[PDF] Joint Cognitive Systems: Patterns in Cognitive Systems Engineering David D. Woods, Erik Hollnagel

Synthesizing basic results on how to design human work with complex systems, Joint Cognitive Systems: Patterns in Cognitive Systems Engineering provides examples of successful cognitive systems engineering research and design. It covers patterns in how joint cognitive systems work and those that have emerged from research and design in this field. The authors discuss basic findings or control laws that determine the behavior and performance of joint systems. They also explore how to design joint coverage systems. This text will be welcomed by practitioners of human factors who are in charge of finding solutions that can ensure the safe functioning of technological systems.
