“…In addition to bottom-up, data driven processes, we used top-down, model driven processes to understand the DRC role and define functional and information requirements (Potter, et al, 2000;Smith, et al, 2012;Smith, et al, 2006). We conceptualized the DRC role as a distributed adaptive planning and supervisory control task (Smith, et al, 2011), which allowed us to use guidance from other literatures (e.g., Hollnagel & Woods, 2005;Rasmussen, 1986;Sheridan, 2002) to develop support requirements for the DRC.…”

Airport departure demand that exceeds capacity can lead to longer departure queues than necessary. Departure metering is one approach to managing the flow of aircraft to the departure queue so as to build an appropriate inventory of departures on the surface. The Departure Reservoir Coordinator (DRC) is an envisioned role that will be responsible for managing a departure metering procedure. This paper describes a functional analysis of the DRC role and requirements for supporting a person or team in that role that were derived from the functional analysis. Results of the functional analysis were used to develop display concepts that were evaluated by air traffic controllers.

“…These requirements drove the design of display concepts that have been used for multiple activities (Fernandes, et al, 2011;Smith, et al, 2011). Relevant results from two additional exercises are discussed here.…”
