Cognitive and Organisational Systems Engineering
Overview

The Cognitive and Organisational Systems Engineering (COSE) project started at the end of 2008. The goal of the COSE project is to develop better techniques and tools for evaluating the integration between people, the ICT systems that they use, and the environments in which they work. We are developing our tools initially in the domains of healthcare and air traffic management.

COSE is made up of three sub-projects, listed below. For further information please click these links or equivalent links in menu at left.
