Scope

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 environments, virtual and augmented reality

• design methodology,

• task allocation-sharing and job design,

• intelligent interfaces,

• human operator support, adaptive aiding and rehabilitation engineering,

• work organization,

• usability engineering,

• supervisory control,

• autonomous systems

• selection and training criteria.
