Cott, Harold P. Van, Weiner, Earl, Wickens, Christopher D., Blackman, Harold S. and Sheridan, Thomas B. (1995): "Smart Automation Enhances Safety": A Motion for Debate. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. pp. 448-449.

The Debate Resolution: Attempting to structure the benefits and hazards of rapidly evolving technologies within an envelope that defines what is safe, feasible and economically viable, is difficult. While experts may not have a neat way to do this in hand, they can sometimes piece together experience and wisdom in interesting ways and occasionally strike a spark that illuminates the darkness. Toward this end four authorities in human performance and automaton. will debate the following proposition, stated in the form of a resolution "Be it Resolved: That Smart Automation Enhances Safety."
