TL;DR: The ISF was the first institutional endeavor of humanitarian engineering in France and has led to an original approach towards engineering ethics and a wider concern about the social responsibility of engineers, as embodied in the concept of the "citizen engineer".
Abstract: This paper discusses about the French non-governmental organization (NGO) "Ingenieurs Sans Fronfieres" (ISF) which was the first institutional endeavor of humanitarian engineering in France. The group's manifold difficulties and a profound identity crisis have prompted significant debates in the organization about humanitarian ethics and the role of technology in society. These debates, in turn, have led to an original approach towards engineering ethics and a wider concern about the social responsibility of engineers, as embodied in the concept of the "citizen engineer".

TL;DR: This work adopts a complementarist approach: it uses different models of human cognition and behavior for each aspect of complex system design, and lists here which models it uses and how.
Abstract: Complex system design is about technical specifications, but also how humans act in the loop in Dissemination, Operation, Maintenance and Evolution (DOME) of the system. In system specification, we focus on distribution of work between humans and systems. In design of system's DOME, on building an ecology of individual motives, organizational rules and mediating structures to keep the system sustainable. In our participative design process itself, on how to enroll and maintain test users in realistic experiments. We adopt a complementarist approach: we use different models of human cognition and behavior for each aspect. Human behavior is determined by many factors including subject's motives and goals, constraints and affordances of the context. We list here which models we use and how.
