Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering: Proceedings of the 24th Conference on MMESE (Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering, 1256, Band 1256)

From this book reader will learn the best research topics and the latest development trend in MMESE theory and application. Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering (MMESE) is a scientific study on the design concepts and quantitative analysis of a complex giant system using physiology, psychology, system engineering, computer science, environment science, management theory, education, and other related disciplines methods. MMESE focuses mainly on the relationship and the optimum combination between Man, Machine, and Environment. The three optimized goals of the MMESE study are safety, efficiency, and economy. Researchers and professionals who study a human-centered interdisciplinary subject crossing above disciplines will be mostly benefited from this proceedings.

In 1981 with direct support from one of the greatest modern Chinese scientists, Xuesen Qian, Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering (MMESE), the integrated and advanced science research topic was established in China by Professor Shengzhao Long.

Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering: Proceedings of the 24th Conference on MMESE is the academic showcase of latest research papers selected from more than 500 submission in this field in 2024.

Professor Shengzhao Long is the founder of the Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering (MMESE),the chairman of the Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering (MMESE) Committee of China, the chairman of the Beijing Kecui Man-Machine Environment System Engineering Technology Research Institute, and the former director of Ergonomics Lab of Astronaut Centre of China. In October 1992, he is honored by the Chinese Government National Specific Allowance. Professor Shengzhao Long graduated from the Shanghai Science and Technology University in 1965, China. In 1981, supported by the famous modern scientist Qian Xuesen, he founded MMESE theory.
