Considerations in microcircuit visual inspection
Abstracts
Visual processes in man
To provide readers of Applied Ergonomics with a selection of current ergonomics literature likely to be of direct practical value, abstracts are published selected from the collection held at the Ergonomics Information Analysis Centre. These abstracts are classified in a similar manner to the main articles in the journal; for easy reference, the code number at the head of each abstract (eg 1.1.21) consists of the volume number, part or issue number and a sequential abstract number.
7.4.4 (69611) Crowe, B.L. Design criteria for microfiche readers.
The published abstracts are only a selection of the Centre's material and readers concerned with specific areas are invited to contact the Centre for further information. Those readers unable to obtain copies of the original articles abstracted here through their usual sources, such as company librarian, may obtain photocopies from the Centre. Details of this service are available from The Ergonomics Information Analysis Centre, Department of Engineering Production, University of Birmingham, POBox 363, Birmingham 15. Tel. 021 472 1301.

Commission of the European Communities, General Directorate 'Social Affairs'. Reliability and Safety. Factors for the ergonomics of systems in an industrial environment. Studies of'Industrial
Physiology and Psychology, Study No 7, The Commission, Luxembourg, 1972, 267 pp. The book explains certain methods of analysis and interpretation concerning the reliability of manmachine systems and hence industrial safety. The researchers who have prepared these methods consider that they can help to improve accident prevention and working conditions in general; they are therefore addressed to practical men, production personnel, in the hope of arousing their interest. However, such men must not expect to find instant solutions enabling them to overcome any problems of industrial life without further effort. Discussion meetings between researchers and practicianers are essential.

Kongress fur Arbeitsschutz und Arbeitsmedizin 1973 in Dusseldorf). (In German.) The Society, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, 1974, 558 pp; abstr in CIS Abstracts (CIS 75-1794). These proceedings contain the papers presented in three parallel sessions at the 13th Congress on Occupational Safety and Health, held from 3 to 6 Oct 1973 in Dusseldorf. Session A deals with the implications of

the German dangerous substances ordinance and with occupational safety and health problems of women and foreign workers. Session B deals with lasers, explosions, in-plant transport, liquefied petroleum gas on building sites, integration of safety, accident research, and noise problems. Session C deals in particular with the integration of health protection, ergonomics, and other medical problems (heart and circulatory diseases, asbestosis, noiseinduced deafness, chromate eczema, vibration disease).

Written in collaboration with a team of well-known specialists in the field, this book, intended for management, provides basic information on work organization and workplace design. Contents: workplace design (anthropometric data; working space; physical work; work seated and standing; control panels, control cabins for machinery and plant; tools and implements); work environment (climatic comfort conditions, effects of noise and their prevention, lighting, colour schemes); work organization (preparation, analysis,
distribution, duration, output); evaluation of work and remuneration; occupational safety and health (safety analysis, inspection, safety training, personal protective equipment, first aid, preventive medical examinations, harmful agents, occupational diseases); principles and methods of management; training; legal status of undertakings and labour law.
Applied Ergonomics December 1976
Paper presented at the Ergonomics Society of A ustralia and New Zealand Twelfth Annual Conference, Spring Hill, Brisbane, Australia, 5 6 August 1975, 4 pp. This paper attempts to examine some of the problems facing a user in the selection of an adequate microfiche reader for office use. The author lists some of the design faults of current equipments, suggests reaso.ns why these faults exist and recommends the use of applied ergonomic techniques in the design of a suitable microfiche reader.

Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (Report No AD-AO 12197; RADC-TR-75-150). Microcircuit visual inspection is examined primarily from a human factors standpoint. A brief description is given of the equipment used, relative to the parameters of greatest concern. Effects of complexity, defect rate, magnification, visual angle of the defect, contrast and vigilance on inspection accuracy are discussed. Finally, inspection effectiveness is discussed and a model developed by researchers at Sandia Laboratories is given.

With the trend toward microminiaturization in the electronics industry, the development of predetermined time standards for microscopic work has become an important area in work measurement. In conjunction with the development of the MTM-Magnification system, a laboratory study of work under a stereo microscope revealed no differences in performance time due to magnification levels of 3"5, 9-25 and 15X. The simulated task was broken down into elements of reach plus grasp, move plus position, and tap target, and the average time for each element could be
