MERMAIDS, a computer-based training system, enhances emergency command and control. It uses cognitive systems engineering and a decision-centric interface for better operator training and information management in emergency response.

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Systems Engineering
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Information Management

Background:

  • Emergency command and control systems require effective training for operators.
  • Existing training methods may not fully leverage cognitive principles or advanced information management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the design and implementation of MERMAIDS, a computer-based training system for emergency command and control.
  • To investigate the application of cognitive systems engineering and information management for operator training.
  • To introduce a decision-centric human-computer interface for emergency systems modeling.

Main Methods:

  • Development of MERMAIDS, a computer-based training system.
  • Application of cognitive systems engineering principles.
