  • An Experimental Study on the Effect of Pattern Recognition Parameters on the Accuracy of Wireless-Based Task Time Estimation

    Creator:
    Muyanja, Andrew W., Atichat, Tanawat, and Porter, J. David
    Abstract:
    Task time estimation is a core industrial engineering discipline. However, the process to collect the required data is manually intensive and tedious, thus making it expensive to keep the data current. Radio frequency signals have been used to automate the required data collection in some applications. However, such radio frequency...

  • Real-time Speech Workload Estimation

    Creator:
    Fortune, Julian D.
    Abstract:
    Demanding task environments (e.g., supervising a remotely piloted aircraft) require performing tasks quickly and accurately; however, periods of low and high operator workload can decrease task performance. Intelligent modulation of the system’s demands and interaction modality in response to changes in operator workload state may increase performance by avoiding undesirable...

  • Explicit linear maximum likelihood estimation in mixed models

    Creator:
    Wulff, Shaun S.
    Abstract:
    Mixed models have been widely used to model data from experiments which have fixed and random factors. Often there is interest in the estimation of fixed effects and variance components. The likelihood procedure is a general technique that has been applied to such problems. This procedure can be computationally difficult,...

  • MacSchedule : speedup estimation in parallel program task graphs

    Creator:
    Fortner, Patrick D.
    Abstract:
    Parallel computers have generated a great deal of excitement and interest in the computer industry as well as the computer user industries. Parallel computers offer the promise of enormous gains in computing speeds by allowing multiple processors to work on different pieces of the same problem at the same time....

  • Modeling Task Prioritization Behaviors in a Time-Pressured Multitasking Environment

    Creator:
    Toma, Takeaki
    Abstract:
    Funk’s (1991) cockpit task management (CTM) theory is structurally consistent with cognitive multitasking models: it addresses managing multiple and concurrent tasks in three stages: situation awareness, response selection, and response execution. Based on CTM theory, Colvin, Funk and Braune (2005) hypothesized that the following six factors may affect task prioritization:...

  • Position estimation

    Creator:
    McKenney, Paul E.
    Abstract:
    Acoustic position estimation is used where high accuracy navigation is required over a small area, such as for searching or for collecting gravitational or geomagnetic data. In this position estimation method, a surface ship or submersible periodically sends out a high-frequency acoustic 'ping' at a prearranged frequency. This ping is...

  • A wireless sensor network approach for estimating individual task time

    Creator:
    Atichat, Tanawat
    Abstract:
    Most existing methods for generating individual task time estimates in production systems where jobs move through various manually operated workstations remain tedious and time consuming. For existing systems, average task times may vary considerably from prior estimates causing system inefficiencies, poor scheduling and poor planning decisions. Accurate and up-to-date estimates...

  • Multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem with resource vacations and task splitting

    Creator:
    Buddhakulsomsiri, Jirachai
    Abstract:
    The research presented in this dissertation addresses the Multi-Mode Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (MMRCPSP) in the presence of resource unavailability. This research is motivated by the scheduling of engineering design tasks in automotive product development to minimize the project completion time, but addresses a general scheduling situation that is applicable...

  • Fisher and logistic discriminant function estimation in the presence of collinearity

    Creator:
    O'Donnell, Robert P. (Robert Paul)
    Abstract:
    The relative merits of the Fisher linear discriminant function (Efron, 1975) and logistic regression procedure (Press and Wilson, 1978; McLachlan and Byth, 1979), applied to the two group discrimination problem under conditions of multivariate normality and common covariance, have been debated. In related research, DiPillo (1976, 1977, 1979) has argued...

  • 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...
