FRAM: The Functional Resonance Analysis Method (eBook, ePUB)

Modelling Complex Socio-technical Systems

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

There has not yet been a comprehensive method that goes behind 'human error' and beyond the failure concept, and various complicated accidents have accentuated the need for it. The Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) fulfils that need. This book presents a detailed and tested method that can be used to model how complex and dynamic socio-technical systems work, and understand both why things sometimes go wrong but also why they normally succeed.
