Partitioning Complexity in Air Traffic Management Task
(International Journal of Aviation Psychology, 2006)
Cognitive complexity is a term that appears frequently in air traffic control (ATC) research literature, yet there is little principled investigation of the potential sources of cognitive complexity. Three distinctly ...
Automation Architecture for Single Operator, Multiple UAV Command and Control,
(The International Command and Control Journal, 2007)
In light of the Office of the Secretary Defense’s Roadmap for unmanned aircraft systems (UASs), there is a critical need for research examining human interaction with heterogeneous unmanned vehicles. The OSD Roadmap clearly ...
Identifying Predictive Metrics for Supervisory Control of Multiple Robots
(IEEE Transactions on Robotics, 2007)
In recent years, much research has focused on making possible single operator control of multiple robots. In these high workload situations, many questions arise including how many robots should be in the team, which ...
Operator Scheduling Strategies in Supervisory Control of Multiple UAVs
(Aerospace Science and Technology, 2007)
The application of network centric operations to time-constrained command and control environments
will mean that human operators will be increasingly responsible for multiple simultaneous supervisory
control tasks. One ...
Predicting Controller Capacity in Remote Supervision of Multiple Unmanned Vehicles
(IEEE, 2008)
In the future vision of allowing a single operator to remotely control multiple unmanned vehicles, it is not well understood what cognitive constraints limit how many vehicles and related tasks a single operator can manage. ...
Physical characteristics and occurrence rates of meteoric plasma layers detected in the Martian ionosphere by the Mars Global Surveyor Radio Science Experiment
(American Geophysical Union, 2008-12-30)
Low-altitude plasma layers are present in 71 of 5600 electron density profiles from the Martian ionosphere obtained by the Mars Global Surveyor Radio Science experiment. These layers are produced by the ablation of meteoroids ...
Effects of Single versus Multiple Warnings on Driver Performance
(2007)
Objective: To explore how a single master alarm system affects drivers’ responses when compared to multiple, distinct warnings. Background: Advanced driver warning systems are intended to improve safety, yet inappropriate ...
Radio science measurements of atmospheric refractivity with Mars Global Surveyor
(American Geophysical Union, 2006-05-20)
Radio occultation experiments with Mars Global Surveyor measure the refractive index of the Martian atmosphere from the surface to ~250 km in geopotential height. Refractivity is proportional to neutral density at low ...
Analysis of Dual Consistency for Discontinuous Galerkin Discretizations of Source Terms
(Aerospace Computational Design Laboratory, Dept. of Aeronautics & Astronautics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006-09)
The effects of dual consistency on discontinuous Galerkin (DG) discretizations of solution
and solution gradient dependent source terms are examined. Two common discretizations are
analyzed: the standard weighting technique ...
Anisotropic Grid Adaptation for Multiple Aerodynamic Outputs
(Aerospace Computational Design Laboratory, Dept. of Aeronautics & Astronautics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007-08)
Anisotropic grid–adaptive strategies are presented for viscous flow simulations in which the accurate prediction of multiple aerodynamic outputs (such as the lift, drag, and moment coefficients) is required from a single ...
