introduction: macro-ergonomics is an important factor that affects behavior, favorable performance and personnel’s efficiency that can cause conformity of employees by increasing labor and efficiency and in result decreasing employees’ stress amount. the aim of the present study was to investigate relationship between macro-ergonomics and occupational stress in employees working in one casting ...

This paper proposes a general principle to adapt the reactions of a rational dialogue agent to a user by taking into account this user's profile. Based on the theory of interaction, the model we introduce first represents the knowledge the user has on his search domain. In a second time, this model implements agent behaviour rules based on experimental results in cognitive ergonomy. We illustra...

This article deals with the use of computers to carry out musicological practices which rely on scores segmentation and charting. We present a document model which allows to conduct complete multimedia (synchronization), efficient (spatial organization control, segmentation, material and logical document structuration) and semantic (annotations, hyperlinks) analysis, and propose an experimental...

We investigate the beneets of using a synchronous data-ow language for programming critical real-time systems. These beneets concern ergonomy | since the dataaow approach meets traditional description tools used in this domain |, and ability to support formal design and veriication methods. We show, on a simple example, how the language Lustre and its associated veriication tool Lesar, can be u...

Detecting collisions and calculating physically correct collision responses play an important role when simulating the dynamics of colliding rigid bodies. Virtual reality applications such as virtual assembly planning and ergonomy studies can especially profit from advances in these directions, because they enable an interactive and intuitive manipulation of objects in virtual environments. Thi...

We identified design problems related to the architecture, ergonomy, and performance in the previous version of the Image Processing on Line (IPOL) demonstration system. In order to correct them we moved to an architecture of microservices and performed many refactorings. This article first describes the state of the art in Reproducible Research platforms and explains IPOL in that context. The ...
