“…Sa forme la plus simple est : « si A se produit, faire X ». Il faut distinguer l'expression de la règle de son application, de son suivi (« rule following »), le résultat duquel ne dépend pas seulement de la règle, mais des conditions dans lesquelles celle-ci doit être appliquée, conditions qui ne peuvent jamais être complètement définies (Gill, 1996).…”

Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) is a multi-faceted syndrome associated with high mortality and morbidity, as well as high health care costs from both patient and healthcare system perspectives. Optimal CHF disease management involves a high degree of information management and processing, for patients and providers, as well as timely and appropriate information sharing between them. Nurses have long been important conductors of information between patients and the healthcare system, and can provide a valuable perspective on the design of interactive information technology (IIT) to support multidisciplinary sharing of health information. The complimentary perspectives of holistic nursing and human-centred engineering design are discussed in evaluating multidisciplinary information needs and information management needs regarding CHF disease management of home-based CHF patients in Iceland, the author's home country.

“…Information that the system sends and the user receives, i.e., information output and input, is expressed as communication between the two models. 1 The similarity of the two diagrams drawn in this description rule indicates consistency between the two mental models and the number of the blocks indicates the amount of user operations and the number of decisions to make in conditional branches. In general, the smaller the number of blocks, the more the amount of operation and the number of decisions is reduced.…”

“…A popular example is an automobile with drive support that assists in automated driving. With human symbiotic machines, safety and operating efficiency are expected to be improved by combining the advantages of human beings who make flexible decisions and machines that are superior in numerical/quantitative control [1].…”

This research establishes a methodology for designing human symbiotic machines. In our proposal, the mental model of a user is described by a user model diagram as an extended version of the well-known System Modeling Language (SysML). The user model diagram originated in the state machine diagram and the activity diagram of SysML. Concretely, the behavior of a machine observed by a user (user model), is drawn as a parallel to the actual behavior of a machine (system model). The user model diagram can visualize the physical processes required to use the machine and can reveal any inconsistencies between user and system models. We have selected a non-industrial stacker crane, which stores and retrieves containers through human manual operation, as an application target of the proposed design methodology. To make the stacker crane interface more user-friendly, several design plans are proposed and discussed together with descriptions of user model diagrams. To evaluate the relationship between diagrams and actual performance, prototypes of interfaces are developed, and usability tests are conducted. Results of usability tests indicate that the user model diagram is a good design tool for estimating the basic usability of a human symbiotic machine.
