* Areas of Research ** Human factors, human-robot interaction, human-computer interaction ** Mode-checking * Modeling ** Physical system: world and UAV modeled as a transition system (state machine or markov process) ** Roles: operator, video analyst, and mission manager modeled as a transition system (directed graph or timed automaton) * Analysis ** Combine the concurrent roles defined by the above models into a single sequential model, and evaluate whether all tasks are being done and whether all temporal constraints are being satisfied. This is essentially a problem of turning the concurrent role models into a sequential model. ** Identify concurrency conflicts and establish properties of the single model. * Design ** Create a graphical user interface or decision support system to support a single human in performing all three roles ** Identify role-specific tasks that need to be automated to enable a single human to fulfill all three roles
