Probabilistic Accuracy Bounds @ Papers We Love SFAysylu Greenberg
Aysylu Greenberg presents the Probabilistic Accuracy Bounds for Fault-Tolerant Computations that Discard Tasks paper (http://people.csail.mit.edu/rinard/paper/ics06.pdf )
Aysylu tells us "As our systems get more complex and expensive to operate, tradeoffs between accuracy and performance gains become more relevant. The paper demonstrates a new approach to analyzing programs where we can train statistical models to bound the error as tasks fail. This allows us to be more resilient in the face of system failures in many applications that can tolerate "good enough" results. This area of research is particularly dear to my heart as I was first exposed to it while taking a compiler engineering course at MIT which the author, Prof. Martin Rinard, taught. The probabilistic high-performance computing captured my interest because it challenges the widely accepted expectation that for-loops are deterministic."
The document discusses hazard communication and chemical safety training. It outlines the goals of hazard communication which are the right to know about chemical hazards, use of personal protective equipment, procedures for first aid and spills. It describes the roles and responsibilities of chemical manufacturers, employers and employees for labeling, maintaining safety data sheets and training. Common physical and health hazards of chemicals are identified along with routes of chemical exposure. The importance of labels and material safety data sheets for conveying hazard information is also highlighted.
When oil and gas workers open tank hatches to gauge or collect fluid samples on tanks that contain process fluids, they can be exposed to hydrocarbon gases and vapors, oxygen-deficient atmospheres, and fires and explosions.
The document provides a checklist for event organizers to ensure safety at university events. It outlines legal obligations for organizers to provide a safe environment. It emphasizes the importance of consultation with stakeholders and having a systematic risk assessment and control process.

This document provides guidance on proper extension cord use and safety on construction sites. It outlines that extension cords must have three wires and be rated for hard or extra-hard service. The document lists tips for inspecting cords such as checking for damage, missing grounding pins, or exposed copper wiring. It advises against using adapters or running cords across metal, and recommends using the shortest cord length and rolling cords to prevent damage. Workers should inspect tool amperage ratings and not use tools without labels.
Manual material handling like shoveling can cause strains and muscle soreness. There are various types and sizes of shovels for different materials like asphalt, sand, and fill. Proper shoveling technique is important to prevent injury. Workers should stretch before shoveling, use an adequately wide stance, drive the shovel into materials with their foot instead of back, and avoid overloading the shovel. Employers should provide the right shovel for the job and consider mechanical alternatives to manual shoveling when possible.
Work zone safety is an important issue being addressed by several government agencies and organizations. Vehicle crashes in work zones kill over 800 people and injure 40,000 people annually. Construction workers also face risks, with around 130 being killed and over 20,000 injured each year in work zones. To prevent crashes and injuries, crews should wear safety vests, properly implement traffic control plans using signs and barricades, receive training, maintain good housekeeping, and promptly report issues. Reviewing specific traffic control measures and near miss stories can help crews understand these risks and safety protocols.
This document provides information about the dangers of high pressure injection injuries that can occur from leaks in hydraulic systems or pneumatic tools. It explains that a narrow stream of fluid under high pressure can penetrate the skin, causing a puncture wound that may not be painful initially. The fluid can disperse and cause swelling and pain within 24 hours. It recommends seeking immediate medical attention for any puncture or swelling from suspected high pressure injection. It also provides tips for safely operating hydraulic tools and inspecting equipment to prevent leaks and injuries.
This document discusses construction worker safety in road work zones. It notes that over 130 workers die each year in road construction, mainly from being struck by traffic or equipment. The main hazards are construction equipment and traffic passing through work zones. To stay safe, workers should wear highly visible clothing, stay alert to equipment, avoid walking in traffic lanes, and notify supervisors of any safety issues. Demonstrating a truck's blind spot can help illustrate the importance of visibility.
1) Trench collapses can kill workers within minutes by burying or entrapping them under soil and debris. Soil weighs over 2,700 pounds per cubic yard, similar to having a vehicle fall on a person.
2) Factors that increase trench collapse risk include water, vibration, and changes in soil moisture levels from drying.
