Since the 1960s, the rapid growth of information systems has led to the wide development of
research on human—computer interaction (HCI) that aims at the designing of human …

Human-computer interaction research has produced consistent results bearing on a well-
established body of knowledge in cognitive science. In contrast, the new research domains …

Complex dynamic control (CDC) tasks are a type of problem-solving environment used for
examining many cognitive activities (eg, attention, control, decision making, hypothesis …

Abnormal events in process plants cost the petrochemical industry billions of dollars
annually. In part, these events are difficult to deal with because contemporary interfaces do …

One approach to aiding the human supervisory controller of a complex dynamic system is to
provide an intelligent operator's associate. We propose a prescriptive theory of human …

The use of automation within high-risk industrial production systems has increased markedly
during the last 50 years. Automatic systems have gained in autonomy and authority …

This paper presents a novel software agent model to replace the partial decision-making
function of a human. The proposed model, employing the belief, desire, intention (BDI) agent …

In this paper, we describe the design of a decision support system for operators of model-
based predictive controllers (MPC). MPC is a form of advanced automatic control that is …

This study deals with cognitive cooperation in the context of the design of cooperative
computer support for sharing aircraft conflict detection and resolution tasks between human …

Industrial chemical processes are operated under closed-loop control while being
supervised by human operators. The low-level regulatory controllers are often …
