Abstract :
This paper describes the task-based human-machine interface (HMI) for the integrated graphic support system (IGSS). Specific operator support for information organization, access and management is discussed. Additionally, the types of support provided by the task-based IGSS HMI is compared to that in which the explicitly task-based components are removed
