Cheap does not imply cost-effective -- this is rule number one of zeitgeisty system design. The initial investment accounts only for a small portion of the lifecycle costs of a technical system. In fluid systems, about ninety percent of the total costs are caused by other factors like power consumption and maintenance. With modern optimization methods, it is already possible to plan an optimal technical system considering multiple objectives. In this paper, we focus on an often neglected contribution to the lifecycle costs: downtime costs due to spontaneous failures. Consequently, availability becomes an issue.

The products of cognitive analysis are rarely used effectively in the design of complex, first-of-a-kind systems. This project is motivated by the assumption that those products do not explicitly reveal their design the implications. On the other hand, the analyses undertaken by Systems Engineers do not capture the essential properties of cognitive requirements. The work described here is aimed at developing a computer-supported system that can support dialog between Cognitive Engineers and Systems Engineers as they seek to resolve design issues surrounding cognitive requirements. This project is in its first phase. The preliminary work has demonstrated how a Brahms model might be used to develop a prototype of a socio-technical system based on cognitive specifications developed from a Work Domain Analysis.

Humans and technology are two things that can not be separated. The rate of population growth, which is growing rapidly, proportional to the needs of people in many ways. Each activity and human needs, should be documented, so any activity and human needs can be predicted. Therefore, the data need to be collected and stored properly, effectively, and accuratel. Socio-Technical System is expected to assist and facilitate human in performing the collection and storage of data. Socio-Technical System can be applied by taking into account various aspects ranging from social, psychological, computer science, and technical. Methods of Socio-Technical implementation consists of requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, deployment, maintenance. In the testing phase, it should be noted the social and psychological aspects of the user.
