The augmented stage model of human information processing : how well do cognitive abilities drawn from the stages in the model predict concurrent task management performance?

Creator:: Nicolalde Flores, Roberto Javier
Abstract:: Research in the aviation domain, driving distractions, anesthesia administration, and nuclear power plant control rooms show that Concurrent Task Management (CTM) is a process that every human operator performs when interacting with complex environments. The need for understanding concurrent task management in a broader perspective more applicable and generalizable to...

A preliminary study for task management environment external validation: correlation between continuous, discrete and mixed scenarios

Creator:: Vasquez Aguirre, Carlos Andres
Abstract:: Concurrent Task Management (CTM) can be defined as the process that human operators of complex systems perform to allocate their attention among multiple, simultaneous tasks. A challenge of CTM research is to create an experimental environment which is complex enough to model a real world multitasking situation. Also, this system...

Scientists' perspectives on the importance of scientific communication in natural resource decision-making

Creator:: Shaw, Christine Michelle
Abstract:: Natural resource decisions require consideration at many levels, ranging from how one invertebrate will be affected by a nearby road, to how an entire watershed will be transformed by a massive clearcut. Considerations reach farther than just the local ecological community-human communities, economies, and future impacts on the communities and...

A mathematical modeling framework for scheduling and managing multiple concurrent tasks

Creator:: Shakeri, Shakib
Abstract:: Occurrence of human error in highly complex systems, such as a cockpit, can be disastrous and/or overwhelmingly costly. Mismanagement of multiple concurrent tasks has been observed by researchers to be a type of repetitive human error in previous studies of accidents and incidents. This error may occur in the form...

Development and evaluation of multiple criteria decision-making approaches to watershed management

Creator:: Lamy, France
Abstract:: Decision-making in environmental management is complex due to the multiplicity arid diversity of management objectives and technological choices. This suggests that modelers and experts could utilize (I) multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approaches to assist stakeholder groups in integrating and synthesizing relevant data and information to address ecological and socio-economic concerns and...

FATE group decision support system in transportation decision making

Creator:: Taekratok, Thaweesak
Abstract:: Two interesting challenges have been created in the traditional transportation planning process through recent adoption of more interactive roles by Federal, State and local transportation agencies and of those representing the communities being impacted by proposed transportation projects. First, the decision-making groups that formerly included solely transportation and related professionals...

Decision support systems for forest biodiversity management : a review of tools and an analytical-deliberative framework for understanding their successful application

Creator:: Gordon, Sean N.
Abstract:: The complexity of forest management has increased with the scope of resources of concern and the level of scrutiny from stakeholders. The design and use of specialized computer software, often referred to as “decision support systems” (DSS), is one method for helping managers deal with this complexity. DSS have proven...

Reproductive decision-making in young women breast cancer survivors

Creator:: Everson, Courtney Louise
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to use an integrated biocultural perspective to examine the decision-making processes of young survivors as they navigate breast cancer treatment and reproductive health care options. This retrospective study utilizes a mixed-methods approach that integrates quantitative survey data (Phase I) with interview (Phase II) and...

Study of multi-criteria decision-making : development of a decision model to determine when to conduct nighttime construction road work

Creator:: Park, Sang-Bin
Abstract:: Many Departments of Transportation (DOTs) have done construction and maintenance work at night in order to minimize the disruption of daytime traffic, but nighttime operations produce a new set of concerns such as safety, public relations, productivity, and work quality. In addition, decision-making for using nighttime operations has been subjective...
