Minimization of scheduling errors and accidents in Railways:

Railways are the connecting link to different parts of a country. Rail transport helps in transferring people and goods. Railway accidents are too common which can occur due to negligence of conductor, fault in equipment, and many others. Among them the most common cause reported is the collision with trains having same route or timing schedule.

To avoid these faults our government took several measures. The country is divided into different time zones. This system was created by sir Sand ford Fleming dated back to 1827. He proposed that there should be 24 different time slots, one for each and every hour of the day. Every country follows their specific time period. In this way, the scheduling errors are minimised.

Which of the following is proof the influence the byzantine empire had on countries of europe and asia

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Justinian's Proceedings.

Explanation:

The Proceedings of Emperor Justinian had a great influence on the future development of law. Its impact is greater in Europe and smaller in Asia. The legal systems of many modern countries are still based today on the elements of Justinian law. Already at the beginning of his reign, Justinian sought to reform Roman law, which had changed a great deal over time. Some fragments of legal acts before the reform were recounted, and many of them contained earlier acts of slavery. At the time of the creation of the law, and even later, the Roman Empire was more feudal than the slave. Justinian's Proceedings are the foundation of modern law.
