Research Project: Participative Design
Location: Institute of systems engineering and human-machine systems, University of Kassel, Kassel, Germany
Detailed project title: Participative Design: Interactive Design and Evaluation of Operator Interfaces in Process Control.
Time period: 1992-1996
Financing: DFG - The German Research Foundation.
Project description: During the first phase of this DFG-project, different methods for user interface design in process supervision and control engineering were developed. Human operators are allowed to participate interactively in the design process from the very beginning by using these methods. In order to achieve effective participation of human operators by designing their user displays, a comprehensive task analysis, powerful rapid design tools (for example Dynavis-X) as well as evaluation experiments in several stages of the design process were needed. Several dynamic user displays with different philosophies such as conventional process visualization using flow diagrams of industrial plants and more advanced visualization techniques (e.g., by means of the multi-flow modeling approach) were realized.
In the second period of this project, the participation aspect was extended to the hypermedia approach in order to improve the motivation and the qualification of human operators. This goal was accomplished using new forms of process visualization, qualitative simulations for animation of already existing user displays, and integration of hypermedia-based user displays in process control systems. All methods and techniques developed during this project were evaluated and tested with a simulated chemical distillation process. This simulation was developed at the Institute of System Dynamics and Control Engineering of the University of Stuttgart.
