DECISION SCIENCES LABORATORY BIENNIAL PROGRESS REPORT, JULY 1962-JUNE 1964

Abstract

The Decision Sciences Laboratory initiates exploratory development programs; that is, it estimates and examines future operational requirements of the Air Force, primarily in the area of information processing systems, and determines from such investigation and consideration the implications for man- machine interaction. DSL is also responsible for designing, developing, procuring, evaluating, managing, and updating certain display components of Air Force electronic systems. Further, it provides engineering services to all elements of the Electronic Systems Division within the area on display characteristics, human performance, and man-machine relationship problems for both present and future Air Force Military Information Systems, needs. Topics discussed includes: Data presentation and display; learning, decision making and problem solving; programmed teaching and automated training; and communication theory.
