Cognitive

Situation awareness is the perception of the elements in the environment within a volume of time and space, the comprehension of their meaning and the projection

  • f their status in the near future (Endsley, 2000)

Collaborative work

  • “Awareness is an understanding of the activities of others, which

provides a context for our own activity” (Dourish and Bellotti, 1992).

  • Awareness “refers to a person’s being or becoming aware of

something” “Awareness is pick up what is going around” (Schmidt, 2002).

  • Awareness” involve adopting the right information at the right time to the

right actor (Gorman, 2006 ; Salmon, 2010)

Situation Awareness Inter-organizational collaboration Carry out activities Make decision Manage the crisis What is Awareness? Information Awareness is picking up and perceive the needed and the relevant information at the right time about what is going around for a given context in order to achieve the interdependent activities 1- Actors know previously what they have to pick up from others in each situation. 2- Actors have to pick what they have not anticipate previously and which is relevant to achieve their activity

Findings

12

Event Description Information awareness issues (difficulties to pick up what is going around) Shooting in commercial stores E Accident bus in highway (D1)

  • CP are not set up in the first hour of crisis
  • EMS could not access to the field to treat victims and wait information

from firefighter (D1)

  • “We need to identify who is the interlocutor for each service and who is

the decision maker” (I6)

  • CRO cannot find an interlocutor from EMS to have a medical answer

(E1)

  • Potential transmitter may have the relevant information for others to

embed and adjust their actions, but he does not communicate it or he communicates fragment information (I7)

  • “We are not able to access to the field, we need to know the perimeter
  • f exclusion, information about victims and what could we do” (I6, D1)

“We realize that we are really advanced and we wait the vehicles of firefighter, that police give us the information of access… the transmitter do not give information at the right time” (I6,D1) Weak interaction between actors in inter-organization: difficulty to identify the different interlocutor and interact with each other and then pick up what they are interested in and what is going around Unavailalbility of the right information at the right time

SLIDE 13

Findings

13

Event Description Information awareness issues (difficulties to pick up what is going around) Shooting in commercial stores E1 Accident bus in highway (D1) Shift phase between the different levels bottom-up & top-down “The time is not the same in the field as in the CC of EMS, and in the DOC ” (I6) (E1) “We are not necessarily aware at the right time about the decisions made strategic level” (I6) “There is a problem of information top-down, we are not aware about the major decision made in SL and they are not communicated to actors on field” (I6,D2) “Sometimes, the Commander of rescue makes decision. However there is a delay to receive this decision” (I6)

  • Actors do not exchange information about the victims identified and in

which area, so the information reported are different (E1, D1, I6) “The prefect needs reliable information, thus he requests the verification and confirmation of information. Sometimes the red (Firefighter) reports a victim number, the white (EMS) reports another and idem for the blue (Police).” (I6) “The identity of victims is the big problem. The crusaders information may be different from the different services” (I8) “The non-verification of information may even generate the shock to the citizens and families of victims involved” (I9). Information flow is slow Information reliability

Findings

15 Information Awareness (IA) issues:

Difficulties to pick up the relevant of what is going around in order to integrate and align our own activity

Causes Consequences

Actor may know previously what he has to pick up from other activities but still have difficulty in IA (e.g. actor need to pick up if there is an access road is established in site and the information related to it in order to integrate his activity): +Weak interaction between actors:

  • Actors are remote and it is difficult to

identify interlocutor of each organization so that he/she can picks up and coordinates activities..

  • CP are not set up at the beginning of

crisis and this lead to the missing of information awareness (also in the case when actor does not necessarily know what there is as unexpected event and must be aware about it to adjust its activity:) +Info unavailability at the right time: potential transmitter may have the relevant information for others to embed and adjust their actions, but he does not communicate it

  • r

he communicates fragment information

  • difficulty to identify to whom display an

activity Missing visual information Missing actors network:

  • Roles,
  • position
  • Equip…

Missing awareness about actors needs :

  • Missing awareness about activities

dependencies

  • Missing awareness about others

actors priorities and objectives Workload in tactical level CP have workload Current tools (As radio frequency) are not efficient as they are based on direct communication and do not enable achieving information awarenss. Coordinating activities Activities achievement “ambulance drivers could not carry victims to hospitals because they are not aware about information of the escape route” (I6) Tactical/ Strategic decision making Major decision making “We make the tactical decision on the field, thus we must have a global view of the field to make the decision” (I6) Time-consuming “… it is the time-consuming when we do not transmit the right information to the right actor…” (I6)

System Support

The central problem of Information Awareness in collaborative work is how actors could pick up and perceive the needed and the relevant information at the right time about what is going around for a given context in order to achieve the interdependent activities

  • Missing awareness about activities

dependencies

  • Missing awareness about others

actors priorities and objectives

Waste of time to request information directly to the actor (risk of disturbance, eg E1: UAS requesting the information from the CP)

Workload in tactical level CP have workload

(1) the provider of information may pay the cost instead he benefits. (2) the actor can receive information that the sender believes relevant for others whereas he cannot determine the relevance without the context of other own activity (3) sender cannot predict relevant information for others and time

N° Descriptif du scénario 1 La police est arrivée au site en premier à 18h29 et a commencé de faire l’enquête judiciaire ainsi qu’il a bloqué certaines voies. L’équipe samu a eu une information sur la localisation du site et a besoin de savoir la voie d’accès 2 A 18h36. La police a trouvé une voiture vide des braqueurs. Aussi bien, le site n’est pas tout à fait neutralisé. l’équipe SMUR est arrivée sur le site à 18h33 et il aurait dû changer la voie. elle a aussi commencé l’identification des victimes dans le magasin vers 18h44. 3 A 18h35, les pompiers sont arrivés, la sécurité locale transmet les informations sur la localisation des victimes. Les pompiers ont commencé l’identification et l’étiquetage des victimes par la fiche médiale de l’avant. Le samu doit savoir ce qui a été fait par les pompiers et vice versa instantanément. 4 Les différentes équipes ont besoin d’avoir AI sur les victimes, leurs nombres et localisation 5 COS essaye de trouver un interlocuteur auprès de SAMU pour avoir une réponse médicale 6 Le samu est prêt pour évacuer les victimes, il a besoin de l’information voie évacuation 7 Un pompier a évacué des victimes et les a envoyés à l’hôpital sans le dire au médecin SAMU 8 Au niveau COD, la cellule de crise a besoin d’avoir une liste exhaustive des victimes en temps réel

Conclusion & Perspectives

Summary :

  • Empirical study to understand the inter-organizational collaboration practices.
  • Information awareness issues, causes and consequences
  • Semi-Structured and flexible system to distribute Information Awareness for

each actor and level based on:

– Modeling activities interdependencies: to identify actors needs for each context and structure information with meta data – Actors network: roles, position, function etc

  • Mitigation of the time-consuming
  • Instantaneous information

Perspective:

  • Perform the system and functionalities: Semantic approach, ergonomie

d’interface

  • Validation expérimentale avec les utilisateurs dans un exercice de crise.
  • Gestion de l’interface par rapport à la capacité cognitive de l’utilisateur et

capacité d’interface
