Riassunto

In the automotive environment, the paradigm of the joint human-machine system is called the "Driver-Vehicle-Environment" (DVE) model. Several studies have pointed out the uniqueness of this domain, which can refer to minimum standardisation and normalisation of behaviours, contexts and technology. This book presents a general overview of factors that contribute to modelling human behaviour in a DVE. In practice, it is rare that all of these aspects have to be considered in total by a designer or safety analyst. However, they all contribute to creating the overall picture of the DVE model, and show the scope and dimensions of the many different interaction process that may take place and demand modelling consideration. This long-awaited volume, written by experts in the field, presents state-of-the-art research and case studies. It will be invaluable reading for graduate students, researchers and professional practitioners alike.

He holds a PhD in Nuclear Engineering from the Politecnico di Milano (Italy) and retains a number of temporary academic positions in Italian and European universities.

He is the author of two monographs and of several publications in journals and books relating to safety engineering and human-machine interaction in the domains of energy production and transportation.

He is the principal Editor, together with E. Hollnagel, of Springer's International Journal of Cognition, Technology & Work.

Dalla quarta di copertina

The study of all technological systems, in terms of design, safety assessment or training purposes requires that significant attention is dedicated to the human perspective. Techniques for user-centred design are normally applied and exploited before implementing new control devices or safety systems that are managed by a human user or operator. This demands that appropriate models of Human Machine Interaction and associated taxonomies for classifying human behaviour are available for theoretical and practical application.

In the automotive environment, the paradigm of the joint human-machine system is called the "Driver-Vehicle-Environment" (DVE) model. Several studies have pointed out the unique nature of this domain, which can refer the standardisation and normalisation of behaviours, contexts and technology.

This book presents a general overview of the various factors that contribute to modelling human behaviour in this specialised environment. All of these aspects contribute to creating the overall picture of the DVE model, and demonstrate the scope and dimensions of the many different interaction processes that demand modelling consideration.

This long-awaited volume, written by world experts in the field, presents state-of-the-art research and case studies. It will be invaluable reading for professional practitioners graduate students, researchers and alike.
