Dec 27th, 2011- Mumbai    Abhisam Software is pleased to announce it’s second workshop on Functional Safety and SIL (Safety Integrity Level) in Mumbai at Hotel Kohinoor Continental on 6th Feb 2012. The first one that we did last year was a resounding success. There were demands for another one from people who came to know of the first one rather late, so here’s good news for all of you who have been waiting for a second one!

So join us on 6th Feb 2012 and learn  about Functional Safety and SIL from the world renowned expert on the subject, Dr. Michel Houtermans! Dr. Houtermans is traveling to India only for this workshop (and the subsequent TUV Certification Course that starts from the 7th), so this is your opportunity for a face-to-face discussion with him on all matters related to SIL and Functional Safety.

So if you are a local Instrument manufacturer, who would like to get your product SIL certified, or you are an engineering or safety or process consultant, who would like to know about Safety Instrumented Systems, Safety Integrity Level, SIL study and how it is carried out, hardware and software system constraints and many other related topics, this is your opportunity to join us and learn about it.

Topics covered will be mainly (but not limited to):

Covers the following topics at an introductory level:
 * SIL and functional safety
* The role of functional safety management
 * Hazard and risk analysis as basis for SIL
* SIL Hardware concepts
* The importance of reliability analysis
 * SIL Software concepts
* SIL Certification
* International Standards IEC 61508 and IEC 61511

Registrations are limited, on a first come first serve basis, so hurry up if you are interested. Send your request to sil@abhisam.com to book your seat now!

Aug 3, 2010- This is a problem that is now staring us in the face. With Apple firmly ring fencing its iPad from anything to do with Flash or Shockwave, how to get .swf files to play on iPads? We have a lot of training courses/e-learning courses and content that would be well received by iPad customers, however the animations inside them may not run since they use Flash /Shockwave extensively. Does anybody know of any other application that can be used to produce interactive animations (not just videos) and games for e-learning that can run on iPads? Do let us know.

Welcome to the Abhisam Software blog!

This is our first post and we hope to post most of our articles, automation technology white papers, e-learning and training videos  and other information related to e-learning courses, developments in automation and other issues here.  The next post will be related to the importance of e-learning as a method of training in today’s economy.
