Improvement of Industrial Maintenance Plans through Assistance-Driven Reliability-Centered Maintenance and Case-Based Reasoning Design by Néstor Rodríguez-Padial, Marta M. Marín, Rosario Domingo

“…The developed assisted system focuses on collecting and taking advantage of historical knowledge of industrial plant failures and breakdowns. By ideally integrating the reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) methodology and case-based reasoning (CBR) algorithms implemented in a Java application, it is possible to design maintenance plans that are adjusted to the real and changing operational context of any industrial plant. …”

COMMENTARY: LEARNER-BASED LISTENING AND TECHNOLOGICAL AUTHENTICITY by Richard Robin

“…Effective users of raw electronic resources, such as easily repeatable video clips, captions, and even translation bots will bring a wider variety of input at the proper level for a broader range of learning styles than could possibly be made available in any pre-packaged closed-track program.In listening comprehension, attention over the last twenty-five years has turned from adapted scripts to authentic audio and video in which we scaffold "real media" with remediated tasks (pre- and post-script activities) instead of changing the media itself. …”
