A Web-service architectural perspective on Risk Management in work environments

摘要

This paper provides a Web-service based software architectural perspective on the design of systems able to identify; and solve risky situations that may occur in work environments. The technological and computational advances in the IT world (e.g., service-oriented, wearable services) may provide a significant support for the management of risks, and implicitly the reduction of the accidents in the work environment. This paper discusses how a Web-service architecture can be implemented for a Risk Management System. In this context, the Web-based technologies and solutions are fundamental for the access of critical information, communication of the main decisions, and contact of the actors of the system from anywhere and from any type of device.
