This book is intended to provide novel insights into the discipline of Human Systems Integration (HSI) and its application to the design of complex systems (including the notion of socio-technical systems) within the transport industry. Covering diverse domains such as aviation, air traffic management, rail infrastructure and engineering, unmanned road and aerial vehicles amongst others, this title draws on contributions from a diverse group of Human Factors and Engineering professionals with industry experience, and additional contributions from subject-matter experts in the different domains.

Human Systems Integration contributes to the field of knowledge by offering a critical perspective on the effectiveness of different techniques that are being applied to design. This approach is complemented throughout with guidance to practically apply the implementation of HSI principles in transportation projects and major acquisition programs throughout the world. Backed up with real-world industry case studies and written in an accessible and engaging manner, every chapter offers a critical analysis of the challenges experienced when implementing HSI techniques as well as the effectiveness and value-add to these projects. This book is written by practitioners for practitioners and will guide the reader in the selection of the most effective HSI approaches for major transportation projects.

Human-Systems Integration in the Design of Complex Transport Systems will be a vital source of information for practitioners of human factors and ergonomics, systems engineering and those in civil, cognitive systems, aeronautical, systems, aerospace and automotive engineering. It will equally appeal to those studying or working in psychology, applied artificial intelligence, air transport, design thinking and intelligent transport systems, system integration and logistics.

• Contains real-world examples from Human-Systems Engineering (HSI) practices applied in landmark projects


• Features techniques on how to apply HSI in the context of emergent technologies Offers a pragmatic view of on design and HSI complex concepts, presented by industry professionals Collates a compilation of professional experiences and perspectives on HSI from professionals all over the globe


• Presents novel views on what HSI is and how it relates to the disciplines of engineering, human factors & ergonomics, human factors integration and human centered design
