The TC 4.5 considers all conditions where humans (individuals as well as groups) use, control or supervise tools, machines or technological systems. Fosters analysis, design, modeling and evaluation of HM-systems and includes:

• decision making and cognitive processes,

• modeling of human performance (reliability, mental load, predictability),

• real and virtual environments,

• design methodology,

• task allocation-sharing and job design,

• intelligent interfaces,

• human operator support,

• work organization,

• selection and training criteria.
