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 ...
Brainstem processing of vestibular sensory exafference: implications for motion sickness etiology
(Springer, 2014-04-20)
The origin of the internal “sensory conflict” stimulus causing motion sickness has been debated for more than four decades. Recent studies show a subclass of neurons in the vestibular nuclei and deep cerebellar nuclei ...
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 ...
Operator Performance in Long Duration Control Operations: Switching from Low to High Task Load
(HFES, 2012-10)
Long duration, low task load environments are typical for nuclear power plant control rooms, where operators, after hours of operating under a low task load situation, may have to shift to a high task load situation. The ...
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. ...
Global vs. local decision support for multiple independent UAV schedule management
(International Journal of Applied Decision Science, 2010)
As unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) become increasingly autonomous, time-critical and complex single-operator systems will require advance prediction and mitigation of schedule conflicts. However, actions that
mitigate a ...
SPICES: spectro-polarimetric imaging and characterization of exoplanetary systems.
(Experimental Astronomy, 2012-10)
SPICES (Spectro-Polarimetric Imaging and Characterization of Exoplanetary Systems) is a five-year M-class mission proposed to ESA Cosmic Vision. Its purpose is to image and characterize long-period extrasolar planets and ...
Market share model for a multi-airport system
(Cambridge : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Flight Transportation Laboratory, ©1993, ©1993)
Because capacity at existing airports was limited and/or because the cost of congestion was becoming unacceptable, several large cities around the world have had to build a second or third major commercial airport to keep ...
