Roth, Emilie M., Woods, D. D., Elm, W. C. and Gallagher, J. M. (1987): Providing On-Line Advice for a Dynamic Control Task: A Case Study in Intelligent Support System Design. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 36-40.

“This paper describes an Intelligent Manual Feedwater Control Station (IMFCS) that provides on-line expert guidance for a process control task: control of feedwater during power plant startup and operation. The IMFCS provides control action advice derived from the analysis of the performance of expert operators. It represents a novel approach to advisory systems in that (a) IMCF does not attempt to replicate in detail the surface activities of domain experts, but rather abstracts the cognitive competencies required for expert performance and provides a domain representation that promotes these competencies; (b) the advice takes an analogue graphic display form; (c) a common frame of reference is established between machine advisor and human practitioner that integrates advice and "explanation" avoiding problems with opaque advice.”
