Decision Making During an Airline Rescheduling Task: A Contextual Control Model Description
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2005)This paper examines decision makers' selection of contextual control modes as described by Hollnagel's Contextual Control Model, and evaluates real-time, unobtrusive measures of a decision maker's immediate mode. In a ... -
Analyzing Air Traffic Management Systems Using Agent-based Modeling and Simulation
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2005-06)This paper presents the viewpoint that an air traffic management system is emergent, i.e., exhibiting behaviors at the system-wide level that emerge from the combined actions of individuals within the system. Emergence ... -
Airline Operations Managers: an Introduction to the Third Leg of the National Air Transportation System
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2005-06) -
Design of Support Systems for Dynamic Decision Making in Airline Operations
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInstitute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2006-04)To date, there has been very little research conducted on the design of support systems for dynamic decisions environments, such as airline operations. The paper discusses the idea that the regulation of dynamic systems ... -

Design of Support Systems for Cognitive Work in Airline Operations
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2006-09)This paper examines design of support systems for airline operations. Previous studies found that cognitive work which includes activities such as judgment and decision making varies with context such that a single method ... -
Design of Multi-mode Support Systems for Airline Operations
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2006-09)This paper discusses designing support systems for cognitive work environments, focusing specifically on airline operations. Previous studies found that cognitive work, which includes activities such as judgment and decision ... -
Airline Command and Control: An Ethnographic Study
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007)The role of airline operations control centers in the national air transportation system is increasing. Yet, the role of airline operations personnel has not been well studied. This paper presents the findings of a series ... -
Design of a Cognitive Work Support System for Airline Operations
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-06) -
Modeling Cockpit Interface Usage During Lunar Landing Redesignation
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2009)Fulfilling NASA's space exploration objectives requires precision landing to reach lunar sites of interest. During the approach and landing stages, a landing point redesignation (LPR) display will provide information to ... -
Quantitative Assessment of Human Control on Landing Trajectory Design
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010-12-02)An increased thirst for scientific knowledge and a desire to advance humanity's presence in space prompts the need for improved technology to send crewed vehicles to places such as the Moon, Mars, and nearby passing ... -
