Development and Evaluation of an Emissions Control Decision Aid.

Abstract

The DSA emissions control decision aid assists with the design and evaluation of mission control plans. As part of the Office of Naval Research operational decision aiding program, the aid was formally evaluated in tests conducted by an independent ONR consultant. This report describes modifications to the aid, preparation of user's manuals for test subjects, and development of scenarios for the test program. Aid improvements occurred primarily in response to suggestions during briefings, and suggest general principals of display design. The process for scenario development described here insured a set of test scenarios appropriate for an evaluation program. The user's manuals, included in the appendices describe how to use the aid to prepare EMCON plans. (Author)
