Implementation of Signaling Gateway between Telephone Network and the Internet

Tässä diplomityössä perehdytään verkkoelementiltä, joka yhdistää H.323, MEGACO- ja ISUP-protokollia käyttävät tietoliikenneverkot toisiinsa, vaadittaviin ominaisuuksiin ja toiminnallisuuksiin. Tyypillisesti tällaista toiminnallisuutta tarvitaan IP- ja PSTN-verkkojen yhdistämisessä. Tarkastelu aloitetaan kuvaamalla PSTN-verkon signalointi ja rakenne, jatketaan kuvaamalla internet-protokollia käyttävä verkkoympäristö ja lopuksi perehdytään verkkoelementiltä vaadittaviin toiminnallisuuksiin, jotta PSTN ja MEGACO-pohjaiset verkot toimivat yhteen. Työn käytännöllisenä osuutena kuvataan osa viestisekvenssikaavioista, joita verkkoelementti toteuttaa puuttumatta kuitenkaan eri protokollien toimintaan viestien parametrien tasolla.

Collecting Transaction Data in a Fourth Generation Mobile Network

Tässä diplomityössä on oletettu että neljännen sukupolven mobiiliverkko on saumaton yhdistelmä olemassa olevia toisen ja kolmannen sukupolven langattomia verkkoja sekä lyhyen kantaman WLAN- ja Bluetooth-radiotekniikoita. Näiden tekniikoiden on myös oletettu olevan niin yhteensopivia ettei käyttäjä havaitse saanti verkon muuttumista. Työ esittelee neljännen sukupolven mobiiliverkkoihin liittyvien tärkeimpien langattomien tekniikoiden arkkitehtuurin ja perustoiminta-periaatteet. Työ kuvaa eri tekniikoita ja käytäntöjä tiedon mittaamiseen ja keräämiseen. Saatuja transaktiomittauksia voidaan käyttää tarjottaessa erilaistettuja palvelutasoja sekä verkko- ja palvelukapasiteetin optimoimisessa. Lisäksi työssä esitellään Internet Business Information Manager joka on ohjelmistokehys hajautetun tiedon keräämiseen. Sen keräämää mittaustietoa voidaan käyttää palvelun tason seurannassa j a raportoinnissa sekä laskutuksessa. Työn käytännön osuudessa piti kehittää langattoman verkon liikennettä seuraava agentti joka tarkkailisi palvelun laatua. Agentti sijaitsisi matkapuhelimessa mitaten verkon liikennettä. Agenttia ei kuitenkaan voitu toteuttaa koska ohjelmistoympäristö todettiin vajaaksi. Joka tapauksessa työ osoitti että käyttäjän näkökulmasta tietoa kerääville agenteille on todellinen tarve.

