Automation surprises occur when an automated system behaves differently than its operator expects. If the actual system behavior and the operator's ‘mental model’ are both described as finite state transition systems, then mechanized techniques known as ‘model checking’ can be used automatically to discover any scenarios that cause the behaviors of the two descriptions to diverge from one another. These scenarios identify potential surprises and pinpoint areas where design changes, or revisions to training materials or procedures, should be considered. The mental models can be suggested by human factors experts, or can be derived from training materials, or can express simple requirements for ‘consistent’ behavior. The approach is demonstrated by applying the Murø state exploration system to a ‘kill-the-capture’ surprise in the MD-88 autopilot. |