3) Trench safety tips include removing water, diverting surface water, keeping spoil back from edges, installing protective systems from top down before entry, and supporting utilities overhead. Questions are used to discuss past incidents and hazards.
This document provides a safety talk about driving within construction work zones. It notes that on average 130 workers die each year from road construction activities, with the top causes being workers struck by traffic or construction vehicles. The main hazards in work zones are construction equipment, equipment entering/exiting, and passing traffic. The talk recommends drivers slow down, set brakes when leaving vehicles, use spotters when backing up, make eye contact before moving, and be aware of blind spots to improve safety. It also suggests an activity to demonstrate how quickly vehicles can travel.
This safety talk discusses hazards from working with asphalt products. It notes that asphalt can cause burns, skin and eye irritation, and breathing issues from vapors. The vapors from heated asphalt can contain hazardous chemicals from solvents, binders, and other ingredients. It provides tips for safely working with asphalt such as reading SDS sheets, avoiding inhalation of fumes, using protective equipment like gloves and respirators, and being aware of fire hazards. The talk encourages reviewing sample SDS sheets to understand the critical safety information.
This document discusses labeling requirements for hazardous materials as part of a construction safety talk. It notes that labels on containers contain important safety information and rules include not using unlabeled containers, understanding all label warnings, and properly labeling secondary containers. Specific labeling rules are outlined for secondary containers, flammable liquids, and combustible liquids. The talk also stresses the importance of training workers on material hazards and safe use, and providing ventilation and avoiding ignition sources when using hazardous materials.
This document discusses material safety data sheets (MSDS) and provides information on how supervisors should inform their crews about hazardous materials. It explains that MSDS contain details about potential hazards, protective equipment needs, storage requirements, and emergency procedures for chemicals. Crews should read MSDS before using any materials and wear appropriate protective gear. MSDS are shared between all contractors on a job site so crews can ask about chemicals being used by others. The document provides examples of questions supervisors can ask to engage crews on MSDS and hazardous material safety.
This document discusses eye safety when working near welding or lasers. It notes that the flash from welding arcs or lasers can damage eyes even from a distance. It recommends that welders shield arcs from direct lines of sight, workers position themselves so welding is behind them, and welders and helpers inspect eye protection daily. For lasers, it advises posting signs where they are used, turning them off when not needed, and not misusing them. Various types of shaded eye protection are available for different conditions. Asking welders or laser users to demonstrate their equipment can encourage safety discussions.
This document provides safety information about electrical grounding and risks of electrical shock. It explains that 110 volts can be fatal depending on several conditions like perspiration and current path. Current as low as 0.1 amps can cause ventricular fibrillation and death. Proper grounding systems like assured grounding and GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) help prevent electrocution by detecting current leaks and interrupting power. GFCIs sense differences as small as 5mA and trip the circuit. The document recommends explaining the specific grounding system used on a work site and ensuring all tools and cords are properly maintained.
This document provides guidance on safely operating overhead cranes. It outlines key things to check during a visual inspection of the crane including looking for shiny, bent, loose, or damaged parts. Operators should also be aware of any unusual sounds or sensations from the crane that could indicate problems. While cranes have only 8 buttons to operate, safely using one requires more knowledge than just the purpose of those buttons.
This document provides guidance for crane operators on safe crane operation. It emphasizes that the operator must carefully inspect the crane for damage before operating it. The operator must also pay full attention when the crane is in motion and stop immediately if any assistants guiding the load become invisible. The operator is responsible for not exceeding the crane's rated load capacity and reporting any defects. Safe operation requires following proper procedures for emergency stops, tagouts when the crane is out of service, and avoiding standing under suspended loads.
Wire rope is made of dozens or hundreds of wires that work together to support heavy loads, and it must be regularly inspected for broken wires, permanent bends, reduction in diameter, discoloration from heat, or other damage that could cause failure. The document provides guidance on inspecting wire rope and what to look for, such as allowing 12 broken wires in one lay or 4 broken wires in one strand, and recommends against using fiber core rope above 200°F or touching a live rope. It also includes demonstration ideas to help explain wire rope inspection to a crew.
This document provides guidance for flaggers directing traffic at work sites. It outlines proper flagging procedures such as using STOP/SLOW paddles as the primary signaling method.
