How to break Murphy's Law

2011-12-22

Murphy's Law is a useful scapegoat for human error: "If something can go wrong, it will." But, a new study by researchers in Canada hopes to put paid to this unscientific excuse for errors by showing that the introduction of verification and checking procedures can improve structural safety and performance and so prevent the application of the "law". Engineer Franz Knoll of Nicolet Chartrand Knoll Ltd., based in Montreal, Quebec, writing in the International Journal of Reliability and Safety explains that faults and flaws in any industrial product almost always originate ...

Even limited telemedicine could improve developing health

2011-12-22

A lack of infrastructure in developing countries, and particularly in rural areas, often ensures that healthcare provision is absent.

As a result, some patients may be ...
