Automation in today’s world has helped human operators having several tasks accomplished in limited time. Therefore, human’s role in automated environments are shifting from operational tasks to supervisory tasks.
In complex environments, supervisory tasks become sometimes difficult to manage as the operator needs to have a clear understanding of different operational levels in the system and make decisions safely and efficiently. My work focuses on strengthening human analytical reasoning by visualizing the constraints and relationships between system parameters to them. My research expertise includes domain problem characterization through work domain analysis, visual encoding design, evaluation study design and simulation design.
I have a M.Sc. degree in Transportation Systems Engineering and Logistics from the division of communication and transport (KTS) and a Ph.D. degree in Visualization and Media Technology from the division of media and information technology (MIT) at the Institute of science and technology (ITN) in Linköping University.
