Alarm Management - Silence is Golden

该项目开发了新的策略和工具，通过从庞大的复杂过程数据集中提取相关报警标签分组，帮助所有类型的工艺工厂（例如天然气、石化、采矿）实现报警合理化。这些分组用于重新调整警报系统，从而克服与过度警报相关的常见问题，这可能导致像维多利亚朗福德悲剧这样的事件。该方法具有成本效益，改善了报警管理。它解决了过程工业的经济和安全问题，以及由澳大利亚工程师学会委托进行的研究中提出的问题。

This project develops novel strategies and tools that aid alarm rationalisation in all types of process plants (e.g. gas, petrochemical, mining) by extracting groupings of related alarm tags from an enormous dataset of complex process data. These groupings are used in re-aligning the alarm systems, thus overcoming problems associated with the common practice of over-alarming, which may contribute to incidents like the Longford tragedy in Victoria. The approach is cost effective and improves alarm management. It addresses economic and safety concerns of the process industry as well as concerns raised in the study commissioned by the Institute of Engineers, Australia.
