Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
1. To investigate patterns of information use with different kinds of user interface, and their contribution to operational effectiveness in situation appraisal and decision making. 2. To assess the functional role of the watchkeeper's mental model in providing an active link between information acquisition and situation appraisal, and to develop methods for supporting this role. 3. To develop a suite of methods for use as a human factors test bed, to facilitate the testing of new bridge designs and operational procedures. The following tasks have been identified. (1) Field studies an assessment of information needs of bridge operators. (2) Development of a laboratory operational environment. (3) Development of a PC base simulator. (4) Laboratory studies of operator performance. (5) Development of operational scenarios. (6) Simulation studies of operator performance. (7) Preparation of recommendations.
