Summary
This contribution presents a concept and an analysis of system and functional requirements for a database management system for neuroinformatics data (NIDB). The basic idea of NIDB is to allow to collect and interchange biomedical and associated data among research groups working on several projects in the field of neuro-informatics and HMI. The main aim of NIDB is to collect the output data measured in the projects, to allow to organize and annotate them, to provide an arbitrary selected subset of data to further analysis or research, and lastly, to merge the results with original data. As the research is in progress on several locations, NIDB is designed to work in a distributed environment.

1. Introduction
Despite the fast development in the field of engineering and artificial intelligence, the machine control remains solely a human task. Unlike the machine, the human being is much more influenced by their environment - for instance they are strongly liable to weariness (fatigue) or accidental loss of concentration. These factors cause that the human operator still remains the weakest link in the human-machine interaction.A typical representative of an operator in a human-machine system is a driver of a ground vehicle. The statistics has proven that the significant amount of traffic accidents has been caused by insufficient attention paid to the traffic situation by the driver. One of the most common causes of decreased attention is fatigue and its probably most serious consequence, microsleep.The vigilance, attention and sleep ...See the full content of this document
