Computer programs emerge as the outcome of complex human processes of cognition, communication and negotiation, which serve to establish the meaningful embedding of the computer system in its intended use context.

Granda, Thomas M. and Vingelis, Patricia J. (1992): An Evaluation of an Altitude Awareness Study. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 36th Annual Meeting 1992. pp. 71-75.

Because of the increase in altitude deviations at USAir during the spring and summer of 1990, an Altitude Awareness Program was instituted in September of 1990. The program emphasized cockpit altitude awareness procedures for pilots to utilize when handling altitude clearances and pilot altitude awareness in general. The program included a data collection and analysis effort involving voluntary pilot reported altitude deviations and potential deviations. USAir's program was subsequently expanded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to include the air traffic controllers at six mid-Atlantic facilities. The study, like the program, focused on a team approach and a positive data collection environment. The study results show that there was a significant difference between the average monthly rates of FAA reported altitude deviations concerning USAir flights for the thirteen month period prior to initiation of the Altitude Awareness Program and the fourteen month period after the program started. An error classification analysis showed that most of the pilot and controller errors were identified as information processing, task prioritization, and decision making errors.

Future human-robot systems are expected to show increasing capabilities, flexibility and levels of machine autonomy. Current systems include manufacturing robots which operate with little human intervention once they have been programmed. Teleoperators generally require continuous human control and achieve flexibility in the face of changing task requirements and environmental conditions. Human control tasks in teleoperated mobility and/or manipulator systems are often quite demanding in terms of workload and operator time. An objective of the future development of human-robot systems is incorporation of technologies such as artificial intelligence, world modeling, machine pattern recognition and automated task planning to permit increased robot autonomy and reduced human operator demands. Stages of human-robot capability were identified and criticalities of certain generic human operator functions were estimated for the capability stages. The resulting profile defines the changing role of the human operator throughout development of the capability stages. This information has implications for human factors research and development in the human-robot systems area.
