Abstract :
The man-machine interface requirements prepared by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) as part of the Utility Requirements Document for advanced light water reactors (ALWRs) are described. The objectives and the approach taken in developing the requirements are discussed. An overview of the design process requirements is given, and the approach and the principal features of the main control room are described. Key issues in the development of the man-machine interface designs for ALWRs are outlined.<>
