Human–Systems Integration: From Virtual to TangibleSubject Guide: Ergonomics and Human FactorsThis book is an attempt to better formalize a systemic approach to human–systems integration (HSI). Good HSI is a matter of maturity… it takes time to mature. It takes time for a human being to become autonomous, and then mature! HSI is a matter of human–machine teaming, where human–machine cooperation and coordination are crucial. We cannot think engineering design without considering people and organizations that go with it. We also cannot think new technology, new organizations, and new jobs without considering change management.More specifically, this book is a follow-up of previous contributions in human-centered design and practice in the development of virtual prototypes that requires progressive operational tangibility toward HSI. The book discusses flexibility in design and operations, tangibility of software-intensive systems, virtual human-centered design, increasingly autonomous complex systems, human factors and ergonomics of sociotechnical systems, systems integration, and changed management in digital organizations. The book will be of interest to industry, academia, those involved with systems engineering, human factors, and the broader public.

Most approaches that contribute to the design of life-critical systems almost only consider nominal situations where procedures can be developed and used to achieve satisfactory operations. These kinds of approaches lead to rigid ways of doing things and poorly address the needs for flexibility, especially when things go wrong. It is not a matter of human adaptation but of human systems integration (HSI) flexibility. HSI flexibility requires cross-fertilization of appropriate experiences combined with creativity. This book provides risk-management approaches and methods for combining prevention and design.Features: Discusses risk-management approaches and methods for combining prevention and designExamines a transdisciplinary approach to risk management in design and operations of safer life-critical systemsProposes an approach of work analysis during design, which enables design teams to consider HSI issues early enough to fix organizational problems upstreamTeaches the combination of prevention and design for safety managementThis book gathers and analyzes relevant field data to rationalize human and systems activity in various life-critical environments and workplaces, in a systemic manner, and in a variety of safety domains (e.g., aviation, road, navy, manufacturing, hospital, transportation, defense, sport). It further formalizes and analyzes risk-taking experience, expertise, stories about critical events, and scientific and professional literature data to help engineering designers, managers, and health and safety specialists.The text is primarily written for graduate students and professionals working in the fields of occupational health and safety, ergonomics, human factors, cognitive engineering, and human-system integration.

This handbook presents a bold rethinking of Human Systems Integration (HSI) within Sociotechnical Systems (STSs), capturing the shift from traditional human-machine interaction to a dynamic, multi-agent systems approach. Drawing from various disciplines, including human factors, ergonomics, systems engineering, and artificial intelligence, the handbook explores the integration of technology, organizations, and people in increasingly complex and digitalized environments. The evolution reflected in these pages aligns with broader societal trends, from the rise of digital engineering and virtual prototyping to the growing necessity for holistic, context-aware design in life-critical domains.Fully updated, this new edition provides the tools and perspectives to shape resilient, intelligent, and human-compatible systems. As a comprehensive and reorganized reference spanning 14 sections and 45 chapters authored by leading experts from diverse fields, the handbook explores models, methods, and real-world applications that support the design, development, and management of complex STSs. Key topics include human-autonomy teaming, performance support, scenario-based design, organizational maturity, and the crucial role of tangibility in digital systems. For professionals focused on AI integration, safety assurance, or enhancing user experience across system lifecycles, the resource offers actionable insights and proven frameworks to meet the challenges of modern system complexity. Readers gain a thorough, helicopter view of HSI and STSs in various usable contexts.Handbook of Sociotechnical Systems: A Human Systems Integration Approach, Second Edition is an essential resource for engineers, designers, researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and educators who work with people, technology, and organizations. The content proves especially valuable for those involved in high-stakes, high-complexity environments such as aerospace, defense, healthcare, energy, and public systems.

Design for flexibility requires anticipation, preparation, creativity and experience. Future highly digital sociotechnical systems should contrast with those stemming from technology-centered engineering that produces objects and machines with the immensely codified and rigid practices we know today. Most of the time, current technologies are designed and developed for normal situations, leaving users to manage abnormal and emergency situations themselves, sometimes under unforeseen, extreme and/or dangerous conditions. Putting humans at the center of the design of flexible sociotechnical systems means visualizing possible futures, modeling them, simulating them and leading them down the right paths. This book is for the engineering designers, who seek to better understand the roles of humans and organizations developing complex life-critical systems. It is also for those who train future designers who will have to take into account the well-being, safety, sustainability and efficiency of the actors of future sociotechnical systems. It is about an emergent discipline, human systems integration (HSI). The aim of the flexibility challenge is to put the artificial at the service of the natural, and not the other way around.The author, an aerospace engineering designer, has worked for 40 years in the field of human-centered design (HCD) of complex systems, discovering repeatedly that automation leads to rigidity, especially when things go wrong. It is urgent we had a new paradigm where flexibility is a major asset in human systems integration. HCD is seen here as the combination of practices and technologies to come.

Distinguishingbetween tangible user interfaces (TUI) and tangible interactive systems (TISs),this book takes into account not only the user interfaces but also looks at howinteraction can be enabled by using digital information through the physicalenvironment. TISs go far beyond the concept of tangible user interfaces,addressing large complex systems in the framework of human-centred design andputting the human at the center of the design process from the start.Howcan human-centered designers grasp the real world with computers? This questionis explored by looking at concepts such as innovation, complexity, flexibility,maturity, stability, sustainability and art to see whether we can assess bothphysical and figurative tangibility during the design process before productdelivery. Concepts like creativity, design thinking and team spirit arefundamental to TIS’s human-centered design, and are presented together withhuman-systems integration (HSI), agile development and formative evaluations tobuild a greater understanding of this new area of research.TangibleInteractive Systems wouldbe an essential read to designers, academics and other professionals concernedwith product design within HCI, industrial design, virtual engineering andother related areas.
