Explores the breadth and versatility of Human Systems Engineering (HSE) practices and illustrates its value in system development
A Framework of Human Systems Engineering: Applications and Case Studies offers a guide to identifying and improving methods to integrate human concerns into the conceptualization and design of systems. With contributions from a panel of noted experts on the topic, the book presents a series of Human Systems Engineering (HSE) applications on a wide range of topics: interface design, training requirements, personnel capabilities and limitations, and human task allocation.
Each of the book’s chapters present a case study of the application of HSE from different dimensions of socio-technical systems. The examples are organized using a socio-technical system framework to reference the applications across multiple system types and domains. These case studies are based in real-world examples and highlight the value of applying HSE to the broader engineering community. This important book:
* Includes a proven framework with case studies to different dimensions of practice, including domain, system type, and system maturity
* Contains the needed tools and methods in order to integrate human concerns within systems
* Encourages the use of Human Systems Engineering throughout the design process
* Provides examples that cross traditional system engineering sectors and identifies a diverse set of human engineering practices
Written for systems engineers, human factors engineers, and HSI practitioners, A Framework of Human Systems Engineering: Applications and Case Studies provides the information needed for the better integration of human and systems and early resolution of issues based on human constraints and limitations.
