A Methodology for Allocating Functions to People and Machines in Manufacturing Systems

这项工作将调查一种方法的可行性， 将功能分配给制造系统中的人和/或机器 根据要执行的任务的要求和 每个系统的能力。 该方法将涉及以下分类： 任务特征和hyman特征分类， 用于执行这些任务的机器系统。 的努力 涉及跨学科的方法，因为它将整合 任务型柔性制造系统技术现状 人因工程领域的分析方法。 目标 将这两种技术的相关文献进行整合， 并建立一种方法的可行性， 具有人类和/或机器人能力的功能要求。

This effort will investigate the feasibility of a methodology to allocate functions to people and/or machines in manufacturing systems based upon the requirements of the tasks to be performed and the capability of each system. The methodology will involve a taxonomy of task characteristics and a taxonomy of characteristics of hyman and machine systems that are used to perform those tasks. The effort involves a cross-disciplinary approach in that it will integrate the technical state-of-the-art in flexible manufacturing systems with task analysis methods from the field of human factors engineering. The goal of the effort is to integrate the literatures from these two technicl areas and establish the feasibility of a methodology to match functional requirements with human and/or robotic capabilities.
