Identifying the barriers affecting quality in maintenance within Libyan manufacturing organisations (public sector) (2005)
Thesis
Mohamed, O. Identifying the barriers affecting quality in maintenance within Libyan manufacturing organisations (public sector). (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

This research is concerned with understanding a quality management system and its
interaction with maintenance management activities within the organisation. The
interaction between maintenance and quality, can lead to their integration with
produ... Read More about Identifying the barriers affecting quality in maintenance within Libyan manufacturing organisations (public sector).

A cohort study was designed to explore over 200 primary schoolchildren's (ages 4–7) perspectives on smoking in the context of their own lives and subsequently, to assess any changes in these perspectives over time. Results showed that, in general, t... Read More about A longitudinal study exploring Liverpool primary schoolchildren's perspectives on smoking.

Nursing informatics: a personal review of the past, the present and the future (2005)
Journal Article
Hardiker, N., & Hyeoun-Ae, P. (2005). Nursing informatics: a personal review of the past, the present and the future

There is evidence that nurses have been involved in, or have been affected by health- related computer projects since the mid-1960's. Since those early years nurses have made many significant contributions to the wider bio-health informatics agenda....
