HF-STD-001 (W/ UPDATES THROUGH OCT 2009), HUMAN FACTORS DESIGN STANDARD (HFDS) FOR ACQUISITION OF COMMERCIAL OFF-THE-SHELF (COTS) SUBSYSTEMS, NON-DEVELOPMENTAL ITEMS (NDI), AND DEVELOPMENTAL SYSTEMS (MAY 2003)

HF-STD-001 (W/ UPDATES THROUGH OCT 2009), HUMAN FACTORS DESIGN STANDARD (HFDS) FOR ACQUISITION OF COMMERCIAL OFF-THE-SHELF (COTS) SUBSYSTEMS, NON-DEVELOPMENTAL ITEMS (NDI), AND DEVELOPMENTAL SYSTEMS (MAY 2003)., The Human Factors Design Standard (HFDS) provides reference information to assist in the selection, analysis, design, development, and evaluation of new and modified Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) systems and equipment. This document is based largely on the 1996 Human Factors Design Guide (HFDG) produced by the FAA in 1996. It converts the original guidelines document to a standard and incorporates updated information, including the newly revised chapters on automation and human-computer interface. The updated document includes extensive reorganization of material based on user feedback on how the document has been used in the past. Additional information has been also been added to help the users better understand tradeoffs involved with specific design criteria. This standard covers a broad range of human factors topics that pertain to automation, maintenance, displays and printers, controls and visual indicators, alarms, alerts and voice output, input devices, workplace design, system security, safety, the environment, and anthropometry documentation. This document also includes extensive human-computer interface information.
