Evaluation of workload in air traffic controllers

Ergonomics, 1993
This study examined 20 air traffic controllers from the Rome Regional Air Control Centre for three successive work shifts: afternoon (13:00-20:00), morning (07:00-13:00) and night (20:00-07:00). The number of aircraft under control per hour was recorded as index of workload.

Air traffic control

New Scientist, 2008
Determining how the controller (or air navigation service provider) of the future will function in tomorrow's Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) will require an understanding of the existing literature. In this chapter, after an analysis of the controller's job, we focus on technology, which is an important factor in air traffic ...

The Military and Air Traffic Control

IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1973
The Department of Defense currently operates about 30 000 aircraft, the largest most varied single fleet of aircraft of those using the National Aviation System (NAS). For this and other important reasons discussed herein, military participation in evolving an efficient and effective NAS forces consideration of a number of important issues by the ...

Air traffic controller agents

Proceedings of the second international joint conference on Autonomous agents and multiagent systems, 2003
Research sought to develop agents that can stand in for human air traffic controllers in large-scale simulation studies of advanced air traffic management concepts. The agents use a high-level activity model to structure the air traffic control task, and apply heuristics to plan and formulate clearances.

Air Traffic Control

1970
Abstract : The report covers the development of improved surveillance and communication subsystems to meet the demands of the automated NAS/ARTS Air Traffic Control system. Field measurements of the beacon interference environment were completed and studies to upgrade sensor efficiency were intensified.

The Air-Traffic Controller

1978
To the layman, air-traffic control is one of the more exotic jobs created by advanced technology, on a par with computers, high speed aircraft and complex chemical plant. For the applied psychologist, too, it presents a variety of interesting facets : it is a very new profession, concerned with rapidly developing procedures and equipment, and there is ...

The Case of Air Traffic Control

2017
Air traffic controllers have to guarantee safe and efficient air traffic by predicting future flight paths based on their perception and interpretation of multiple data on the radar display. The multitasking nature of their job makes the cognitive and emotional processes required in air traffic control fundamentally different from those traditionally ...

Air traffic control

Nature, 2000
Molecular traffic can spontaneously direct itself along a network of channels. Philip Ball explains how this could be used to separate large molecules from small.

Air Traffic Control

2012
Air traffic control (ATC) is a service provided by ground-based controllers who ensure the safe, orderly and expeditious flow of traffic on the airways and at airports. They control and supervise aircraft departing and landing, as well as during flight by instructing pilots to fly at assigned altitudes and on defined routes.
