Description
These proceedings contain the papers presented at the 5th IFAC Symposium on Automated Systems Based on Human Skill, held in Berlin, Germany,
26-28 September 1995. The symposium, like previous ones in the series, brought together researchers, developers and users of complex
human-machine systems. Discussions covered manufacturing, process control, aircraft and air traffic control, and administrative processes
with an emphasis on how to design such systems and integrate both developers and users into the design process. The main issues addressed,
therefore, were the joint engineering of production processes, information technology and work organisation and the possibility that
this may lead to the re-definition of human operators in process automation.
