In recent years, the U.S. military services have increasingly recognized that effective human systems integration is key to properly balancing affordability and capability for military systems. Human System Integration Symposium (HSIS) 2007 will provide a forum that brings together HSI experts from military, industry and academia along with engineers and designers who are striving to apply HSI within system engineering for emerging military systems; as well as the acquisition managers and operators that benefit from effective HSI implementation. More and more it is recognized that the military, industry, and academia all have separate as well as combined roles to play in realizing the benefits of HSI. Therefore, this conference will explore the theme of Military, Industry and Academia: Bridging Human Performance Science to Engineering Practice.
The greatest potential for improving human and total system performance and training resides in the system acquisition, research and design process. Today, as requirements for new systems multiply to support new and potentially unforeseen operational requirements, engineers and acquisition managers often recognize that human performance is a key parameter. This thinking has begun to replace traditional acquisition practice where human performance was usually not addressed during system development and design. To optimize total system performance and minimize total ownership cost, the human must be considered, and designed as, an integrated component of the system. Human performance cost trades must be made in conjunction with hardware and software cost trades at each step of the acquisition process. This conference seeks to share lessons learned from military, industry, and academia to help support future improvements in designs. A well-designed system reflects a thorough understanding of both science and application to achieve the optimal results.
HSIS 2007 offers a broad array of challenging topics, distinguished speakers and expert panel discussions that will help the Military, Industry, and Academia become partners in HSI excellence. Topics in the areas of net-centric operations, test and evaluation, modeling and simulation, complex military systems, and acquisition will generate broad discussion and debate.
