ABSTRACT
The main aspect of the study in the rst book of this series by Bedny et al. (2014) is the analysis and design of computer-based tasks. An operator’s interaction with a computerized system is not limited to performing computerbased tasks. It also includes the performance of various tasks involving highly automated technological systems when interacting with various displays and controls. Therefore in this book we primarily discuss those aspects of task analysis and design where an operator interacts with displays and controls in man-machine systems. However, some aspects of computerized tasks and manual components of work in contemporary industries are also considered.
