The exchange of experiences from related efforts in other domains involving complex, human-technical systems would also be most useful. Main Topics The main topics of interest are: Status and results from current, on-going HRA data programs in simulator facilities Aims and status of HRA data collection efforts being planned in member countries Lessons learned from past efforts in HRA data collection Advances in the analysis of simulator data for HRA purposes HRA data needs The workshop will additionally include opportunities to discuss and provide inputs for the planning of a future OECD HRA Data Collection (and Exchange) Project.
