Human Performance Modeling in Aviation

Zusatztext "The editors put conspicuous effort into making this volume a tightly integrated presentation of the research project! the tools (i.e. HPM)! and the specific problems in the larger context of aviation safety . . . The text works very well as a stand-alone introduction to modeling as well as a review of the state of the art of HPM techniques." -Esa M. Rantanen!

Fall 2008"? the first volume devoted entirely to the topic of human performance modeling in aviation. ? particularly valuable because! similarly to Gluck and Pew (2005)! it compares the performance and usefulness of multiple models (five! to be exact) when addressing the same tasks and scenario contexts. As an added benefit! the editors did not stop after articulating a comparison among models; in addition! they sought out and documented the model developers' retrospective reflections on the model-building process and the state of the art in such models. The result is a coherent summary of the capabilities of the five models and an assessment of the state of the art of human performance modeling in general and in the field of aviation in particular." -Richard W.

Klappentext

Based on the research activities of the six-year NASA human performance modeling project, Human Performance Modeling in Aviation provides an in-depth look at cognitive modeling of human operators for aviation problems. This book presents specific solutions to aviation safety problems and explores methods for integrating human performance modeling into the aviation design process. The text compares the application of five different models to two classes of aviation problems: pilot navigation errors during airport taxi operations and approach and landing performance with synthetic vision systems. This results in a comprehensive summary of the capabilities of each model and of the field in general.
