• En-route controller workload capacity constraint;
• Predicted traffic growth;
• Reduce workload (ATM 2000+):
- automated tools;
- re-distribute controller tasks;
• Progressive introduction of pilot aircraft separation tasks.
Introduction - The Problem
3Imperial College
• Change in controller tasks:
- other controllers/ pilots• Pilots to do controller tasks:
- conflicts
- pilot workload?• Pilot-controller interactions:
- rules
- collaborative decision-making?• Task division:
- what tasks?
- when?• Controller-pilot workload definition.
The Opportunity
4Imperial College
MethodologyController-Pilots collaborative decision making• Experience of real-time simulations
• What happens in other real-time, high risk fields?- electronic trading- battlefields- nuclear power stations
• Alternative decision making frameworks
- decision trees, loss functions, pay-offs etc.
- different objectives for different actors?
• Analysis of framework
- alternatives need study.
5Imperial College
1. How control tasks are defined and allocated to pilots and controllers?
2. How does interaction/ arbitration between pilots and controllers operate?
Further issues:• Fast-time modelling of decision making;
• Capacity definitions.
Conclusions
Feedback from controllers and pilots on a decision making
