The book offers a unique insight into a large European project (ESPRIT project 1217) aimed at the design and development of a human-centred CIM system. The book examines the problems inherent in developing interdisciplinary design methods and of \"crossing the border\" between the social and engineering sciences. The authors offer proposals and guidelines for overcoming such problems based on their experience within this project. \u003cb\u003eCrossing the Border\u003c\/b\u003e will be of particular interest to researchers and practitioners in the area of factory automation, to students and researchers in AI, and to all those interested in the human and organisational issues surrounding the computerised factory of the future.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1991-01-14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783540196136\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4471-1778-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 244cm x170cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 135\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44408186044556,"sku":"9783540196136","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783540196136.jpg?v=1775790687","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783540196136","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
