“…This has led to a change in the focus of human failure analysis: if the context is the major factor affecting human performance failure, the relation between the context and the probability of human failure should be modeled. This is the underlying principle of the so-called "second generation" methods of HRA like the Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM) (Hollnagel., 1998) and A Technique for Human Error Analysis (ATHEANA) (Cooper et al, 1994).…”

“…Le modèle Nuclear Action Reliability Assessment (NARA) proposé dans (Kirwan et al, 2004) utilise l'Error Producing Conditions (EPC) pour une situation critique de sécurité. Ce contexte critique est également utilisé dans les lignes directrices de la méthode A Technique for Human Error Analysis (ATHEANA) (S. E. Cooper et al, 1996) dans le cadre de l'Error Forcing Context (EFC). (Groth & Mosleh, 2012) présente des idées similaires en utilisant le terme Contextes d'erreur (EC).…”

“…Il est défini comme des combinaisons particulières des PSFs créant un environnement dans lequel les actions dangereuses sont plus susceptibles de se produire. Dans les deux approches, (Groth & Mosleh, 2012) et ATHEANA (S. E. Cooper et al, 1996), il est recommandé d'utiliser une approche appropriée pour présenter les PSFs comme des éléments pour faciliter l'utilisation du modèle. Dans notre travail nous utilisons le terme contexte d'erreur pour designer de tels sous ensembles de PSFs.…”

RésuméDans ce papier, nous présentons un cadre formel d'analyse de la fiabilité humaine (HRA) afin de quantifier les erreurs humaines dans le domaine ferroviaire. Les fonctions critiques de sécurité et leurs facteurs contextuels sont identifiés à partir d'études de PSF (Performance Shaping Factors). Ainsi, nous utilisons la théorie des fonctions de croyance et les systèmes VBS (Valuation-based systems) pour construire un cadre probabiliste de quantification. La prise en compte et le traitement de tous les types d'incertitudes sont également représentés. Les relations formelles entre les PSF et les erreurs humaines sont modélisées à partir de données d'experts pour implémenter la partie quantitative du modèle. Elles sont basées sur la capitalisation de connaissances d'experts pour construire les éléments causals de modélisation de l'erreur humaine. AbstractWe present a formal framework of human reliability analysis (HRA) to quantify human errors for railway domain. The safety critical human functions and their contextual factors are identified from domain specific human factors studies and studies on safety critical PSFs. We use Belief functions theory and Valuation based systems for a probabilistic framework of quantification. A formal relation between those functions and the context are modeled using data from expert elicitation. The proposed approach uses expert elicited data to build the human error-causation elements. Appropriate representation and handling of all types of uncertainties is considered through the proposed quantification methodology.

“…Even in the context of techniques of human reliability assessment (which have strong affinities with the techniques described here) where evidence of the dependability of the system is a primary focus, few tools have been developed that support the whole process. Consider the examples of ATHEANA [8] and CREAM [13], the ability to trace the application of the technique and to provide evidence of how the method is applied is an important requirement of regulators.…”

This paper is concerned with support for the process of usability engineering. The aim is to use formal techniques to provide a systematic approach that is more traceable, and because it is systematic, repeatable. As a result of this systematic process some of the more subjective aspects of the analysis can be removed. The technique explores exhaustively those features of a specific design that fail to satisfy a set of properties. It also analyzes those aspects of the design where it is possible to quantify the cost of use. The method is illustrated using the example of a medical device. While many aspects of the approach and its tool support have already been discussed elsewhere, this paper builds on and contrasts an analysis of the same device provided by a third party and in so doing enhances the IVY tool.
