ABSTRACT

Automation has produced a shift from perceptual-motor to more procedural and cognitive modes of system control. Systems are deployed in an increasingly complex and dynamic environment. Shorter response times, and co-ordination over ever larger distances and between less homogeneous task forces, impose high demands on situational awareness and on timely and accurate communication between the players in the battle space. Thus, the specification problem is likely to become more difficult, with increased emphasis on TNA and TPD.
