Abstract
This work, a collaboration between Alstom Transport and the MIT
Humans and Automation Laboratory (HAL), is focused on the development of
an interactive in-cab scheduling interface for train operators. Currently,
operators rely on a combination of paper schedules, paper speed charts, and rote
memorization to meet the many demands of train operation. The separation of
this information over multiple sources shifts driver attention away from the
windscreen and may result in increased workload levels and safety
compromises. A Hybrid Cognitive Task Analysis (hCTA), which derives the
information requirements necessary to meet mission goals directly from
operational tasks, was conducted to generate cognitive requirements for the
desired scheduling display. The resulting seventeen requirements were used to
guide the development of a new scheduling display, which is presented.
