171 Task allocation problems and discrete event systems
1993
Control Engineering Practice
The allocation of tasks to humans and machines in complex systems is discussed from three perspectives. Systems engineering as manifested in the design of flexible manufacturing systems, organization design as applied to decision making teams that monitor and control engineering systems, and cognitive ergonomics are the three perspectives used. The limitations of fixed task allocations are articulated; while the case is made for integrated experimental and theoretical investigations that address the dynamic aspects of task allocation.
