Designing Soldier Systems
Author: John Martin
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1317152077
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 505
Book Description
This book focuses on contemporary human factors issues within the design of soldier systems and describes how they are currently being investigated and addressed by the U.S. Army to enhance soldier performance and effectiveness. Designing Soldier Systems approaches human factors issues from three main perspectives. In the first section, Chapters 1-5 focus on complexity introduced by technology, its impact on human performance, and how issues are being addressed to reduce cognitive workload. In the second section, Chapters 6-10 concentrate on obstacles imposed by operational and environmental conditions on the battlefield and how they are being mitigated through the use of technology. The third section, Chapters 11-21, is dedicated to system design and evaluation including the tools, techniques and technologies used by researchers who design soldier systems to overcome human physical and cognitive performance limitations as well as the obstacles imposed by environmental and operations conditions that are encountered by soldiers. The book will appeal to an international multidisciplinary audience interested in the design and development of systems for military use, including defense contractors, program management offices, human factors engineers, human system integrators, system engineers, and computer scientists. Relevant programs of study include those in human factors, cognitive science, neuroscience, neuroergonomics, psychology, training and education, and engineering.

Middleware Solutions for Wireless Internet of Things
Author: Paolo Bellavista
Publisher: MDPI
ISBN: 303921036X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
The proliferation of powerful but cheap devices, together with the availability of a plethora of wireless technologies, has pushed for the spread of the Wireless Internet of Things (WIoT), which is typically much more heterogeneous, dynamic, and general-purpose if compared with the traditional IoT. The WIoT is characterized by the dynamic interaction of traditional infrastructure-side devices, e.g., sensors and actuators, provided by municipalities in Smart City infrastructures, and other portable and more opportunistic ones, such as mobile smartphones, opportunistically integrated to dynamically extend and enhance the WIoT environment. A key enabler of this vision is the advancement of software and middleware technologies in various mobile-related sectors, ranging from the effective synergic management of wireless communications to mobility/adaptivity support in operating systems and differentiated integration and management of devices with heterogeneous capabilities in middleware, from horizontal support to crowdsourcing in different application domains to dynamic offloading to cloud resources, only to mention a few. The book presents state-of-the-art contributions in the articulated WIoT area by providing novel insights about the development and adoption of middleware solutions to enable the WIoT vision in a wide spectrum of heterogeneous scenarios, ranging from industrial environments to educational devices. The presented solutions provide readers with differentiated point of views, by demonstrating how the WIoT vision can be applied to several aspects of our daily life in a pervasive manner.

Book Description
"The U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) held a formal In-House Researcher Colloquium on 20 November 1997 in Alexandria, Virginia. The main purpose of the colloquium was to provide an opportunity for cross-unit discussion among ARI's more junior researchers. The eight researchers who presented research findings at the colloquium represented ARI's Armored Forces Research Unit, the Automated Training Methods Research Unit, the Fort Leavenworth Research Unit, the infantry Forces Research Unit, the Organization and Personnel Resources Research Unit, the Rotary-Wing Aviation Research Unit, the Selection and Assignment Research Unit, and the Simulator Systems Research Unit. Each research topic was specifically selected by the Research Unit Chief as an example of the best of research being performed at the unit. This report provides brief summaries of the research and biographies of the researchers. It also serves as an example of the range of behavioral and social science research being addressed by in-house researchers at ARI as well as of the backgrounds of ARI's research staff."--DTIC.
