The 60th birthday of Prof. Luczak is the reason for this book. He will be honoured for his research work during the 'GfA-confernece' in March 2009. This book is the correspondig 'Festschrift' for him.

Christopher M. Schlick is Professor of Engineering at RWTH Aachen University and head of the Institute of Industrial Engineering and Ergonomics. He is also a member of the management board of the FGAN Research Institute for Communication, Information Processing and Ergonomics (FKIE). His research interests include modeling and simulation of work and business systems as well as the ergonomic design of human-machine interfaces.
