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
design Examines a transdisciplinary approach to risk management in
design and operations of safer life-critical systems Proposes an
approach of work analysis during design, which enables design teams
to consider HSI issues early enough to fix organizational problems
upstream Teaches the combination of prevention and design for
safety management This 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 book contains all refereed papers accepted during the tenth
edition of the conference that took place at the Cite
Internationale Universitaire de Paris on December 12-13, 2019.
Mastering complex systems requires an integrated understanding of
industrial practices as well as sophisticated theoretical
techniques and tools. This explains the creation of an annual
go-between forum in Paris dedicated to academic researchers &
industrial actors working on complex industrial systems
architecture, modeling & engineering. These proceedings cover
the most recent trends in the emerging field of Complex Systems,
both from an academic and a professional perspective. A special
focus is put on "Systems Engineering through the ages". The
CSD&M Paris 2019 conference is organized under the guidance of
CESAM Community. It has been developed since 2010 by the non-profit
organization CESAMES Association to organize the sharing of good
practices in Enterprise and Systems Architecture and to certify the
level of knowledge and proficiency in this field through CESAM
certification.

Human-Systems Integration: From Virtual to Tangible Subject Guide:
Ergonomics and Human Factors This 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.

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.
