A groundbreaking look at how technology with a human touch is
revolutionizing government and industry

Human Systems Integration (HSI) is very attractive as a new
integrating discipline designed to help move business and
engineering cultures toward a more people-technology orientation.
Over the past decade, the United States and foreign governments
have developed a wide range of tools, techniques, and technologies
aimed at integrating human factors into engineering systems in
order to achieve important cost and performance benefits that
otherwise would not have been accomplished. In order for this new
discipline to be effective, however, a cultural change is needed
that must start with organizational leadership.

Handbook of Human Systems Integration outlines the principles and
methods that can be used to help integrate people, technology, and
organizations with a common objective toward designing, developing,
and operating systems effectively and efficiently. Handbook of
Human Systems Integration is broad in scope, covering both public
and commercial processes as they interface with systems engineering
processes. Emphasizing the importance of management and
organization concepts as well as the technical uniqueness of HSI,
Handbook of Human Systems Integration features:

* More than ninety contributors, technical advisors, and reviewers
from government, industry, and academia

* Comprehensive coverage of the most recent HSI developments,
particularly in presenting the cutting-edge tools, techniques, and
methodologies utilized by each of the HSI domains

* Chapters representing the governments and industries of the
United Kingdom and Canada

* Contributions from three services of the Department of Defense
along with the Federal Aviation Administration and the National
Academy of Sciences

* Many chapters covering both military and nonmilitary
applications

* Concepts widely used by government contractors both in the United
States and abroad

This book will be of special interest to HSI practitioners, systems
engineers, and managers, as well as government and industry
decision-makers who must weigh the recommendations of all
multidisciplines contributing to systems performance, safety, and
costs in order to make sound systems acquisition decisions.