Design and validation of stateful composite RESTful web services

A web service is a software system that provides a machine-processable interface to the other machines over the network using different Internet protocols. They are being increasingly used in the industry in order to automate different tasks and offer services to a wider audience. The REST architectural style aims at producing scalable and extensible web services using technologies that play well with the existing tools and infrastructure of the web. It provides a uniform set of operation that can be used to invoke a CRUD interface (create, retrieve, update and delete) of a web service. The stateless behavior of the service interface requires that every request to a resource is independent of the previous ones facilitating scalability. Automated systems, e.g., hotel reservation systems, provide advanced scenarios for stateful services that require a certain sequence of requests that must be followed in order to fulfill the service goals. Designing and developing such services for advanced scenarios with REST constraints require rigorous approaches that are capable of creating web services that can be trusted for their behavior. Systems that can be trusted for their behavior can be termed as dependable systems. This thesis presents an integrated design, analysis and validation approach that facilitates the service developer to create dependable and stateful REST web services. The main contribution of this thesis is that we provide a novel model-driven methodology to design behavioral REST web service interfaces and their compositions. The behavioral interfaces provide information on what methods can be invoked on a service and the pre- and post-conditions of these methods. The methodology uses Unified Modeling Language (UML), as the modeling language, which has a wide user base and has mature tools that are continuously evolving. We have used UML class diagram and UML state machine diagram with additional design constraints to provide resource and behavioral models, respectively, for designing REST web service interfaces. These service design models serve as a specification document and the information presented in them have manifold applications. The service design models also contain information about the time and domain requirements of the service that can help in requirement traceability which is an important part of our approach. Requirement traceability helps in capturing faults in the design models and other elements of software development environment by tracing back and forth the unfulfilled requirements of the service. The information about service actors is also included in the design models which is required for authenticating the service requests by authorized actors since not all types of users have access to all the resources. In addition, following our design approach, the service developer can ensure that the designed web service interfaces will be REST compliant. The second contribution of this thesis is consistency analysis of the behavioral REST interfaces. To overcome the inconsistency problem and design errors in our service models, we have used semantic technologies. The REST interfaces are represented in web ontology language, OWL2, that can be part of the semantic web. These interfaces are used with OWL 2 reasoners to check unsatisfiable concepts which result in implementations that fail. This work is fully automated thanks to the implemented translation tool and the existing OWL 2 reasoners. The third contribution of this thesis is the verification and validation of REST web services. We have used model checking techniques with UPPAAL model checker for this purpose. The timed automata of UML based service design models are generated with our transformation tool that are verified for their basic characteristics like deadlock freedom, liveness, reachability and safety. The implementation of a web service is tested using a black-box testing approach. Test cases are generated from the UPPAAL timed automata and using the online testing tool, UPPAAL TRON, the service implementation is validated at runtime against its specifications. Requirement traceability is also addressed in our validation approach with which we can see what service goals are met and trace back the unfulfilled service goals to detect the faults in the design models. A final contribution of the thesis is an implementation of behavioral REST interfaces and service monitors from the service design models. The partial code generation tool creates code skeletons of REST web services with method pre and post-conditions. The preconditions of methods constrain the user to invoke the stateful REST service under the right conditions and the post condition constraint the service developer to implement the right functionality. The details of the methods can be manually inserted by the developer as required. We do not target complete automation because we focus only on the interface aspects of the web service. The applicability of the approach is demonstrated with a pedagogical example of a hotel room booking service and a relatively complex worked example of holiday booking service taken from the industrial context. The former example presents a simple explanation of the approach and the later worked example shows how stateful and timed web services offering complex scenarios and involving other web services can be constructed using our approach.

Nurses’ Acceptance of an Internet-Based Support System in The Care of Adolescents with Depression

The overall goal of the study was to describe nurses’ acceptance of an Internet-based support system in the care of adolescents with depression. The data were collected in four phases during the period 2006 – 2010 from nurses working in adolescent psychiatric outpatient clinics and from professionals working with adolescents in basic public services. In the first phase, the nurses’ anticipated perceptions of the usefulness of the Internet-based support system before its implementation was explored. In the second phase, the nurses’ perceived ease of computer and Internet use and attitudes toward it were explored. In the third phase, the features of the support system and its implementation process were described. In the fourth phase, the nurses’ experiences of behavioural intention and actual system use of the Internet-based support were described in psychiatric out-patient care after one year use. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used to structure the various research phases. Several benefits were identified from the nurses’ perspective in using the Internet-based support system in the care of adolescents with depression. The nurses’ technology skills were good and their attitudes towards computer use were positive. The support system was developed in various phases to meet the adolescents’ needs. Before the implementation of the information technology (IT)-based support system, it is important to pay attention to the nurses’ IT-training, technology support, resources, and safety as well as ethical issues related to the support system. After one year of using the system, the nurses perceived the Internet-based support system to be useful in the care of adolescents with depression. The adolescents’ independent work with the support system at home and the program’s systematic character were experienced as conducive from the point of view of the treatment. However, the Internet-based support system was integrated only partly into the nurseadolescent interaction even though the nurses’ perceptions of it were positive. The use of the IT-based system as part of the adolescents’ depression care was seen positively and its benefits were recognized. This serves as a good basis for future IT-based techniques. Successful implementations of IT-based support systems need a systematic implementation plan and commitment from the part of the organization and its managers. Supporting and evaluating the implementation of an IT-based system should pay attention to changing the nurses’ work styles. Health care organizations should be offered more flexible opportunities to utilize IT-based systems in direct patient care in the future.

Electrical Safety of Island Operated Low Voltage DC Network

Today, renewable energy technologies and modern power electronics have made it feasible to implement low voltage direct current (LVDC) microgrids (MGs) ca-pable to island operation. Such LVDC networks are particularly useful in remote areas. However, there are still pending issues in island operated LVDC MGs like electrical safety and controlled operation, which should be addressed before wide-scale implementation. This thesis is focused on the overall protection of an island operated LVDC network concept, including protection against electrical shocks, mains equipment protection and protection of photovoltaic (PV) power sources and battery energy storage systems (BESSs). The topic is approached through ex-amination of the safety hazards and the appropriate methods to protect against them, comprising considerations for earthing system selection and realisation of the protection system.

