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 ...
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 ...
A Framework for an HSI Downselection Tool
(MIT Humans and Automation Laboratory, 2009)
This technical report describes the concept and development of SITHE, the Systems Integration
Tool for HSI Evaluation. SITHE is a framework for selecting tools to be used in evaluating
complex technical systems in terms ...
Assessing the Impact of Haptic Peripheral Displays for UAV Operators
(MIT Humans and Automation Laboratory, 2008)
Objectives: A pilot study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of continuous haptic
peripheral displays in supporting multiple UAV supervisory control. Background: Previous
research shows that continuous ...
Decision Support Design for Workload Mitigation in Human Supervisory Control of Multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
(MIT Humans and Automation Laboratory, 2006)
As UAVs become increasingly autonomous, the multiple personnel currently required to operate
a single UAV may eventually be superseded by a single operator concurrently managing
multiple UAVs. Instead of lower-level tasks ...
Information Requirements for MCM and ISR Missions : PUMA Phase II
(MIT Humans and Automation Laboratory, 2007)
This document contains display requirements for Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) control
station displays to be used by unmanned vehicle units in support of heterogeneous
unmanned vehicle missions (such as Special Operations ...
Interface Design for Unmanned Vehicle Supervision through Hybrid Cognitive Task Analysis
(HFES, 2012-10)
While there is currently significant interest in developing Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) that can be supervised by a single operator, the majority of these systems focus on Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance
(ISR) ...
