Dynamic energy-consumption indicators for domestic appliances: environment, behaviour and design

TL;DR: In this paper, the effectiveness of providing paper-based energy-use/saving information with electronic feedback of energy-consumption via smart meters and displays, or "energyconsumption indicators" (ECI) is reviewed.

Team Training in the Skies: Does Crew Resource Management (CRM) Training Work?:

TL;DR: The aviation community has invested great amounts of money and effort into crew resource management (CRM) training, but it cannot ascertain whether CRM has an effect on an organization's bottom line (i.e., safety), so the impact of CRM cannot be truly determined.

Applying the lessons of high risk industries to health care

TL;DR: The current status of health care is reviewed, arguing that it has a much higher level of accidents and has a reactive culture, lagging behind both high risk industries studied in both attitude and systematic management of patient risks.