Experimental thermal hydraulic studies on the enhancement of safety of LWRs

The safe use of nuclear power plants (NPPs) requires a deep understanding of the functioning of physical processes and systems involved. Studies on thermal hydraulics have been carried out in various separate effects and integral test facilities at Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT) either to ensure the functioning of safety systems of light water reactors (LWR) or to produce validation data for the computer codes used in safety analyses of NPPs. Several examples of safety studies on thermal hydraulics of the nuclear power plants are discussed. Studies are related to the physical phenomena existing in different processes in NPPs, such as rewetting of the fuel rods, emergency core cooling (ECC), natural circulation, small break loss-of-coolant accidents (SBLOCA), non-condensable gas release and transport, and passive safety systems. Studies on both VVER and advanced light water reactor (ALWR) systems are included. The set of cases include separate effects tests for understanding and modeling a single physical phenomenon, separate effects tests to study the behavior of a NPP component or a single system, and integral tests to study the behavior of the whole system. In the studies following steps can be found, not necessarily in the same study. Experimental studies as such have provided solutions to existing design problems. Experimental data have been created to validate a single model in a computer code. Validated models are used in various transient analyses of scaled facilities or NPPs. Integral test data are used to validate the computer codes as whole, to see how the implemented models work together in a code. In the final stage test results from the facilities are transferred to the NPP scale using computer codes. Some of the experiments have confirmed the expected behavior of the system or procedure to be studied; in some experiments there have been certain unexpected phenomena that have caused changes to the original design to avoid the recognized problems. This is the main motivation for experimental studies on thermal hydraulics of the NPP safety systems. Naturally the behavior of the new system designs have to be checked with experiments, but also the existing designs, if they are applied in the conditions that differ from what they were originally designed for. New procedures for existing reactors and new safety related systems have been developed for new nuclear power plant concepts. New experiments have been continuously needed.

Langattoman Internet-puhelupalvelun tarjoaminen

Langattomalla Internetpuhelupalvelulla tarkoitetaan Internet-puheluiden (Voice over Internet Protocol, VoIP) siirtoa langattoman tiedonsiirtoverkon ylitse. Tälläisia langattomia verkkoja voivat olla esimerkiksi langattomat lähiverkot, WiMAX-verkot tai 450 megahertsin (MHz) taajuusalueella toimivat tiedonsiirtoverkot. VoIP-yhteyden toiminta voidaan jakaa kolmeen eri toiminta-alueeseen: yhteydenmuodostusprotokollaan, äänen koodaukseen sekä siirtotiehen. Yhteydenmuodostusprotokollia ovat esimerkiksi SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) sekä H.323. Yhteydenmuodostusprotokollantehtävänä on muodostaa yhteys käyttäjien välille sekä sopia yhteydessäkäytettävistä ominaisuuksista. Äänen koodauksessa ääni pakataan paketteihin, joita lähetetään siirtotietä pitkin eri käyttäjien välillä. Normaalissa Internetpuheluyhteydessä siirtotienä käytetään langallisia siirtoteitä. Tässä työssä on keskitytty langattomiin siirtoteihin ja niidentuomiin haasteisiin, kuten yhteyden luotettavuuteen ja laatuun, yhteyskapasiteetin riittävyyteen sekä siirtymiseen saman verkon eri tukiasemien sekä eri verkkojen välillä. Työssä rakennettiin yksinkertainen, mutta toimiva langaton Internetpuhelujärjestelmä sekä verrattiin sen ominaisuuksia normaaliin Internetpuhelujärjestelmään. Järjestelmää koekäytettiin oikeassa toimintatilanteessa varsinaisen puhelinjärjestelmän rinnalla tavallisessa toimistoympäristössä. Testaustulosten ja käyttäjäkokemusten perusteella on periaatteessa mahdollista rakentaa yksinkertainen langaton Internetpuhelujärjestelmä ja käyttää sitä puhelupalveluiden tarjoamiseen. Palvelun tarjoaminen vaatii kuitenkin vielä tiettyjen viestintäviraston määräysten täyttämistä ennen tuotantokäyttöön ottamista.

