Review and Analysis of "Human Factors Engineering Requirements for Canadian Forces Command and Control Information Systems": Guidelines and User Manual

Abstract

In summary, an analysis of the operator's goals and associated states of situation awareness has the potential to provide a significant value-added component to the processes of requirements specification, and subsequently detailed system design. This is achieved by taking into consideration how the information provided by a CCIS must be matched to the particular way in which information will be used by the operator in a specific operational context. A successful analysis will therefore contribute to improving the probability that new system designs will contain the necessary flexibility and adaptability to meet a user's varying information needs contingent upon the current goals in hand.
