Ecological Approach to Increase Agent Transparency in Semi-Automated Air Traffic Control

Future ATM systems will rely on automation to make operations more efficient. Creating insight into the inner-workings of automation, also known as agent transparency, is expected to play an important role for effective human-machine collaboration. This research proposes an ecological approach to increase agent transparency in automated...

Effects of Wind and Trajectory Uncertainty in a 4D Trajectory Management Interface: Bringing 4D Air Traffic Control Closer To Reality

As a result of the current evolution in the ATM system, a fundamental shift in the ATC work domain is foreseen from ad-hoc tactical to more strategic, 4D (i.e., space and time) trajectory management. Both the SESAR programme in Europe<br/>and the NextGen programme in the US envision a central role for the human operator, to be aided by high...
