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 such as air traffic control, supervisory tasks become sometimes difficult to manage as the controller needs to have a clear understanding of different operational levels in the system and make decisions about them in a limited amount of time.
My work focuses on design and evaluation of visual encodings to strengthen human-automation collaboration in real time systems. The project is funded by Swedish research council (Vetenskaprådet) and is in a collaboration with Dr. Jonas Lundberg, Dr. Carl Westin and Dr. Katerina Vrotsou.
I have a masters degree in Transportation systems engineering and logistics from the Division of communication and transport (KTS) at the Institute of science and technology (ITN) in Linköping University.
