The complex systems can involve teams or individuals working on real-time tasks where a number of constraints must be satisfied. Decision Making in Complex Environments addresses the role of the human, the technology and the processes in complex socio-technical and technological systems UR - https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/buse-ebooks/detail.action?docID=429567 ER -
