Includes bibliographical references (page 71).Background and summary -- The comparable systems analysis methodology -- System overviews for site visits -- State-of-the-art of IVHS TMC technologies -- User-centered automation -- System evolution -- User system interfaces and workstations -- Staffing, selection, and training -- Procedures, documentation, and job aids -- Other design and privacy issues -- Design considerations based on comparable systems analysis -- References.Task report;This research explored lessons that have been learned involving human factors in the design and operation of control centers that were similar to a generic, intelligent vehicle highway system (IVHS) class traffic management center (TMC). This report summarizes the critical input, data processing, and output functions that are expected to be performed by IVHS-class TMCs. It describes how these functions are currently performed by the sample of existing high-technology centers and how the functions might evolve with near-term technology advancements and automation. It addresses a series of important TMC design considerations including the user-centered design process, operator selection and training, system evolution and advanced automation, user interface design, and job performance aids.Performed by Georgia Institute of Technology, Electronic Systems Laboratory, under contract no.
