Abstract

<div style=&#8243; class="ui&#8211;tabs&#8211;panel" id="fragment&#8211;2"> <div> <p>Recent accidents in a range of industries have increased concern over the design, management and control of safety&#8211;critical systems&#046; Much recent attention has focussed upon the role of human error both in the development and in the operation of complex processes&#046; This working conference will, therefore, provide a forum for practitioners and researchers to discuss leading edge techniques that can be used to mitigate the impact of human error on safety&#8211;critical systems&#046; Our intention is to focus the working conference upon techniques that can be easily integrated into existing systems engineering practices&#046; With this in mind, we hope to address a number of different themes: </p> <ul><li> techniques for incident and accident analysis;</li><li> empirical studies of operator</li><li> behaviour in safety&#8211;critical systems;</li><li> observational studies of safety&#8211;critical systems;</li><li> risk assessment techniques for interactive systems;</li><li> safety&#8211;related interface design,</li><li> development and testing&#046;</li></ul> <p>We would also encourage papers that cross these boundaries&#046; Finally, we are interested to encourage contributions from many diverse sectors&#046; These include but are not limited to aviation, maritime and the other transportation industries, the healthcare industries, process and power generation, military application&#046;</p> </div> </div>
