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 ...

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 ...

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.

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.

Ground traffic surveillance system for Air Traffic control

2012 12th International Conference on ITS Telecommunications, 2012
In this paper a framework for an airport ground traffic surveillance system based on visual information is presented. The framework is designed to improve state-of-the-art Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems (A-SMGCS) adding an image processing module able to act as a “gap-filler” for airport zones that traditional systems fail to ...

Design-In Security for Air Traffic Control

2014 Ninth International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security, 2014
Under the SESAR Programme, the European Air Traffic Management (ATM) industry has adopted an approach of 'design-in security' by applying security assessment from the beginning of the development lifecycle. This has necessitated a convergence of different approaches to security assessment from the different partners.

Measures of Stress/Strain on Air Traffic Controllers in Simulated Air Traffic Control

Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 2000
This poster summarises, in symbolic form, thirty years of experience at the EUROCONTROL Experimental Centre (EEC) in the assessment of the workload placed on controllers, Stress (= Ss) and their reactions to stress, Strain (= St). The accompanying pamphlets go into more detail about the specific techniques.

The effect of airspace loading by controlled air traffic on the air traffic control system

Proceedings of the IEEE, 1970
The purpose of this paper is to examine briefly the amount of traffic which air controllers can manage with varying levels of automation. It is shown that automated aids to the controller expand his capacity to handle traffic by a factor of 2-3. The use of area navigation and rerouting can increase his traffic handling capacity by another factor of 2-3.

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.
