Abstract :
In the supervisory control of a complex, dynamic, highly automated system, a human operator is responsible for monitoring the state of the system and detecting and compensating for any system failures. One instance of a human-computer cooperative problem solving paradigm is described: the Georgia Tech Mission Operations Cooperative Assistant (GT-MOCA). GT-MOCA is a real-time aiding system that is used by the human operator at the Georgia Tech Payload Operations Control Center (GT-POCC) simulation, which simulates a satellite ground support system. One facet of GT-MOCA is described: its underlying conceptual model of operator intentions and how that model is used as the basis for an interactive artifact that supports inspectable visualization and dynamic task allocation
