Book excerpt: "This report summarizes an investigation of the high skill level requirements found in missile systems employing automatic electronic test and checkout equipment. Automation has not resulted in lowering manpower demands because (1) testing and maintenance requirements and objectives have not been systematically defined and (2) manual operations have not been completely described or programmed. A "maintenance system" design approach is outlined as a method for overcoming these deficiencies. Further research is recommended in development of techniques for evaluating the design of test logic, maintenance operations, and manual tasks."--Abstract.
