TL;DR

To compensate for the limitations of the design approach above and to optimize supervisory control burdens, an expert system that prompts the operator to change to the right screen at the right time is proposed.

Abstract

In this paper, methods of designing human interfaces for supervisory control systems are proposed. Human factors engineering is applied to hardware systems design, especially layout design, in terms of visual field and visual angle. Cognitive engineering is applied to software systems design, especially the design and evaluation of constructing screens, using the DEMATEL method of analyzing structure. To compensate for the limitations of the design approach above and to optimize supervisory control burdens, an expert system that prompts the operator to change to the right screen at the right time is proposed.
