A Human-Computer Interface Vision for Naval Transformation

Abstract

A transformation is needed in Human-Computer Interface (HCI) to accommodate transformations in information availability, computing power, and changing warfighter roles. The HCI paradigm should be transformed from system-centric to mission- centric, and the HCI should be decoupled from individual weapon/sensor/command and control (C2) systems to span across multiple systems to accomplish mission goals. A mission-centered design (MCD) approach can achieve the needed revolution in HCI via transformations in three areas: (1) HCI Design (how the HCI supports the warfighter); (2) HCI Design Process; and (3) HCI Software and Information Management Infrastructure. A Mission-Centered Design Consortium (MCDC) should be created to advance each of these transformations through the creation of open standards and the development/description of best practices.