Value added logistics in supply and demand chains. Smile. Part 1. eBusiness between global company and itslocal sme supplier network

VALOSADE (Value Added Logistics in Supply and Demand Chains) is the research project of Anita Lukka's VALORE (Value Added Logistics Research) research team inLappeenranta University of Technology. VALOSADE is included in ELO (Ebusiness logistics) technology program of Tekes (Finnish Technology Agency). SMILE (SME-sector, Internet applications and Logistical Efficiency) is one of four subprojects of VALOSADE. SMILE research focuses on case network that is composed of small and medium sized mechanical maintenance service providers and global wood processing customers. Basic principle of SMILE study is communication and ebusiness insupply and demand network. This first phase of research concentrates on creating backgrounds for SMILE study and for ebusiness solutions of maintenance case network. The focus is on general trends of ebusiness in supply chains and networksof different industries; total ebusiness system architecture of company networks; ebusiness strategy of company network; information value chain; different factors, which influence on ebusiness solution of company network; and the correlation between ebusiness and competitive advantage. Literature, interviews and benchmarking were used as research methods in this qualitative case study. Networks and end-to-end supply chains are the organizational structures, which can add value for end customer. Information is one of the key factors in these decentralized structures. Because of decentralization of business, information is produced and used in different companies and in different information systems. Information refinement services are needed to manage information flows in company networksbetween different systems. Furthermore, some new solutions like network information systems are utilised in optimising network performance and in standardizingnetwork common processes. Some cases have however indicated, that utilization of ebusiness in decentralized business model is not always a necessity, but value-add of ICT must be defined case-specifically. In the theory part of report, different ebusiness and architecture models are introduced. These models are compared to empirical case data in research results. The biggest difference between theory and empirical data is that models are mainly developed for large-scale companies - not for SMEs. This is due to that implemented network ebusiness solutions are mainly large company centered. Genuine SME network centred ebusiness models are quite rare, and the study in that area has been few in number. Business relationships between customer and their SME suppliers are nowadays concentrated more on collaborative tactical and strategic initiatives besides transaction based operational initiatives. However, ebusiness systems are further mainly based on exchange of operational transactional data. Collaborative ebusiness solutions are in planning or pilot phase in most case companies. Furthermore, many ebusiness solutions are nowadays between two participants, but network and end-to-end supply chain transparency and information systems are quite rare. Transaction volumes, data formats, the types of exchanged information, information criticality,type and duration of business relationship, internal information systems of partners, processes and operation models (e.g. different ordering models) differ among network companies, and furthermore companies are at different stages on networking and ebusiness readiness. Because of former factors, different customer-supplier combinations in network must utilise totally different ebusiness architectures, technologies, systems and standards.

MANAGING STRATEGIC CHANGE:New Business Models Applying Wireless Technology as a Source of Competitive Edge

The diffusion of mobile telephony began in 1971 in Finland, when the first car phones, called ARP1 were taken to use. Technologies changed from ARP to NMT and later to GSM. The main application of the technology, however, was voice transfer. The birth of the Internet created an open public data network and easy access to other types of computer-based services over networks. Telephones had been used as modems, but the development of the cellular technologies enabled automatic access from mobile phones to Internet. Also other wireless technologies, for instance Wireless LANs, were also introduced. Telephony had developed from analog to digital in fixed networks and allowed easy integration of fixed and mobile networks. This development opened a completely new functionality to computers and mobile phones. It also initiated the merger of the information technology (IT) and telecommunication (TC) industries. Despite the arising opportunity for firms' new competition the applications based on the new functionality were rare. Furthermore, technology development combined with innovation can be disruptive to industries. This research focuses on the new technology's impact on competition in the ICT industry through understanding the strategic needs and alternative futures of the industry's customers. The change speed inthe ICT industry is high and therefore it was valuable to integrate the DynamicCapability view of the firm in this research. Dynamic capabilities are an application of the Resource-Based View (RBV) of the firm. As is stated in the literature, strategic positioning complements RBV. This theoretical framework leads theresearch to focus on three areas: customer strategic innovation and business model development, external future analysis, and process development combining these two. The theoretical contribution of the research is in the development of methodology integrating theories of the RBV, dynamic capabilities and strategic positioning. The research approach has been constructive due to the actual managerial problems initiating the study. The requirement for iterative and innovative progress in the research supported the chosen research approach. The study applies known methods in product development, for instance, innovation process in theGroup Decision Support Systems (GDSS) laboratory and Quality Function Deployment (QFD), and combines them with known strategy analysis tools like industry analysis and scenario method. As the main result, the thesis presents the strategic innovation process, where new business concepts are used to describe the alternative resource configurations and scenarios as alternative competitive environments, which can be a new way for firms to achieve competitive advantage in high-velocity markets. In addition to the strategic innovation process as a result, thestudy has also resulted in approximately 250 new innovations for the participating firms, reduced technology uncertainty and helped strategic infrastructural decisions in the firms, and produced a knowledge-bank including data from 43 ICT and 19 paper industry firms between the years 1999 - 2004. The methods presentedin this research are also applicable to other industries.

