Modelling infrastructures as socio-technical systems
The conceptualization of the notion of a system in systems engineering, as exemplified in, for instance, the engineering standard IEEE Std 1220-1998, is problematic when applied to the design of socio-technical systems. This is argued using Intelligent Transportation Systems as an example. A preliminary conceptualization of socio-technical systems is introduced which includes technical and soci...
متن کاملSocio-Technical Approaches to Risk Assessment in National Critical Infrastructures
Deregulation has created new market pressures for innovation across many national infrastructures. This, in turn, creates complex interdependencies. For example, in previous years both the US and European energy markets relied upon vertical integration. The same companies that generated the power were also, typically, responsible for its transmission to consumers. This market structure creates ...

متن کاملDiagnosing reliability problems in Socio-technical Systems: A Visualisation approach
This paper presents a visualisation approach of socio-technical system design evaluation based on human reliability. Bayesian Belief networks are used to assess human error and system failure (Sutcliffe et al. 1999) based on a variety of high-level operational scenarios. The System Reliability Analyser tool automates the process by iteratively manipulating the BBN model, presenting the analyst ...
متن کاملInternational Norms and Socio-technical Systems: Connecting Institutional and Technological Infrastructures in Governance Processes
This paper looks at the challenges posed by ICT critical infrastructures in their interaction with governance processes. The authors argue that, in order to develop better understanding of how (global) governing arrangements are made in a highly mediatised environment, adequate frameworks should be elaborated to study the interrelation between institutional and technological infrastructures. In...
