Automation of Human-Machine Systems Design Based on Functional-Structural Theory

Human-centered management in polyergatic information systems. Multi-criteria distribution of functions between operators

“…• Using prediction models of the environment, ergonomics, error-free and timely implementation of functions. • Using activity models (such as "functional network" [30][31][32][33]) to predict the reliability performance and execution time of function. • Use of ergonomic databases (statistical data bases of operators' errors and operations execution time with all influencing factors taken into account) to form the initial data about reliability and execution time of all functional elements of functional network.…”

“…To monitor the functional state of operators we propose to use the method of keyboard handwriting analysis, consisting in the analysis of key press duration when entering the text of key phrases and solving the classification problem using neural networks, as well as using special manipulators of "mouse" type with built-in sensors for evaluation of cardiac system activity. We evaluate the difficulty of work according to the system of methods [30,34] of complex accounting of all workplace parameters (physical, psycho-emotional, activity tension) developed by us. We use a 6-point scale for evaluating working conditions.…”

“…We use a 6-point scale for evaluating working conditions. To predict the errorfreeness and implementation time of the activity algorithm, we use the method of describing this activity in the form of a functioning network (SF) and application of a library of computational dependencies for typical combinations of blocks [30][31][32]. The software package [23,24,27] developed by us allows to carry out such estimation automatically.…”

Functional networks for ergonomics and reliability tasks on the 90th anniversary of A. Gubinsky and V. Evgrafov

“…• The principle of equivalence (individual fragments or the entire functioning process can be replaced by operations of a lower dimension, having the same quantitative values of indicators and quality of functioning as the original fragments), • The principle of the mathematical models typicality (the most common blocks of the functioning process the TFU of form Typical Functional Structures (TFS), for each TFS mathematical models are displayed in advance, TFS are saved in the library and used when equivalent). The essence of the method is as follows (Adamenko et al, 1993, Chabanenko, 2012, Grif et al, 2018:…”
