Paper Abstract:      Conceiving human interfaces is typically a user-centered process conducted by a multidisciplinary team, which accounts for the user profile (characteristics, interests, abilities, behaviour patterns) together with functional and contextual aspects. When designing human interfaces for industrial systems, where human errors might result in serious losses involving materials or human lives, one must also consider the knowledge of the human characteristics associated to the occurrence of errors. This paper presents a programmable user model (operator model) built using Colored Petri Nets, to support the study of human errors in safety critical systems. This model was built and fine-tuned according to a corpus consisting of ten years of human error reports related to incidents and accidents in the electricity industry. The model was built to support the investigation of the relation between the work context and the human error in industrial systems, more specifically in the electricity industry.
