-dimensions with displays catered to a client's requirements.rnThe Nexsys? system was successfully demonstrated at 3 mine sites in 2005-2006: the Grasstree and Beltana Coal Mines in Australia and the Kushiro Coal Mine in Japan.rnIf properly implemented, Nexsys? has the potential to assist the international mining community in improving safety performance as a hazard management support system.
