This volume contains the proceedings of the Twentieth Annual Conference on Manual Control, held in Sunnyvale, Calif., June 12-14, 1984. It contains forty eight of the papers that were presented that were devoted to human operator modeling, application of models to simulation and operational environments, aircraft handling qualities, teleoperators, fault diagnosis, and biodynamics. Four of the papers are included in abstract form. The remaining papers are complete manuscripts. In Volume II, topics more closely associated with the mental processes of the human operator that were presented at the same conference are included. The topics covered in Volume II include application of event-related brain potential analysis to operational problems, the subjective evaluation of workload, mental models, training, crew interaction analysis, multiple task performance and measurement of workload and performance in simulation. In Volume II, there are thirty two complete manuscripts and five abstracts. The papers included in Volumes I and II represent all of those presented at the conference. Human-machine interaction, Displays, Human modeling, Workload, Manual control, Simulation, Decision making, Attention.
Lists citations with abstracts for aerospace related reports obtained from world wide sources and announces documents that have recently been entered into the NASA Scientific and Technical Information Database.
Workload transition is a potentially crucial problem in work situations wherein operators are faced with abrupt changes in task demands. People involved include military combat personnel, air-traffic controllers, medical personnel in emergency rooms, and long-distance drivers. They must be able to respond efficiently to sudden increases in workload imposed by a failure, crisis, or other, often unexpected, event. This book provides a systematic evaluation of workload transition. It focuses on a broad spectrum of activities ranging from team cooperation to the maintenance of this problem on a theoretical level and offers several practical solutions.
