To do this successfully, they must have the necessary tools to manage situations. This book provides a broad and comprehensive approach to developing a working solution to the situation management problem, including a comprehensive way of looking at control room management and understanding the field of control room operations. It discusses the technology and tools, as well as effective methodologies for safer and more productive control room operations, which lead to improved industrial production. Two key discussions are how human nature (of operators) affects the ability to perform, and how to use the concept and technology of weak signals to supplement the alarm system for situation awareness.
