Human-Computer Interaction in the Control of Dynamic Systems

Published: 01 March 1981 Publication History

Abstract

Modes of human-computer interaction in the control of dynamic systems are discussed, and the problem of allocating tasks between human and computer considered. Models of human performance in a variety of tasks associated with the control of dynamic systems are reviewed. These models are evaluated in the context of a design example involving human-computer interaction in aircraft operations. Other examples include power plants, chemical plants, and ships.
