This paper describes the state and status of human factors within the Space and Naval Warfare Command (SPAWAR) by focusing on a major effort currently being pursued within SPAWAR, that of developing a standard workstation design concept for Navy applications. Human factors concerns were paramount in the assessment of requirements for a standardized workstation applicable to Navy-wide requirements. The major human factors concern was display usability.

After 75 years of Indonesian Independence, the country is supposedly be developed and prosperous, as well as categorized to Super-power state, since it has abundant resources and potential demographic. However, the conditions that occur today cannot be progressed from the state of developing country. What makes Indonesia's not-so-good including massive and systematic corruption? Based on the premise, researchers review the documentation, rules, and regulations related to corruption issues. Are there enough rules? Or is there another cause that makes these rules blunt and helpless against reality? Based on the results of analyzing the rules and phenomena over government institutions, researchers conclude that the main factor of corruption in Indonesia occurs for human factors, especially those who own good strengths in government, economic, and social aspects.

Fraud is a case that often occurs in various organizations. The goal of this research was to look into and assess organizational characteristics such as leadership style and organizational culture, as well as human factors such as organizational dedication and religiosity, in order to protect the State Civil Apparatus against fraud (ASN).The population in this study is the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) of the Riau Province Government as many as 15,455. Purposive sampling was utilized, with the requirements for ASN being in a post and working for more than two years. Questionnaires were collected by sending questionnaires directly and some were sending questionnaires in the form of a google form. A total of 104 civil servants participated in this study and 100 questionnaires were processed. The results of multiple regression analysis with the help of SPSS 27 show that organizational culture and competence have an effect on ASN fraud in the Riau Provincial Government. However, leadership style and religiosity have no effect on cheating. The results of this study have a contribution to the government in reducing the occurrence of fraud.

Abstract This paper surveys the work being done in Virtual Environments (VE) in both design and manufacturing with an emphasis on the industrial use of Virtual Environments. Research and applications are categorized into seven major areas: prototyping and design visualization; verification of design assembly; design creation; concurrent product design and marketing; manufacturing; training and maintenance; and human factors in design. These seven categories are neither mutually exclusive nor collectively exhaustive. For each of these major areas, the paper discusses the issues and the state of the art, emphasizing recent significant advances.

Working at height, and especially on construction scaffolding, is one of the most accident-prone situations on a construction site. The article attempts to assess the state of threat of working on scaffolding on the basis of the proposed coefficients concerning the possibility of an occupational accident occurring. The article presents the analysis of 10 parameters, which were classified into three groups of factors that cause accidents: technical, organizational, and human factors. In order to assess the state of threat of working on scaffolding, partial hazard factors and a simplified and accurate factor of the state of threat of working were proposed. The coefficients were determined on the basis of the data collected from post-accidental control reports on occupational accidents occurring on scaffolding in the construction industry that took place in Poland in five voivodeships in the years 2008–2017, and also on the basis of the obtained results of research on 120 scaffoldings conducted in the years 2016–2018. Based on the determined factors, it was possible to determine the probability of an undesirable event, in other words, an occupational accident. In addition, the developed test method proposed numerical scales for assessing the state of threat of working on scaffolding. The form proposed in the article for assessing the state of threat of working on scaffolding, which was developed using a spreadsheet, can provide support for people managing work at workstations involving scaffolding, for example, construction directors, construction engineers, work managers, or construction managers.

Summary Objectives To summarize current excellent research in the field of bio-medical informatics human factors. Methods We provide a synopsis of the articles selected for the IMIA yearbook 2009, from which we attempt to derive a synthetic overview of the activity and new trends in the field. A special attention was made to pick papers also from non bio-medical informatics special ized journals and to perform a worldwide selection. Results while the state of the research in the field of human factors is illustrated by a set of fairly heterogeneous studies, it is possible to identify trends. Thus, clearly, the importance of issues related to healthcare information technologies (HIT) adoption, still occupies a central role in the field. Conclusions Convincing the clinicians of the HIT potential gains is still a challenge. But the HIT community will also have to give birth to interdisciplinary research and clear methods to optimize imple mentations and subsequent achievement of managerial objectives. The best paper selection of articles on human factors shows ex amples of excellent research on methods concerning original options to once again assess the importance of HIT and take into account the healthcare personnel psychology when confronted to the adop tion of new tools and processes.

Human Factors Analysis

A methodology was developed to identify the most beneficial task candidates for speech technology in an airborne crewstation. The method combined human factors analysis techniques with knowledge of the state-of-the-art in speech technology to produce a tradeoff matrix that ranks each task on pilot utility and technological feasibility. Information retrieval from flight manuals was identified as a “high need” task that could be readily implemented with a speech system in the cockpit.
