1. 1 Background The basis for the material in this book centers around research done in an ongoing long-term project which focuses on the development of highly au- 1 tonomousunmannedaerialvehiclesystems. Theactualplatformwhichserves as a case study for the research in this book will be described in detail later in this chapter. Before doing that, a brief background of the motivations - hind this research will be provided. One of the main research topics in the project is knowledge representation and reasoning and its use in Uav pl- forms. A very strong constraint has been placed on the nature of research done in the project where theoretical results, to the greatest extent possible, should serve as a basis for tractable reasoning mechanisms for use in a fully deployed autonomous Uav operating under soft real-time constraints asso- ated with the types of mission scenarios envisioned. Considering that much of the work with knowledge representation in this context focuses on application domains where one can only hope for an incomplete characterization of such domains, this methodological constraint has proven to be quite challenging since, in essence, the focus is on tractable approximate and nonmonotonic reasoning systems. As is well known, until recently, nonmonotonic formalisms have had a notorious reputation for lack of tractable and scalable reasoning systems.

Electronic Checklists on Multi-Purpose Displays: A Better Way for Fighter Pilots to Manage Information and Situational Awareness During Periods of Hig

After accumulating mishap data from the 1990's, accident investigations are revealing that pilot error causes approximately 80% of aviation mishaps. But, apply a bit more aggressive critical analysis into the type of human errors occurring highlight the fact that task saturation, lack of situational awareness, and checklist errors are the leading factors. Although 'stick and rudder' errors still occur due to poor piloting skills or deficiencies in training, the majority of the human errors are linked to the pilot's mental abilities. Current USAF fighters are pushing the limit of the pilot's ability to collect and comprehend enormous amounts of information. The cumulative effects of these technologies, which were intended to increase situational awareness and lethality, are in actuality responsible for the loss of situational awareness due to task saturation. The focus of this research will be on pilots' mental abilities and identifying known limitations within the cognitive process. But, innovative information technologies and other ergonomic efforts within the cockpit will also be looked at because it is impossible to look at the cognitive perspective in isolation. We must also look at the interaction the mind has with physical characteristics of a fighter aircraft. Renovating the vehicle in which the checklist information is communicated to pilots could be a potential solution to fight task saturation, susceptibility to spatial disorientation and overall mental errors in today's cockpit. The fundamental conclusion resulting from this research is electronic checklists and data-based information banks can optimize pilot workload, situation awareness, and improve overall air combat performance by taking advantage of new information storage capabilities. The ultimate goal is to integrate this information into the "glass cockpit" seamlessly without increasing pilot workload resulting in decreased pilot errors.

Partiality, Modality, and Nonmonotonicity

This edited volume of articles provides a state-of-the-art description of research in logic-based approaches to knowledge representation which combines approaches to reasoning with incomplete information that include partial, modal, and nonmonotonic logics. The collection contains two parts: foundations and case studies. The foundations section provides a general overview of partiality, multi-valued logics, use of modal logic to model partiality and resource-limited inference, and an integration of partial and modal logics. The case studies section provides specific studies of issues raised in the foundations section. Several of the case studies integrate modal and partial modal logics with nonmonotonic logics. Both theoretical and practical aspects of such integration are considered. Knowledge representation issues such as default reasoning, theories of action and change, reason maintenance, awareness, and automation of nonmonotonic reasoning are covered.

Die Wahrheit über begeisterte Mitarbeiter

Egal ob Tellerwäscher, Investmentbanker oder leitender Angestellter, jede Arbeit kann unglücklich machen. Auch wenn die Karriere noch so gut geplant und den eigenen Interessen und Fähigkeiten entsprechend gewählt wurde, quälen sich viele Menschen jeden Morgen zur Arbeit, um abends noch frustrierter nach Hause zu kommen. Bestseller Autor und Business-Guru Patrick Lencioni erzählt die unvergessliche Geschichte Brian Baileys, eines pensionierten Vorstandsvorsitzenden auf der Suche nach dem Sinn in seiner Arbeit und seinem Leben. -------- Als alle Mitarbeiter Platz genommen hatten, begann Brian Bailey. Er entschied sich, direkt auf den Punkt zu kommen, der ihm unter den Nägeln brannte: "Handzeichen bitte. Wer von Ihnen mag seinen Job?" Keine Reaktion. Die Mitarbeiter sahen ihn an, als hätte er russisch mit ihnen geredet. "Also gut", Brian grinste. "Dann muss ich wohl deutlicher werden. Okay, wie wär's damit: Wer findet die Aussicht, zur Arbeit zu gehen, schön? Wer hat gute Laune, wenn er hier ankommt?" Brian hätte genauso gut fragen können, ob sie gern ausgepeitscht werden wollten. Keine Hand ging hoch, der eine oder die andere lachte laut. -------- Auf einer ungewöhnlichen Reise, die ihn vom Vorstandszimmer eines angesehenen Unternehmens zu den Skipisten am Lake Tahoe und schließlich zur Bestellannahme einer Fastfood Kette führt, entlarvt Brian die drei Symptome, die jede Arbeit zu einer miserablen Angelegenheit machen können (Nichtmessbarkeit, Anonymität und Irrelevanz) und bietet Managern eine Lösung, um sie einzudämmen. Das zeigt auf, wie und warum Mitarbeiter engagiert und loyal gegenüber ihrem Unternehmen sind. Sowohl für den Manager, der versucht Wettbewerbsvorteile zu schaffen und seine Angestellten zu motivieren, als auch für den Mitarbeiter, der nach persönlicher Erfüllung in seiner Arbeit sucht, bietet das Buch unmittelbare Linderung - und Hoffnung.
Casey McDaniel war noch nie in seinem Leben so nervös gewesen. In 10 Minuten sollte DAS Meeting beginnen, und Casey hatte allen Grund zur Annahme, dass sein Auftritt während der nächsten 2 Stunden über seine weitere Karriere, seine finanzielle Zukunft und das Schicksal seiner Firma entscheiden würde. "Wie konnte mein Leben nur so rasend schnell völlig aus den Fugen geraten?", fragte er sich. In seinem Bestseller bietet Patrick Lencioni ein Heilmittel für das wohl schmerzhafteste und dennoch unterschätzteste Problem im heutigen Geschäftsleben: schlechte Meetings. Und was er vorschlägt, ist simpel und revolutionär zugleich. Der Gedanke an Meetings verursacht bei den meisten Managern und Mitarbeitern Bauchschmerzen. Aber sie sind nun mal ein unverzichtbarer Bestandteil der Arbeit. Anhand einer Leadership-Fabel, der dazugehörigen Theorie und praktischen Tipps zeigt Lencioni, wie Meetings von einer anstrengenden und nervenaufreibenden Angelegenheit zu produktiven, fesselnden und energiergeladenen Ereignissen werden können. In der Fabel begegnen wir dem CEO Casey McDaniel, der die katastrophale Meetingkultur in seinem Unternehmen unbedingt verbessern muss, aber nicht weiß wie. Ihm hilft schließlich ein respektloser, junger Berater, Will Petersen, mit einigen unkonventionellen und radikalen Ideen zur Lösung des Problems (Meetings müssen dramatischer und konfliktgeladener sein, um nicht zu langweilen, und Meetings sollten kontextbezogene Strukturen aufweisen). Das Buch ist ein Blueprint für Führungskräfte, die endlich wissen wollen, wie sie ihre Meetings optimieren können, damit Zeit sparen und Frustration verhindern sowie eine Kultur voller Energie, Leidenschaft und Engagement schaffen können.
