This  book statistically confirms that complexity and changing technologies  that affect the way operators interact within the systems of the nuclear  facili-ties exacerbate the severity of incidents caused by human error  and details the application of the systems engineering process to reduce  human error given industries’ rapidly advancing technology.

Technology, Human Performance, and Nuclear Facilities: A Systems Engineering Approach to Reduce Human Error provides  a basic understand-ing of Human Error/ P erformance and its relation to  industrial operations and advancing technologies incorporated into  facilities. The book discusses the context surrounding the complexity of  changing technologies at nuclear facili-ties and the potential  worsening of problems caused by human error when technology advancements  concerning operator interaction with control sys-tems are implemented.  It presents how to reduce human error propensity given the incorporation  of advanced technology and covers ways to reduce human error using the  systems engineering process. Also offered are several concepts related  to the operator’s involvement in the systems engineering process and the  human performance integration with system operational requirements and  system testing, evaluation, and validation, and the procedures and  training development in the systems engineering process. This book  presents empirical evidence for the importance of human performance  management in the con-text of nuclear facilities and offers practical  recommendations for the improve-ment of this function.

Systems  engineers, plant/ design engineers, the nuclear industry, plant  operations management, and those involved in industrial and nuclear  safety will find something of interest in this book.
