The variety and increasing availability of hypermedia
information systems, which are used in stationary applications like
operators' consoles as well as mobile systems, e.g. driver
information and navigation systems in automobiles form a foundation
for the mediatization of the society. From the human engineering
point of view this development and the ensuing increased importance
of information systems for economic and private needs require
careful deliberation of the derivation and application of
ergonomics methods particularly in the field of information
systems.
This book consists of two closely intertwined parts. The first,
theoretical part defines the concept of an information system,
followed by an explanation of action regulation as well as
cognitive theories to describe man information system interaction.
A comprehensive description of information ergonomics concludes the
theoretical approach.
In the second, practically oriented part of this book authors
from industry as well as from academic institutes illustrate the
variety of current information systems taken from different fields
of transportation, i.e. aviation, automotive, and railroad. The
reader thus gains an overview of various applications and their
context of use as well as similarities and differences in design.
This does not only include a description of the different
information systems but also places them in the context of the
theories and models, which were presented in the first part of this
book.
