The present research examines operational performance and verbal communication in airline flight crews under reduced crew operations (RCO). Eighteen two-pilot crews flew six scenarios under three conditions; one condition involved current-day operations while two involved RCO. In RCO flights, the Captain initially operated the simulated aircraft alone but could request remote crewmember support...

When actors in a social network interact, it usually means they have some general goal towards which they are collaborating. This could be a research collaboration in a company or a foursome planning a golf game. We call such groups planning groups. In many social contexts, it might be possible to observe the dyadic interactions between actors, even if the actors do not explicitly declare what ...

Current trends in scientific collaboration focus on developing effective Web-based communication tools, such as instant messaging (i.,e IM) or video-conferencing. One objective is to provide informal communication opportunities for collaborating scientists. This paper focuses on developing an assistive technology for predicting where breakdown situations have likely occurred in chat communicati...

This paper builds on the experiences gained from the extensive work carried out during the MOST project [MOST,95]. This project investigated the use of mobile technologies to support multimedia collaboration between highly mobile field engineers in the safety critical domain of the U.K. power distribution industry. The MOST team developed a prototype distributed groupware application which was ...

Certain researchers suggest that a teaching method which encapsulates collaboration and interaction would likely work well within the framework of Internet based distance education courses. In order to verify how interaction and collaboration work between students in distance education courses, we observed and researched two undergraduate university courses offered via the Internet. All communi...

Collaboration within interdisciplinary team is a challenge even with the presence of frequently communications. Barriers of effective knowledge delivery among team members exist because of knowledge boundary. Despite the use of common terminologies for communication, team members may create different interpretations toward a same cluster of terminologies when they hold different understandings,...

Audiovisual communications is at the core of multimedia systems that allow users to interact across distances. It is common understanding that both audio and video are required for high quality interaction. While audiovisual information provides a user with a satisfactory impression of being present in a remote environment, physical interaction and manipulation is not supported. True immersion ...
