Description

A new program for automatic measurement of TcTU was developed and compared with a standard interactive method of data analysis. The new program fullfils the requirements for correct calculation of TcTU. The advantages are: reduced working load for the technician and a diminished frequency of erroneous results by improving automatisation of data handling and procedure of activity measurement as well as detailed informative dialogue with the computer without any need for special knowledge of data processing. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Das Programm erfuellt im Vergleich zu bisher angewandten Verfahren die Anforderungen zur Berechnung des TcTU. Die Vorteile des aTcTU-Programmes sind: Deutliche Arbeitsentlastung und weitgehender Ausschluss von Fehlermoeglichkeiten durch maximale Automatisierung von Datenorganisation und Messablauf sowie benutzerfreundlichen, ausfuehrlichen Dialog, der keine datentechnischen Kenntnisse erfordert.
