Task analysis for process‐control tasks: The method of Annett <i>et al</i> . applied

Abstract

In order to improve a process‐information system, operators' process‐control tasks were analysed according to the method of Annett et al . (1971). This method, in which tasks are described in a hierarchical way, was developed for training operators to perform their tasks. Adaptation of the method to analyse process‐control tasks is described, and its potential applications elsewhere are considered.
