Abstract :
Human-intensive cyber-physical systems involve software applications and hardware devices, but also depend upon the expertise of human participants to achieve their goal. In this paper. we describe a project we have started to improve the effectiveness of such systems by providing Smart Checklists to support and guide human participants in carrying out their tasks, including their interactions with the devices and software applications.
