In this system, ¿Man¿ refers to working people as the subject in the workplace (e.g. operators, decision-makers); ¿Machine¿ is the general name for any object controlled by Man (including tools, machinery, computers, systems and technologies), and ¿Environment¿ describes the specific working conditions under which Man and Machine interact (e.g. temperature, noise, vibration, hazardous gases etc.). The three goals of optimization are to ensure "Safety, High efficiency and Economy" of man-machine-environment systems.These proceedings are an academic showcase of the best papers selected from more than 400 submissions, introducing readers to the top research topics and the latest developmental trends in the theory and application of MMESE.These proceedings are interdisciplinary studies on the concepts and methods of physiology, psychology, system engineering, computer science, environment science, management, education, and other related disciplines.
