Abstract:

This study takes a high-level approach to evaluate computer systems without regard to the specific method of ; interaction. This document analyzes the commands that Airway Facilities (AF) use across different systems and ; the meanings attributed to the different commands. Human factors researchers collected data on AF systems and ; equipment, identifying 25 different systems monitored and controlled by AF specialists. Different AF systems ; had different means of interfacing with the computer (e.g., graphical user interface, menus, and command line ; interface). The researchers summarized data on the interaction types across AF systems to find that most AF ; systems used menus as the primary means of interaction. Among the 25 systems monitored and controlled by ; AF, they uncovered more than 1500 options for accessing, interacting with, and controlling the equipment ; necessary to National Airspace System operations. They analyzed the options for frequency of occurrence and ; defined meanings for each of the most frequently used options. The result of this analysis is a set of core ; commands that are common across a number of systems.
