MANAGING PRODUCTION COMPLEXITY BY SUPPORTING COGNITIVE PROCESSES IN FINAL ASSEMBLY

• Managing complexity in final assembly includes understanding andsupporting the operators cognitive processes. In this paper three models forinformation handling and decision-making are combined. The relevance and use ofthe combined behavioural characteristics are discussed in industrial and experimentalcases. The cases show how cognitive processes is investigated and supported tomanage production complexity, thereby increasing operator performance anddecreasing cost.
