Abstract

The defining feature of the human species has always been that we employ technology to interact with nature. The modern case of human-computer interaction provides five distinct research and development approaches that could be applied to any field of engineering: (1) ergonomics, (2) cognitive modeling, (3) user-centered design, (4) value-sensitive design, and (5) technical culture. The felicitous “symphony orchestra” metaphor for social-technical systems also identifies widely applicable principles: (1) division of labor, (2) a harmony of scientific concepts, (3) the need for significant human expertise, (4) social cohesion of teams, (5) human guidance, and (6) properly defined general principles for decision making. Humanity may have reached a technological watershed at which the basis of much of the economy shifts from physical objects to information, but in any case innovation, will require new collaborations between fields of expertise, in service of human well-being.
