Barrett Caldwell, PhD Associate Professor, Schools of Industrial Engineering and Aeronautics & Astronautics Director, Indiana Space Grant Consortium Purdue University Title: Team Coordination and Event Management by Distributed Experts Abstract: The increasing complexity of modern engineering systems creates new demands for effective team coordination, information sharing, and distributed performance. Systems engineering considerations for improved human-automation interactions require improved robust system performance designs, including recognition of effective information flow and the ability of humans to effectively operate in and recover from nominal as well as degraded performance conditions. The requirements for effective information flow and context sharing between distributed experts has led the author to develop the principles of distributed supervisory coordination, an evolution of Sheridan's Human Supervisory Control paradigm applied to team-based cognitive engineering settings. This presentation also describes issues of coordinated recognition, response, and management of events as performed by physically, temporally, or cognitively distributed experts. About the speaker: Professor Caldwell's research is focused on how people get, share, and use information in complex task settings. His work is especially relevant to team performance in time critical environments such as space flight operations, healthcare operations, and other tasks where distributed human experts manage complex systems. He has worked with state government agencies, companies, hospitals, and NASA research centers, and has been an invited participant in several programs of the National Research Council / National Academy of Engineering. In addition to his teaching and research activities, Dr. Caldwell also served as Program Chair for the Annual Meeting of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society from 2003-2008. more info about the speaker |
