Human Factors in Computer Systems

This volume contains chapters by investigators of issues in the human factors of computing systems. Issues include social factors of computing systems, the overall view of the system by users, how users learn about complex systems, the influence of dialogue, menu, and command language structures on user behaviour, and the effectiveness of various kinds of graphical displays. Chapters explore what makes programs and programming complex, and what cognitve structures programmers use to simplify the task and investigate various documentation options.

Reliability in Computer System Design

This volume covers wide areas of interest such as life cycle costing, microcomputers, common-cause failures and space computers. Every effort is made to present difficult material with the aid of an example along with its solution. The material covered is summarized at the end of each chapter. The information is written in a format that allows readers to learn and better understand the philosophy of reliability in computer system design. At the same time, it tests their comprehension through listed exercises.

The hardware initiates an interrupt in the event when it detects a “dropped” bit
and subsequently an appropriate action is taken by the operating system.
However memory problems may also be caused by power failures and surges.
