Description
Human-Machine Integration deals with how humans and computer interact. The course provides students with the basis to analyse, evaluate, and design human-machine interfaces that effectively meet human needs. It familiarises students with the limitations and variability of human capabilities, and introduces them to analysis techniques and design methods that support the development of effective interfaces. The course also introduces students to the potential for unplanned social and organisational effects of the introduction of computer systems.
