Real-time generation of representations for cognitive models.

30 Jul 2009 Computerized models of human cognition and behavior have been used to help researchers refine their theories of cognitive processes. Two difficulties inherent in using these cognitive models are that building representations of to-be-modeled groups ... Read more...

A theory and model of conflict detection in air traffic control: incorporating environmental constraints.

30 May 2009 A performance theory for conflict detection in air traffic control is presented that specifies how controllers adapt decisions to compensate for environmental constraints. This theory is then used as a framework for a model that can fit controller ... Read more...

Mass casualty tracking with air traffic control methodologies.

15 Apr 2009 BACKGROUND: An intrahospital casualty throughput system modeled after air traffic control (ATC) tracking procedures was tested in mass casualty exercises. ATC uses a simple tactile process involving informational progress strips representing each ... Read more...
