... there are no simple 'right' answers for most web design questions (at least not for the important ones). What works is good, integrated design that fills a need--carefully thought out, well executed, and tested.

Kantowitz, Barry H., Becker, Curtis A. and Barlow, S. Todd (1993): Assessing Driver Acceptance of IVHS Components. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 37th Annual Meeting 1993. pp. 1062-1066.

From a human factors perspective, ATIS and CVO are key components of IVHS. But impressive technology does not guarantee consumer acceptance. Several issues concerning acceptance of new technology are discussed including product characteristics, consumer characteristics, and implications for CVO. Two experiments that evaluate driver acceptance are described.

Becker, Curtis A. and Hamerman-Matsumoto, Joy (1989): The Use of Low-Cost Microcomputers as Medium-Fidelity Simulators for Prototype Development, Training and Research. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. pp. 1068-1071.

Research time in state-of-the-art flight simulators is in heavy demand. The demand is even more acute when future aircraft and future cockpit systems are the targets of the investigation. Configuring the simulator properly and then training pilots to function in that configuration are substantial time drains. We believe that we have solved many of the problems associated with limiting the cockpit crew station designs to optimal configurations before committing simulator resources to further investigation. Further, we have also resolved a major training requirement in a way that we believe will minimize the need for in-simulator training time.