Keraamisten laattojen luokittelu väripiirteiden avulla

Vaikka keraamisten laattojen valmistusprosessi onkin täysin automatisoitu, viimeinen vaihe eli laaduntarkistus ja luokittelu tehdään yleensä ihmisvoimin. Automaattinen laaduntarkastus laattojen valmistuksessa voidaan perustella taloudellisuus- ja turvallisuusnäkökohtien avulla. Tämän työn tarkoituksena on kuvata tutkimusprojektia keraamisten laattojen luokittelusta erilaisten väripiirteiden avulla. Oleellisena osana tutkittiin RGB- ja spektrikuvien välistä eroa. Työn teoreettinen osuus käy läpi aiemmin aiheesta tehdyn tutkimuksen sekä antaa taustatietoa konenäöstä, hahmontunnistuksesta, luokittelijoista sekä väriteoriasta. Käytännön osan aineistona oli 25 keraamista laattaa, jotka olivat viidestä eri luokasta. Luokittelussa käytettiin apuna k:n lähimmän naapurin (k-NN) luokittelijaa sekä itseorganisoituvaa karttaa (SOM). Saatuja tuloksia verrattiin myös ihmisten tekemään luokitteluun. Neuraalilaskenta huomattiin tärkeäksi työkaluksi spektrianalyysissä. SOM:n ja spektraalisten piirteiden avulla saadut tulokset olivat lupaavia ja ainoastaan kromatisoidut RGB-piirteet olivat luokittelussa parempia kuin nämä.

The Design and Implementation of Loudspeaker Control Network Protocols

The networking and digitalization of audio equipment has created a need for control protocols. These protocols offer new services to customers and ensure that the equipment operates correctly. The control protocols used in the computer networks are not directly applicable since embedded systems have resource and cost limitations. In this master's thesis the design and implementation of new loudspeaker control network protocols are presented. The protocol stack was required to be reliable, have short response times, configure the network automatically and support the dynamic addition and removal of loudspeakers. The implemented protocol stack was also required to be as efficient and lightweight as possible because the network nodes are fairly simple and lack processing power. The protocol stack was thoroughly tested, validated and verified. The protocols were formally described using LOTOS (Language of Temporal Ordering Specifications) and verified using reachability analysis. A prototype of the loudspeaker network was built and used for testing the operation and the performance of the control protocols. The implemented control protocol stack met the design specifications and proved to be highly reliable and efficient.

The Architecture of a Fourth Generation Mobile Network

Neljännen sukupolven mobiiliverkot yhdistävät saumattomasti televerkot, Internetin ja niiden palvelut. Alkuperin Internetiä käytettiin vain paikallaan pysyviltä tietokoneilta perinteisten televerkkojen tarjotessa puhelin- ja datapalveluita. Neljännen sukupolven mobiiliverkkojen käyttäjät voivat käyttää sekä Internetiin perustuvia että perinteisten televerkkojen palveluita liikkuessaankin. Tämä diplomityö esittelee neljännen sukupolven mobiiliverkon yleisen arkkitehtuurin. Arkkitehtuurin perusosat kuvaillaan ja arkkitehtuuria verrataan toisen ja kolmannen sukupolven mobiiliverkkoihin. Aiheeseen liittyvät Internet-standardit esitellään ja niiden soveltuvuutta mobiiliverkkoihin pohditaan. Langattomia, lyhyen kantaman nopeita liitäntäverkkotekniikoita esitellään. Neljännen sukupolven mobiiliverkoissa tarvittavia päätelaitteiden ja käyttäjien liikkuvuuden hallintamenetelmiä esitellään. Esitelty arkkitehtuuri perustuu langattomiin, lyhyen kantaman nopeisiin liitäntäverkkotekniikoihin ja Internet-standardeihin. Arkkitehtuuri mahdollistaa yhteydet toisiin käyttäjiin ilman tietoa heidän senhetkisestä päätelaitteesta tai sijainnista. Internetin palveluitavoidaan käyttää missä tahansa neljännen sukupolven mobiiliverkon alueella. Yleiskäytöistä liikkuvuuden hallintamenetelmää yhden verkon alueelle ehdotetaan. Menetelmää voidaan käyttää yhdessä esitellyn arkkitehtuurin kanssa.

