AbstractAbstract
[en] The Jefferson Lab Accelerator Controls Environment (ACE) was predominantly based on the HP-UX Unix platform from 1987 through the summer of 2004. During this period the Accelerator Machine Control Center (MCC) underwent a major renovation which included introducing Redhat Enterprise Linux machines, first as specialized process servers and then gradually as general login servers. As computer programs and scripts required to run the accelerator were modified, and inherent problems with the HP-UX platform compounded, more development tools became available for use with Linux and the MCC began to be converted over. In May 2008 the last HP-UX Unix login machine was removed from the MCC, leaving only a few Unix-based remote-login servers still available. This presentation will explore the process of converting an operational Control Room environment from the HP-UX to Linux platform as well as the many hurdles that had to be overcome throughout the transition period

AbstractAbstract
[en] A new Main Control Room (MCR) has been built to control the accelerators of the AGS Complex. A new physical environment was produced to better control light, sound, temperature, and traffic. New control consoles were built around the work-stations that make up the distributed control system. Equipment placement within consoles and console placement within the room reflect attention to the ''human factors'' needs of the operator. 1 ref., 2 figs

AbstractAbstract
[en] This Standard addresses the central control room of a nuclear power generating station and the overall complex in which this room is housed. It is not intended to cover special or normally unattended control rooms, such as those provided for radioactive waste handling or for emergency shutdown operations. The nuclear power generating station control room complex provides a protective envelope for plant operating personnel and for instrument and control equipment vital to the operation of the plant during normal and abnormal conditions. In this capacity, the control room complex must be designed and constructed to meet the following criteria contained in Appendix A of 10CFR50, General Design criteria for Nuclear Power Plants: (1) Criterion 2: design bases for protection against natural phenomena; (2) Criterion 3: fire protection; (3) Criterion 4: environmental and missile design bases; (4) Criterion 5: sharing of structures, systems and components (multiunit stations only); and (5) Criterion 19: control room

AbstractAbstract
[en] A brief description of a typical French 900 MW nuclear power plant control room is given and the ergonomic modifications are discussed. To deal with post-accident situations, a safety panel is integrated into the system. The main features of the 1300 MW control room are described. Some recommendations are made concerning future control room design

AbstractAbstract
[en] There is mounting evidence that complex computer system displays in control rooms contribute to cognitive complexity and, thus, to the probability of human error. Research shows that reaction time increases and response accuracy decreases as the number of elements in the display screen increase. However, in terms of supporting the control room operator, approaches focusing on addressing display complexity solely in terms of information density and its location and patterning, will fall short of delivering a properly designed interface. This paper argues that information complexity and semantic complexity are mandatory components when considering display complexity and that the addition of these concepts assists in understanding and resolving differences between designers and the preferences and performance of operators. This paper concludes that a number of simplified methods, when combined, can be used to estimate the impact that a particular display may have on the operator's ability to perform a function accurately and effectively. We present a mixed qualitative and quantitative approach and a method for complexity estimation

AbstractAbstract
[en] Highlights: • This study confirmed that this NX model is a successful inclusive design tool. • This paper confirmed that the NX model will eliminate design errors. • This design method will cut down design time and substantially reduce costs. • It was found that this model is capable of adapting itself to rapid change in market demand. - Abstract: A nuclear main control room (MCR) is a crucial part of a nuclear power plant (NPP) where qualified staffs are monitoring and controlling the function and productivity of the whole plant. In a safely operated NPP, the performance of MCR personnel is critical. A properly designed MCR and human-system interface (HSI) is central to safe and efficient operations of the plant, since it reduces the occurrence of incidents, accidents and the risks of human related errors; thus, the physical characteristics of the users must be considered in the design of the MCR, taking into account the height and size of those users. The design of large display panels, control consoles, vertical control panels, and machinery rooms must be adequately designed, and the application of the anthropometric principles in all design stages of the MCR is crucial. When human anthropometry is taken into considerations in the design process, the MCR suits better the capabilities and limitations of the operators. During the design process, manufacturers and designers should consider the sizes, shapes, abilities, and constraints of the people for whom they are designing the MCR since anthropometric data varies significantly between different communities in various geographical territories.
