Current and Ongoing Work:
- Lead of the Automation Interaction Design Group: The Automation Interaction Design Tools (AIDT) group is focused on developing methods to
improve the design of complex systems. The work centers on a formal approach to the design
and representation of the information for interaction with automated systems. The team is
currently working on tools for the representation of automation, task and human behavior.
