Abstract

Next generation aviation operations will place a much greater dependence on automation usage, and therefore additional emphasis needs to be placed on the evaluation of human automation interaction in the design and evaluation of these systems. Additionally, new airworthiness regulations and regulatory certification processes are beginning to focus on the design and verification testing of the pilot-automation interaction. Current human computer interaction analyses (computational human performance models and task analysis methods) are not effectively usable within the constrained timeline of real world design and certification processes. Fundamental and theoretical work is needed to develop methods and tools that will provide designers and regulators with the means of testing and providing useful feedback about the efficacy of these interactions.
