A prospective hazard analysis of real‐time adaptive helical tomotherapy
Abstract Background Following the release in 2016 of the report of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine Task Group 100, there has been growing interest in the use of prospective hazard analysis in radiation therapy. System Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) is an emerging technique in this domain that is particularly suited to processes ...

Rapid growth in e‐commerce has intensified the need for suppliers that align with sustainability objectives rather than focusing solely on cost and delivery speed. To address this challenge, the study applies an integrated AHP–TOPSIS framework in which Analytic Hierarchy Process assigns criterion weights—Environmental Impact (0.633), Lead Time (0.260),