Internet-palveluntarjoajan tietoturva

Internet on levinnyt viime vuosina voimakkaasti ja samalla sen tietoturvallisuus on noussut erittäin tärkeäksi tekijäksi. Olen tietoturvallisuuteen liittyvien työtehtävieni ohessa kirjoittanut keräämääni teoriatietoa ja tekemiäni toimenpiteitä diplomityön muotoon. Diplomityön tavoitteena on antaa yleiskuva internet-palveluntarjoajan tietoturvallisuudesta ja sen hallinnasta. Työssä käsitellään tietoturvallisuuskäsitettä, hallinnollista ja teknistä tietoturvallisuutta sekä tietoturvallisuuden taloudellisia vaikutuksia. Tietoturvallisuus on yrityksen henkilökunnan ja teknisten ratkaisujen yhteistoimintaa yrityksen tietojen turvaamiseksi sekä yrityksen sisäisten että yrityksen ulkopuolisten uhkien varalta. Tietoturvallisuus on niin vahva kuin sen heikoin lenkki, joten tietoturvallisuuden huolehtimiseen tarvitaan koko yrityksen henkilöstön panosta. Työn tavoitteena on parantaa kohdeyrityksen tietoturvallisuutta ja tuoda esiin ne heikot kohdat, joiden parantamiseen täytyy saada yrityksen johdolta lisää resursseja. Aukotonta turvallisuutta ei kannata tavoitella, vaan yrityksen tulee pyrkiä minimoimaan tietoturvallisuuden kokonaiskustannukset.

Practical Solutions for Increased Safety in Paper Mill Operations

Tämä diplomityö käsittelee työterveys- ja työturvallisuushallinnan (TTT) sekä ympäristönsuojelun ongelmia ja riskejä, joita tehdasalueen toiminnanharjoittaja kohtaa ulkoistaessaan tehdastoimintojaan ja siirtyessään käyttämään 24 h ulkoisia kunnossapitopalveluja. Teoriaosa selventää ulkoistukseen liittyviä lainmukaisia määräyksiä ja vaatimuksia koskien terveyden, turvallisuuden ja ympäristöongelmien hallintaa sellu-, paperi- ja kartonkitehtaissa Euroopassa, Yhdysvalloissa ja Suomessa. TTT-toiminnan tason sekä ympäristönsuojelun tason mittaamisen ongelmat tuodaan esille. Olemassa olevia kansainvälisiä TTT-johtamisjärjestelmien ja ympäristöjärjestelmien standardeja, riskien hallintatyökaluja ja ohjelmia esitellään lyhyesti. Käytännön osa toteutettiin tapaustutkimuksena, jonka kohteena oli Äänekosken tehdaskombinaatti ja kemianteollisuuden laitos, Noviant CMC Oy. TTT-hallintatoimien ja ympäristönsuojelun ongelmia tutkitaan tehdastoimintoja ulkoistettaessa. Integroidun johtamisjärjestelmän auditointimenettelyt, ulkoistuksen kohdealueet, pk-yrityksien riskien hallinta ja ulkoisten työntekijöiden turvallisuuskoulutus ovat erityisen tarkastelun alla. Käyttäen hyväksi kerättyä TTT- ja ympäristöaineistoa, suunniteltiin malli ja sisältöehdotus uudelle internet-selain tyyppiselle työkalulle TTT- ja ympäristöasioiden hallinnan avuksi. Työkalu on tarkoitettu palvelemaan Noviant CMC Oy:n eri sidosryhmien tarpeita. Diplomityön käytännön osa muodostaa pohjan JP MILLSAFE - pilottiprojektille, joka käynnistettiin internet-selain tyyppisen turvallisuuspalvelusovelluksen kehittämiseksi palvelemaan Äänekosken tehdaskombinaatin eri sidosryhmien tarpeita.
