Alarms and alarm systems are often an integral aspect of a Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI), along with displays and controls. An effective HMI should support optimal human performance.

Alarms help personnel to maintain a system or process within a safe operating ‘envelope’ and help them recognise early and respond to faults, malfunctions or abnormal conditions.

An alarm can be defined as an audible or visual indication of an equipment malfunction, process deviation, or abnormal condition requiring a response by a person.

A key point is that every alarm should have a clearly defined operator response. If a response cannot be defined, then the signal generated by the Human-Machine Interface should not be an alarm.

Ineffective alarm management has often been cited as a contributory factor in major accidents around the world. Alarm management refers to the processes and practices for designing, operating, monitoring and maintaining alarm systems.

The goal of ErgoX is to improve safe and effective user technology adoption. ErgoX explores the latest in new technology and research, and its applications in human factors and ergonomics. This conference promotes multi-disciplinary and cross-market collaboration through three tracks: cybersecurity, exoskeletons, and robotics.

A large topic in ergonomic exoskeleton design and development is centered around the integration of artificial intelligence systems along with it’s benefits & impacts to end-users

When integrated with exoskeletons, cybersecurity, and robotics, AI presents an opportunity to deliver effective technology and enhance productivity. This cannot be done safely without considering the humans that interact with these systems and machines. The theme of this year’s virtual symposium will examine the intersection of AI and HF/E in the design of safe, user-centered technology and equipment.

Computer-integrated Manufacturing, Organization, and People System Design (CIMOP): This model allows for evaluating computer-integrated manufacturing, organization, and people system design based on knowledge of the system.

The CIMOP (computer-integrated manufacturing, organization and people) system is a knowledge-base

evaluation system. It was developed for evaluating computer-integrated manufacturing, organization,

and people system design. The intended users of CIMOP are companies with an existing CIM system;

companies designing, redesigning, or implementing a new CIM system; and consultants, researchers, or

any other parties engaged with CIM system design and evaluation

...and now for another Human Factors Minute! Did you know that the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society has 24 technical groups that are concerned with the human factors aspects of specific application areas?

One of those is the Occupational Ergonomics Technical Group (formerly Industrial Ergonomics). This TG is concerned with the application of ergonomics data and principles for improving safety, productivity, and quality of work in industry.

It concentrates on service and manufacturing processes, operations, and environments, including the design of products that form the basis of industrial employment.

Members of this TG are primarily interested in ensuring that ergonomics is effectively utilized by all sectors of the industrial work force, and that ergonomics practitioners and researchers monitor our status so high quality research is conducted and subsequently reported.

HFES has developed a technical standard in conjunction with the American National Standards Institute:

In November 2007, the American National Standards Institute approved ANSI/HFES 100-2007, Human Factors Engineering of Computer Workstations as an American National Standard.

The ANSI/HFES 100-2007 Human Factors Engineering of Computer Workstations provides specific guidance for the design and installation of computer workstations for a wide variety of users, including displays, input devices, postures (seated, reclined, and standing), illuminance, and furniture.

The integration chapter offers guidance regarding how individual elements that are ergonomically well designed can be integrated into a workplace system that is also ergonomically appropriate.

TOP (Technology, Organization, and People) modeler is a macroergonomic tool that helps manufacturing companies identify the organizational changes needed when new technologies are being considered for their process.

Established in 1991, the multi-year, industry-focused, ten-million dollar research program developed the core knowledge and operational framework of such a tool.

The effort was a massive collaboration between the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences, Digital Equipment Corpo-ration, Hewlett-Packard, Texas Instruments, Hughes Electronics, and General Motors. ;

The collaboration focused oncontent,structure, and user interface for a tool to help managers bring benchmarked knowledge to bear on these unstructured strategic decisions.

TOP-MODELER consists of a modular, replaceable knowledgebase and analytical methodology, coupled to a friendly user interface that allows users to tailor, manipulate, and apply the core knowledgebase to accurately capture and solve each unique strategic or operations problem

HF in Aviation is concerned with the application of human

factors to the development, design, certification, operation, and maintenance of

human-machine systems in aviation and space environments.

HF pros addresses

issues for civilian and military systems in the realm of performance and safety.

Human factors practitioners working in the field of aerospace are engaged in basic

research, advanced system design, and improvement of current operational systems.

The human factors practitioner is the primary user advocate during system

development, testing, and operation. Specific areas of emphasis include the following:

• Crewstation design - single and multi-operator

• Operator-computer interface-software design

• Training devices and protocols, system usability evaluations

The government, industry, and academia conduct research related to human factors in

aerospace systems.

Most of this research is involved with military and civilian aircraft,

air traffic control or space systems. Some of the areas of research include:

• Development of an automated measure of air traffic controller workload

• Information requirements of en route air traffic controllers

• Luminance requirements for helmet-mounted displays

...and now for another Human Factors Minute! Did you know that the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society has 24 technical groups that are concerned with the human factors aspects of specific application areas?

One of those is the The Internet Technical Group (ITG). The Internet Technical Group, or ITG is a community for professionals from industry, academia and government organizations who share a common interest in Internet technologies and related behavioral phenomena.

The ITG provides value to its membership through enabling and encouraging an immediate exchange of research, ideas and technical innovations.

The internet TG publishes a free quarterly newsletter called internetworking. It also sends out a mailing list to members of the TG.

Unlike other HFES technical groups, it is not necessary to be a member of HFES in order to join this technical group.
