Human Factors in Organizational Design and Management-II
Author: Human Factors Society
Publisher: North Holland
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 724
Book Description
Concentrating on a macroergonomic systems approach to the design of organizational and managerial systems, this book also considers organizational design elements and managerial processes in the application of human factors/ergonomics to the design of specific subsystems, jobs and workstations. Included here is a selection of papers on theory, methodology, research findings, reviews and case studies from leading professionals throughout the world. The symposium was sponsored by the International Ergonomics Association and the Human Factors/Ergonomics Associations of the U.S.A., Canada and Japan.

Advances in Social and Organizational Factors
Author: Peter Vink
Publisher: AHFE International (USA)
ISBN: 149512102X
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 598
Book Description
An exploration of how ergonomics can contribute to the solution of important societal and engineering challenges, Advances in Social and Organizational Factors discusses the optimization of sociotechnical systems, including their organizational structures, policies, and processes. It includes coverage of communication, crew resource management, work design, design of working times, teamwork, participatory design, community ergonomics, cooperative work, new work paradigms, organizational culture, virtual organizations, telework, and quality management. The book provides research on urban infrastructures and how to shape urban spaces, including stadiums and museums. It covers warning systems in cars, voice-based interfaces, and the positive effects on manufacturing processes available from health informatics and management systems. Several chapters examine the role human factors can play in counter-terrorism efforts and in interpreting deceptive behaviors. They provide suggestions on how to improve enterprise resource planning systems and stress the importance of lifelong learning, personalized learning, and work-life balance. The book also highlights issues with special populations, detailing how to design and adapt products and work situations for these groups. In addition to exploring the challenges faced in optimizing sociotechnical systems, the book underlines themes that play a role in all the challenges and how they are linked to each other. It concludes with an exploration of emotional ergonomics and the important positive effects of making people happy and healthy. With authors from around the globe, the book supplies a broad look at current challenges and possible solutions.

Design Issues in CSCW
Author: Duska Rosenberg
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1447120299
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
One of the most significant developments in computing over the last ten years has been the growth of interest in computer based support for people working together. Recognition that much work done in offices is essentially group work has led to the emergence of a distinct subfield of computer science under the title Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW). Since the term was first coined in 1984, there has been growing awareness of the relevance to the field of, and the valuable con tributions to be made by, non-computing disciplines such as sociology, management science, social psychology and anthro pology. This volume addresses design issues in CSCW, an- since this topic crucially involves human as well as technical considerations - brings together researchers from such a broad range of disciplines. Most of the chapters in this volume were originally presented as papers at the one-day seminar, "Design Issues in CSCW", held at the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), London, on 17 March 1992, one in aseries of DTI-supported CSCW SIG seminars. We would like to express our gratitude to the series editors, Colston Sanger and Dan Diaper, for their useful comments on, and suggestions for revisions to, the final draft of the manuscript; to Linda Schofield, our editor at Springer, for her continued encouragement throughout the preparation of the manuscript; and, finally, to our respective families for their support and patience over so many months.
