Abstract

In this work a new approach to the study of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) task is described from Systemic-Structural Activity Theory perspectives. Inventory receiving task that includes HCI has been selected to demonstrate the new method of analysis and new design principles. Computers are relatively new means of work mediating tasks performance in various types of production processes. One of the specific features of such tasks is a combination of mental and manual components of work. Due to its complexity and variability algorithmic description of task performance is suggested. A combination of qualitative and formalized methods of task analysis is presented. The main objective of this work is to explore the application of the systemic-structural activity theory to the study of computer based task.
