Deogun, Jitender S. – Information Processing and Management, 1988
Presents a conceptual framework for the development of decision support systems which outlines abstractions involved in the decision-making process and describes various functions and components of the system. The computer architecture is described and an example of an application is provided. (31 references) (Author/CLB)

Cline, Jonathan A. – 1991
Different people have a diversity of needs and expectations when approaching an information retrieval system, and providing people with the ease and efficiency to access information is important when designing systems. By examining the man-machine interface from the cognitive viewpoint, it is possible to investigate how a person interacts with an…

Parkman, Ralph – 1967
An inter-disciplinary course entitled "Cybernation and Man," developed by the School of Engineering at San Jose State College, tries to evaluate the many problems posed to man by the expansion of his technology. It is contended in the course that the most effective approach to control of complex social phenomena within a technological…

Feuge, Robert L.; And Others – 1974
An analysis of the conceptual feasibility of using automatic speech recognition and understanding technology in the design of an advanced training system was conducted. The analysis specifically explored application to Ground Controlled Approach (GCA) controller training. A systems engineering approach was followed to determine the feasibility of…
