Incorporating Epistemic Uncertainty into the Safety Assurance of Socio-Technical Systems
In system development, epistemic uncertainty is an ever-present possibility when reasoning about the causal factors during hazard analysis. Such uncertainty is common when complicated systems interact with one another, and it is dangerous because it impairs hazard analysis and thus increases the chance of overlooking unsafe situations. Uncertainty around causation thus needs to be managed well....
متن کاملPutting the technical back into socio-technical systems research
Socio-technical systems (STS) analysis has provided us with a powerful framework with which to analyse the reasons behind the poor acceptability, uptake and performance of many information or communication technology systems (ICT). However, for the contribution of STS thinking to be more than simply a means of critiquing current practices and ICT systems, it needs to also contribute to the proc...
متن کاملSocio - Technical Systems
Computer systems have long been seen as more than just mechanical systems (Boulding, 1956). They seem to be systems in a general sense (Churchman, 1979), with system elements, like a boundary, common to other systems (Whitworth & Zaic, 2003). A computer system of chips and circuits is also a software system of information exchanges. Today, the system is also the human-computer combination (Alte...
متن کاملIntegrating Security into Information Systems Development : A Socio - Technical
This paper provides a framework to reconcile the apparent duality between Information Systems Development and Information Systems Security Development. Though there is a substantial foundation of literature on approaches and methodologies for Information Systems Development as well as for Information systems Security Development, the two are not well integrated. Part of the cause of the continu...
متن کاملAssessing the Reliability of Socio-technical Systems
This paper presents a Bayesian belief network (BBN) approach for socio technical system reliability assessment. A human error model (BBN) quantifies error influences arising from user knowledge, ability and task environment, combined with factors describing the complexity of user action and user interface quality. System reliability evaluation is achieved by the Scenario Reliability analyser to...
