Socio-technical systems: From design methods to systems engineering
2011
Interacting with computers
From the framework, we identify an initial set of interdisciplinary research problems that address how to apply socio-technical approaches in a cost-effective way, and how to facilitate the integration ...
Despite this, such approaches are not widely practised. We analyse the reasons for this, highlighting some of the problems with the better known socio-technical design methods. ...
Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank Denis Besnard, John Rooksby and Phil Tetlow for comments on an earlier draft, and the anonymous reviewers whose comments have helped to improve the paper ...

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS As already mentioned above, in passing, the current implementation of the DSP component of the AESI was made with SymbolicSound's KYMA5.2 (running on the CAPYBARA320 DSP engine). ...
FROM INTERACTIVE COMPOSING TO COMPOSING INTERACTIONS The very process of 'interaction' is today rarely understood and implemented for what it seems to be in living organisms (either human or not, e.g. ...

Challenging reality using techniques from interactive drama to support social simulations in virtual worlds
2012
Proceedings of The 8th Australasian Conference on Interactive Entertainment Playing the System - IE '12
In this paper we consider a more challenging form of social simulation in VWs involving intelligent social interactions between humans and computer-based non-player characters in VWs, known as intelligent ...
As many educationalists, organizations and researchers are finding, Virtual Worlds (VWs) provide an environment for conducting person to person social simulations. ...

Human Organization
If we were to set up a continuum or scale for dealing with each of these character- istics, say from little to much control, and from little to much context, I think we would find that most studies in ...

Implementation science for ambulatory care safety: a novel method to develop context-sensitive interventions to reduce quality gaps in monitoring high-risk patients
2017
Implementation Science
Using a National Academies framework and context-sensitivity theory, we identified common systems vulnerabilities and developed preliminary concepts for improving the robustness for monitoring patients ...
In response, we aim to demonstrate a novel method to identify common vulnerabilities across clinics and generate attributes for context-flexible population-level monitoring solutions for widespread implementation ...

Risk and irreversibility of transport interventions
2014
Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice
The reality is very much different, especially in the transport sector, due to the complex and dynamic nature of the transport system and the interplay between the many subsystems that comprise it. ...
Since circumstances are very likely to change over time and unintended effects can arise, there is a need for flexibility in the design of policy packages to allow as much as possible changes in the package ...

Cyber Resilience: by Design or by Intervention?
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
Here, by cyber resilience we refer to the ability of the system to resist, minimize and mitigate a degradation caused by a successful cyber-attack on a system or network of computing and communicating ...
In all cases, the qualifier "by design" indicates that the source of resilience is somehow inherent in the structure and operation of the system. ...
(Parenthetically, we should mention that the term "system" in this paper refers to a socio-technical system consisting of technical artifacts as well as humans if and when humans are integral parts of ...

See with Your Eyes, Hear with Your Ears and Listen to Your Heart: Moving from Dyadic Teamwork Interaction towards a More Effective Team Cohesion and Collaboration in Long-Term Spaceflights under Stressful Conditions
2020
Big Data and Cognitive Computing
The scientific study of teamwork in the context of long-term spaceflight has uncovered a considerable amount of knowledge over the past 20 years. ...
Although much is known about the underlying factors and processes of teamwork, much is left to be discovered for teams who operate in extreme isolation conditions during spaceflights. ...
Understanding these mechanisms will allow us to predict and control dynamic interaction among humans and enable technology in human-system interaction to enhance and sustain cohesion as a human team member ...
