  1. 1. Quantifying Operability of Working Machines

    Author : Reno Filla; Jan-Ove Palmberg; Kjell Ohlsson; Jonas Larsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Operability; machine harmony; operator workload; control effort; simulation; operator model; human operator; working machines; construction equipment; wheel loaders; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : In working machines the human operator is essential for the performance of the total system. Productivity and energy efficiency are both dependent not only on inherent machine properties and working place conditions, but also on how the operator manoeuvres the machine. READ MORE

  2. 2. Transparency for future semi-automated systems : effects of transparency on operator performance, workload and trust

    Author : Tove Helldin; Göran Falkman; Maria Riveiro; Amy Loutfi; Lars Niklasson; Peter Svenmarck; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; semi-automation; trust; system transparency; meta-information; information fusion; semiautomation; tillit; systemtransparens; meta-information; informationsfusion; Datavetenskap; Computer Science; Technology; Skövde Artificial Intelligence Lab SAIL ;

    Abstract : More and more complex semi-automated systems are being developed, aiding human operators to collect and analyze data and information and even to recommend decisions and act upon these. The goal of such development is often to support the operators make better decisions faster, while at the same time decrease their workload. READ MORE

  3. 3. The use of structural equation modeling to describe the effect of operator functional state on air-to-air engagement outcomes

    Author : Martin Castor; Kjell Ohlsson; Nils Dahlbäck; Erland Svensson; Anders K. Ericsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Computational evidence of the operative usefulness of a new system is crucial in large system development processes concerning billions of euros or dollars. Although it is obvious that the human often is the most important and critical component of many systems, it has often been hard for Human Factors researchers to express human aspects in a computational and strict way.

  4. 4. Human-automation teamwork : Current practices and future directions in air traffic control

    Author : Åsa Svensson; Jonas Lundberg; Camilla Forsell; Niklas Rönnberg; Henrik Artman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This dissertation explores the topic of human-automation teamwork in Air Traffic Control (ATC). ATC is a high stakes environment where complex automation is being introduced while the human operator has the legal responsibility. READ MORE

  5. 5. Automated Functions: Their Potential for Impact Upon Maritime Sociotechnical Systems

    Author : Katie A Aylward; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; situation awareness; sociotechnical systems; Human-automation interaction; decision-making; safety; maritime navigation; e-Navigation; automation;

    Abstract : The shipping industry is evolving towards an unknown and unpredictable future. There is speculation that in the next two decades the maritime industry will witness changes far exceeding those experienced over the past 100 years. READ MORE
