  1. 16. Effects of Complexity Factors on Controllers Workload in Stockholm Terminal Area

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Elmira Zohrevandi; [2016]
    Keywords : Air traffic complexity; Air traffic controller; Air traffic complexity factors; Stockholm air traffic area; Luftfartsverket; Human automation collaboration; Safe human automation interaction; Air transportation safety; Air traffic controller workload; Inf;

    Abstract : Through a history of more than 50 years, the results of mathematical models have shown that controller workload is being driven by the complexity involved in the airspace environment. Part of this complexity is prompted by the dynamical behavior of traffic patterns. READ MORE

  3. 17. Usability of Operational systems in Train Traffic Control : Development of Indicators and Metrics for Measuring Satisfaction

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Nina Knez; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study focuses on how to define and measure usability in systems used for operational train traffic control. The study is conducted as a project for the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket); the authority that is in charge of the train traffic in Sweden. The train dispatchers are the ones that control the train traffic. READ MORE

  4. 18. Digital mirrors : Supplementary information to increase driver’s awareness of surroundings

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.); KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Avd.)

    Author : Bahare Payandehmehr; Marta Placzkowska; [2015]
    Keywords : Trucks; Digital mirrors; Supplementary information; Cognitive ergonomics; Simulator test.; Lastbilar; Digitala speglar; Kompletterande information; Kognitiv ergonomi; Simulator test;

    Abstract : Replacement of physical rear-view mirrors with digital offer new possibilities for vision enhancements and supplementary information that could facilitate driving. However, the invehicle support systems and information contribute to increased mental workload of the driver and inadequate Human Machine Interface (HMI) can lead to distraction and impaired driving performance.

    Abstract : A human-centered approach when developing new support systems in vehicles has the potential to enable the driver to make safe decisions in the transition between manual and automatic control. However, careful considerations have to be taken. READ MORE

  6. 20. Characterizing WLAN Channel Occupancy for Cognitive Networking

    University essay from KTH/Kommunikationsnät

    Author : Alexandre Vizcaino Luna; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The deployment of heterogeneous wireless networks in the same spectrum space introduces the need for dynamic spectrum access so as to increase the utilization of the available wireless resources. Dynamic spectrum access needs to be controlled in order avoid interference between the users of different systems. READ MORE
