Ironies of Automation

Ironies of Automation is a research paper written by Lisanne Bainbridge and published in Automatica in 1983, and has been widely recognized as a pioneering statement of the problems inherent in automation.[1] Barry Strauch analyzes the paper's significance, observing that by November 2016 it had attracted 1800 citations, far beyond other influential works on the topic, and that "The number of citations of Bainbridge’s work, large as it is, is also increasing at a considerable rate."[2] Retrospectives on "Ironies of Automation" and its significance have appeared in both IEEE and ACM publications.[3]
