HuFaMo

International Workshop on Human Factors in Modeling / Modeling of Human Factors

Description

Studying human factors and experiences in modelling helps improve knowledge of the modelling process, the adoption of modelling, the optimisation of system outcomes, and user well-being. Incorporating human aspects into the early stages of software engineering processes is essential to better support stakeholders, including end users.

The HuFaMo workshop was established in 2015 to promote this form of research by creating a venue for discussing and disseminating these topics. The workshop originally aimed to study human factors in software systems, allowing humans to model. The first four editions of the workshop enabled significant progress on this issue. In 2021, we expanded the workshop’s scope to include modelling human factors in software design. This helps to study all types of relationships that modeling and human factors can have “and their impact on processes, products, and end-users as well as others that might be affected by the system”.

Thanks to the previous editions of HuFaMo, a community of researchers and practitioners has formed and has broadened the foothold of human factors research in the Model-based engineering community. In the next editions, we aim to strengthen this community by continuing to share experiences through proposals and reports on human factors in modelling and design, as well as modelling and design of human factors. HuFaMo invites reports of completed research, work in progress with promising early results, and proposals for study designs.
