ProGram, a grammar based communication protocol description language, is used for architectural independent modelling of device drivers and bus interfaces for mixed hardwarehoftware systems. The specijication of the protocol is separated from the description of processor bus interfaces and operating system device driver interfaces, which ensures a high ejiciency in device driver development and...

prevalence of chronic disease could be adversely having an effect on the capability of the driver. in addition, it must increase probability of accidents. the aim of this study was to examine the relationship between chronic medical conditions and contribution in crashes among drivers. in this cross-sectional study, the populations were professional truck drivers. the numbers of 323 people were...

The shortage and aging of drivers are not problems limited to the truck industry, but common in broader commercial motor vehicle (CMV) industry Korea. This study investigates relationships between work situation, work–family conflict, depression, engagement taxi, bus, drivers. We extracted 512 CMV from 5th Korea Working Conditions Survey. A structural equation model (SEM) was used investigate i...

OBJECTIVE To analyze the putative effect of type of shift and its interaction with leisure-time physical activity on cardiovascular risk factors in truck drivers. METHODS A cross-sectional study was undertaken on 57 male truck drivers working at a transportation company, of whom 31 worked irregular shifts and 26 worked on the day-shift. Participants recorded their physical activity using the ...

Aggressive driving is common across the world. While most aggressive conscious, some behavior may be unconscious on part of motor vehicle drivers. Perceptual bias one main causes traffic accidents. This paper focuses identifying impact factors related to perceptual bias. Questionnaire data from 690 drivers, collected a drivers’ retraining course administered by Traffic Management Bureau in Nanj...

background: the high prevalence of obesity among commercial truck drivers may be related to sedentary nature of the job, lack of healthy eating choices, and lack of exercise. there may be a link between obesity and crash risk, therefore an intervention to reduce obesity in this population is needed. objective: to assess feasibility of a 12-week weight loss intervention for truck drivers with a ...

driver fatigue is one of the main causes of road accidents. this study aimed to estimate bus driver fatigue through performance measures in a virtual driving environment. the study was conducted on thirty professional male bus drivers participated in a two-hour drive session. the driver subjective fatigue was assessed by fatigue visual analogue scale (f-vas) on 10 min intervals. at the same tim...

Drivers of mining trucks are exposed to whole-body vibrations (WBV) and shocks during the various working cycles. These exposures have an adversely influence on the health, c...

Previous research has provided little insight into factors that influence the probability of bus drivers being at-fault in bus-involved accidents. In this study, an analysis was conducted on accident data compiled by a bus company that include an assessment on whether the bus driver was deemed by the company to hold primary responsibility for accident occurrence. Using a mixed logit modelling a...

The aim of this study was to evaluate daytime and nighttime sleep, as well as daytime and nighttime sleepiness of professional shift-working bus drivers. Thirty-two licensed bus drivers were assessed by nocturnal and diurnal polysomnography (PSG) recording and multiple sleep latency testing (MSLT) sessions. Sleep length was shorter and sleep efficiency reduced during daytime sleep compared with...
