Liinasuo, Marja, Aaltonen, Iina, Karvonen, Hannu, Fuentes, Beatriz and Castro, Alfonso (2012): Human Operator Perspective to Autonomic Network Management. In: Proceedings of the 2012 International Conference on Advances in Computer-Human Interactions 2012. pp. 128-134.

“Autonomic Communications is a promising approach for the management of future networks, based on providing self-management and other self-x capabilities to the network elements. Network Governance approach aims to develop new methods for operators to efficiently manage this intelligent infrastructure, ensuring human-to-network communication. This paper presents an interview-based analysis of the expertise of human network operators in their network management activity and the derived requirements for the governance of a self-managed network from a human point of view. The requirements cover the aspects of trust, division of labor between human operators and self-x functionalities, self-x design and human-to-network interface.”

Karvonen, Hannu, Aaltonen, Iina, Wahlström, Mikael, Salo, Leena, Savioja, Paula and Norros, Leena (2010): Unraveling metro train driver's work: challenges in automation concept. In: Proceedings of the 2010 Annual European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics 2010. pp. 233-240.

“Motivation -- We focused on the question: "What is the significance of the train driver in the metro system?" We were especially interested in challenges related to an automation concept of a driverless metro. Research approach -- Metro train drivers' work and the metro system as a whole was examined in interview and field observation studies based on the core-task analysis method. Afterward, a mirror data workshop was organised. Findings/Design -- We describe the diversity of metro train driver's work: in addition to accelerating or braking and door opening or closing, the driver contributes to a variety of other functions in the metro system. For example, the driver maintains an awareness of the surrounding environment and facilitates communication between different actors of the system. Research limitations/Implications -- The participants for both the interview (N=12) and field observation study (N=4) were chosen in advance by the metro organisation. The small sample in the observation study might have also affected the results. Originality/Value -- Our paper analyses the role of the driver in the metro system. The results suggest that a change to a driverless system can affect the quality of service and raise safety issues. The results can be applied to automation implementations also in other domains. Take away message -- There is more to driving a metro train than meets the eye.”
