HoliDes Final Event

The HoliDes Final Event will be hosted by Airbus Defence and Space in Friedrichshafen, Germany, on September 29th. The event celebrates the conclusion of the HoliDes project where 31 partners from the industry, research institutes and universities in seven European countries investigated in an innovative Human Factors engineering process that can be embedded into traditional System Engineering processes to develop safety critical systems.

HoliDes @ the 32nd EEAP conference

Two HoliDes articles are going to be presented at the 32nd Conference of the European Association for Aviation Psychology (EEAP), in Cascais, Portugal, on September 26-30, 2016 (http://conference.eaap.net/). The first one is signed by partner HFC Human-Factors-Consult GmbH: "Break it down! A practitioner’s software tool for Human Factors Task Analysis and Human Error Identification", about the concept and application of a software tool develped within the HoliDes project for task analysis and human error identification.

HoliDes @ AHFE2016 (the 7th International Conference on Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics)

Two HoliDes works have been presented at the 7th International Conference on Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics (AHFE 2016, http://www.ahfe2016.org/) in Orlando, 27-31 July 2016. The first article is entitled " Implementation of Human System Integration into the System Engineering Lifecycle and Model Based System Engineering at Airbus Defence and Space", by Robert Sharples from Airbus Defence and Space UK.

The OSLC Human Factors User Group

The Human Factors User Group (http://open-services.net/wiki/human-factors/) has been created by the HoliDes project partners to the aim of discussing within the OSLC (Open Service for Lifecycle Collaboration) community the integration of lifecycle human factors tools in the system development process. The Human Factors User Group main goal is indeed to explore and to understand the integration scenarios that would improve traceability between human factors related work and traditional engineering data.

HoliDes presented to ETSI Human Factors Technical Committee

During the ETSI meeting of the Technical Committee Human Factors, Martin Böcker from Airbus Defence and Space presented the work carried out in HoliDes about the Airbus Control Room AdCoS and the proximity-based interaction technologies employed in that AdCoS.
The HoliDes results presented by Martin have been appreciated by the Technical Committee. They will consider the experiences gained by the HoliDes work if and when they update the ETSI Guide on roadmaps for novel interaction technologies (ETSI EG 202 848 V1.1.1 (2011-02), www.etsi.org).

HoliDes achievements will be presented at the 6th International Conference on Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics (AFHE2015)

Two papers about HoliDes achievements will be presented at the 6th International Conference on Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics (AFHE2015) : (1) "Implementation of Human System Integration (HSI) and ‘non-functional characteristics’ into the systems engineering lifecycle - A practical approach at Airbus Defence and Space", by Robert Sharples, and (2) "Enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of control room operators – A roadmap-based approach for selecting interaction technologies for defence and safety-critical organisations and industries", by Martin Boecker.

Call for papers the session on Intelligent Cooperative Driving, and Autonomous Connected Vehicles

Invitation for paper submission for the session on Intelligent Cooperative Driving, and Autonomous Connected Vehicles (ICD & ACV 2015) in the context of the 2015 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS 2015); this is very cross-domain! The deadline for the full paper review is February, 17. Special Session on Intelligent Cooperative Driving, and Autonomous Connected Vehicles (ICD & ACV 2015)

Consortium meeting in Berlin

Holides consortium meeting will be held in Berlin hosted by TAKATA
from: March, 11 (Wednesday) 13:30 till Friday, 13.3. 16:00

The day *before* the Consortium Meeting will be the ARTEMIS Co-Summit (also in Berlin) that HoliDes will participate (like all ARTEMIS projects) with a booth (from March 10th 9:00 till March 11th 16:00).

Workshop about ProSIVIC and RTMaps

From Oct. 15th to Oct 17th 2014, more than 20 engineers and researchers from the HOLIDES consortium (CRF, TWT, ATOS, OFFIS, IBEO, HONEYWELL, etc.) attended a workshop in Paris at La Cité Internationale dedicated on two software tools, ProSIVIC and RTMaps, respectively provided by CIVITEC and INTEMPORA. These tools will used for the developments, tests and software integration of various AdCoS in the frame of the project.

Holides Third General Assembly Naples (Italy)

The third technical meeting of the HoliDes project took place in Naples, at the Suor Orsola Benincasa University, from May 7th to May 9th 2014. The first day was devoted to the "Tool Workshop" event. Each tool vendor first introduced his tool briefly to all project partners in the plenary meeting room. After that, the participants moved to the workshop area where the vendors had a stand and, where needed, a table for laptop demos.

Artemis co-summit

In the capital of Sweden – Stockholm – the sixth edition of the annual Co-summit took place! On 4 & 5 December in the Scandic Infra Business Center. Holides participated for the fist time in the ARTEMIS Co-Summit. Holides presented its project ideas and challenges to several audiences and interested individual persons. One of the groups that Holides consortium presented the project to, was the ARTEMIS steering board
