...confidence that a system is reliable. there is an increasing recognition that human aspects of these systems often underlie their vulnerability to failure. human reliability assessment techniques have therefore been a particular focus for development. this short tutorial describes and illustrates techniques for human reliability assessment (hra). these techniques are compared with interaction, and usability, engineering techniques. hra techniques are difficult...
