Models, methods and technologies to support the training of drivers involved in the transport of dangerous goods

摘要

The paper describes practical models, methods and software technologies as training supports on hazardous material transport by trucks. Specifically, the work developed by Eni and the Department of Communication Computer and System Sciences of Universita degli Studi di Genova concern an information system to train truck drivers. The information has been modeled in concepts forming an ontology on different aspects of the transport of dangerous goods, simplifying both the creation of courses, the profile of the training received by each driver, as well as the possibility to verify the effectiveness of the training. In fact, the information system has also a distributed component, allowing to verify the effective training of drivers directly on their palm top. The objective is to assure a continuous education widely distributed. The presentation illustrates the results of this work.
