INIS SUBJECT ANALYSIS Title Cernavoda CANDU 600 NPP - latest in house improvements of main control room functionality based on computerized applications Abstract As part of Romania program to adhere at European Union, SNN started the construction of a new Emergency Control Center It is designed to act as a site coordination center in case of nuclear accident The communication and information channels requirements of such facility are supplemented with an electronic display for a number of critical process parameters which should briefly characterize the nuclear reactor status during the accident The authors designed, developed and deployed the system for Cernavoda NPP After implementation the system started to be evaluated in idea to be used also as an important operator tool in Main Control Room of the plant and also to be replicated in other national level emergency centers Implementation effort was helped by the Plant Information system previously deployed in MCR (author) Authors Popa-Nemoiu, D; Nica, D; dpopa@cnero; SNNuclearelectrica, Cernavoda (Romania); dnica@cnero Subject SPECIFIC NUCLEAR REACTORS AND ASSOCIATED PLANTS (S 21) Source/Report Canadian Nuclear Society, Toronto, Ontario (Canada); Canadian Nuclear Association, Ottawa, Ontario (Canada); Canadian Nuclear Society; Toronto, Ontario (Canada); Nuclear energy: a world of service to humanity. 27 th annual conference of the Canadian Nuclear Society and 30 th Canadian Nuclear Society/Canadian Nuclear Association student conference; 233 Megabytes; 2006; [10 p. ]; 27.

ABSTRACTING • Guidelines for Abstract Preparation • • Submit an informative abstract whenever possible Emphasize what is novel about the information in the original document Do not repeat the title of the original document in the body of the abstract Do not exceed 6000 characters (900 -1200 words) in length, including spaces and symbols • Title augmentation should indicate in a concise and abbreviated form the essential topic discussed in the piece of literature to which no reference is made in the title IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 14

SUBJECT INDEXING: THESAURUS • Thesaurus definition "A thesaurus is a terminological control device used in translating from the natural language of documents, indexers or users into a more constrained system language. It is a controlled and dynamic vocabulary of semantically and generically related terms which covers a specific domain of knowledge“ • Structure of the Thesaurus • two types – valid terms and forbidden terms • interrelationships are of three types: preferential (used for, seen for…), hierarchical (BT, NT…) and affinitive (RT) • each term has “word block” – all terms associated with it IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 15

SUBJECT INDEXING: THESAURUS • INIS/ETDE Thesaurus • 21882 valid terms • 8677 forbidden terms ADAPTIVE SYSTEMS BUBBLE CHAMBERS 2004 -05 -28 *BT 1 gas track detectors Systems that have the ability to learn, change their state, or otherwise react to stimuli or changes in their environment. NT 1 cryogenic bubble chambers UF self-learning systems NT 1 ultrasonic bubble chambers *BT 1 computerized control systems RT digitizers NT 1 heavy liquid bubble chambers RT algorithms IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 16

SUBJECT INDEXING: THESAURUS IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 17

SUBJECT INDEXING: RULES • • Identify concepts – translate into valid descriptors Use the most specific descriptor – always prefer NTs Do not assign BT if its NT is assigned Use the word block – BT – for correctness; NT – for specificity; RT – for completeness • Avoid overindexing (best between 5 and 20) • Propose a new term when necessary - according to the rules IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 18

SUBJECT INDEXING: TOOLS • There are two main INIS products used for indexing: Win. Fibre and CAI Win. Fibre – for input preparation both bibliographic and subject indexing CAI (Computer Assisted Indexing) – for subject classification and indexing • INIS/ETDE Thesaurus is incorporated in both IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 19

DATA FLAGGING Special emphasis should be placed on the indexing of DATA. If the document contains useful numerical data, assign an appropriate narrower term from the DATA wordblock: DATA (For data flagging always use a more specific term. ) BT 1 information NT 1 numerical data NT 2 compiled data NT 2 evaluated data NT 2 experimental data NT 2 financial data NT 2 statistical data NT 2 theoretical data RT cinda IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 22

SPECIFIC INDEXING RULES • • • Elements and Isotopes Chemical Compounds and Complexes Ions and Allotropes Alloys Nuclear Reactions Particle Interactions Reactor Names Geographic Designations Computer Codes IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 23

COMMON ERRORS IN CLASSIFCATION • Incorrect use of category • S 70 Plasma Physics and Fusion Technology instead of S 71, S 79, S 36, S 74, … • S 72 Physics of elementary particle and fields instead of S 73, S 71, S 75 • Use of more general category • S 22 General Studies of Nuclear Reactors instead of S 21 • S 43 Particle Accelerators instead of category of application – S 36, S 72, S 62, S 46… For correct classification use INIS/ETDE Scope Description IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 24

COMMON ERRORS IN INDEXING Material Science GROWTH instead of CRYSTAL GROWTH instead of THERMONUCLEAR IGNITION Plasma physics IGNITION Physics of Elementary Particles and Fields PRODUCTION instead of PARTICLE PRODUCTION COLOR MODEL instead of FLAVOR, HOLOGRAPHY, TRANSPORT, CAVITIES, SOLUTIONS…etc. IAEA INIS Training Seminar 14 -16 Novemner 2011 25
