INCOSE-LA November 12 Speaker Meeting
Human Systems Engineering
with John O. Clark
INCOSE, CAB, or Academic Council Members/Students Only
ABSTRACT: How do we systems engineer humans? How do we engineer systems that include humans? Do all systems include humans? If so, which humans, how are they included in a system, and how do we perform systems engineering on them? Are they elements of the system like hardware and software are? Do we have hardware, software, and humanware? (Yes, you heard it here first folks, humanware!). Are there any systems that do not include humans in any way whatsoever? This presentation discusses these questions from the SE Standards and INCOSE SE Handbook perspectives, going back to their earlier versions and coming up to date, including the two most recent approaches. At the end of this presentation we ask you to answer the question: Which of the two most recent approaches do you consider to be the optimum and for what reasons?
