Please read Chapters 7 & 9 in the textbook.

Within Chapter 7, Francis Gavin brilliantly articulates an analogy between the expansion of cyberspace and the growth of the railroads in the early 20th century.

He opens his discussion, “The role of new technologies, especially the massive expansion of rail lines throughout Europe and their ability to move huge numbers of men and weapons more quickly to the battlefield, is often seen as a key element of how the July 1914 Crisis began and played itself out in a catastrophic world war. Can we generate insights from this history into how emerging cyber capabilities might affect great power crises in the future? What, if anything, can the story of railroads and their effect on international stability tell us about cybers influence on crisis stability today, and looking into the future”

In your discussion post, I want you to answer those specific questions. In no more than 750 words, please discuss those critical questions, and the analogy he unpacks in the chapter

Unit VIII Case Study

Instructions

This assignment is designed to provide an opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge of the components of an ergonomic process. Specifically, you will be reading a case study and compiling a paper that discusses the compatibility of the components of the ergonomics process and the components of a safety management system.

Click here to access the case study.

You are required to develop a two-page written report that must include each of the following elements:

an overview of the case;
identification and discussion of the elements/components of the participatory ergonomics program and the occupational safety and health management systems that were similar and different (you may need to refer to your unit lesson); and
YOUR assessment of the compatibility of participatory ergonomics programs and occupational safety and health management systems.
Your completed project must include a minimum of two outside sources, one of which must be from the CSU Online Library; a two-page written report; and both a title page and references page.
