Human Factors

Objectives

After completing this course you will be able to : explain how Human Factors are applied to the engineering and operation of cooperative avionics systems understand how a model of the interactions between operators and their environment helps identifying potential system failures explain know how operators process and memorize information and define their physiological limits identify what causes stress and what are the consequences on operator performance define place and role of the operator within automatic systems define the impact of automation on operator performance, define the impact of new technologies of communication on air-ground and air-air co-operation describe human factors approaches in representative industrial development processes
