Validation of a model-based methodology for the design and evaluation of advanced cockpit information-display systems is undertaken. The technique is applied to determine information and display requirements in an A10 terrain-following flying task. Four candidate display systems, including a flight director system, are proposed and rank-ordered across dimensions of workload and performance. Validation of the analytical predictions is accomplished through man-in-the-loop simulation experiments. It is concluded that the methodology, which can determine the limit information to the best quantities needed by the pilot to perform effectively, can be a valuable tool in the development of advanced cockpit information systems.

The design of a new severely upgraded aircraft cockpit requires many design decisions to be made, at least tentatively, prior to any opportunities for generation of detailed design specifications and experimentation with prototypes. In considering issues of interface design and function allocation, it is important to develop predictions concerning the effects of the various design alternatives on pilot performance. Task network models and workload estimation techniques are typically used jointly to accomplish this goal. The work described here was conducted in order to refine type of analysis and prediction technique as part of the U.S. Navy's Advanced Tactical Cockpit (ATC) Pilot-Vehicle Interface (PVI) Program.

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.
