Abstract:
Displaying both the strategy that information analysis automation employs to makes its judgments and variability in the task environment may improve human judgment performance, especially in cases where this variability impacts the judgment performance of the information analysis automation. This work investigated the contribution of providing either information analysis automation strategy information, task environment information, or both, on human judgment performance in a domain where noisy sensor data are used by both the human and the information analysis automation to make judgments. In a simplified air traffic conflict prediction experiment, 32 participants made probability of horizontal conflict judgments under different display content conditions. After being exposed to the information analysis automation, judgment achievement significantly improved for all participants as compared to judgments without any of the automation’s information. Participants provided with additional display content pertaining to cue variability in the task environment had significantly higher aided judgment achievement compared to those provided with only the automation’s judgment of a probability of conflict. When designing information analysis automation for environments where the automation’s judgment achievement is impacted by noisy environmental data, it may be beneficial to show additional task environment information to the human judge in order to improve judgment performance.

Abstract:
In many emerging civilian and military operations, human operators are increasingly being tasked to supervise multiple robotic uninhabited vehicles (UVs) with the support of automation. As 100% automation reliability cannot be assured, it is important to understand the effects of automation imperfection on performance. In addition, adaptive aiding may help counter any adverse effects of static (fixed) automation. Using a high-fidelity multi-UV simulation involving both air and ground vehicles, two experiments examined the effects of automation reliability and adaptive automation on human-system performance with different levels of task load. In Experiment 1, participants performed a reconnaissance mission while assisted with an automatic target recognition (ATR) system whose reliability was low, medium, or high. Overall human-robot team performance was higher than with either human or ATR performance alone. In Experiment 2, participants performed a similar reconnaissance mission with no ATR, static automation, or with adaptive automation keyed to task load. Participant trust and self-confidence were higher and workload was lower for adaptive automation compared with the other conditions. The results show that human-robot teams can benefit from imperfect static automation even in high task load conditions and that adaptive automation can provide additional benefits in trust and workload.

Abstract:
Two experiments examined imperfect automation decision aids for maritime collision avoidance. In Experiment 1, the algorithm was driven purely by safety, recommending turning your ship in the direction that produced the greatest separation from a hazard ship. In Experiment 2, the algorithm incorporated two additional factors known to influence ship collision avoidance maneuvers: efficiency and procedural adherence to established “rules of the road.” In both experiments, results revealed heavy but not total reliance on the aid. A strong influence of categorical rules of the road was indicated by compliance with recommendations in concurrence to those conventions, even as they reduced continuous parameters of safety, particularly in Experiment 2 when the rules were incorporated in the algorithm. This illustrates the powerful influence of categorical procedural algorithm elements over continuous quantitative ones in affecting automation compliance. Results also revealed the dissociation between rated trust in, and behavioral dependence on decision aiding automation.

Abstract:
Two experiments are reported that investigate to what extent performance consequences of automated aids are dependent on the distribution of functions between human and automation and on the experience an operator has with an aid. In the first experiment, performance consequences of three automated aids for the support of a supervisory control task were compared. Aids differed in degree of automation (DOA). Compared with a manual control condition, primary and secondary task performance improved and subjective workload decreased with automation support, with effects dependent on DOA. Performance costs include return-to-manual performance issues that emerged for the most highly automated aid and effects of complacency and automation bias, respectively, which emerged independent of DOA. The second experiment specifically addresses how automation bias develops over time and how this development is affected by prior experience with the system. Results show that automation failures entail stronger effects than positive experience (reliably working aid). Furthermore, results suggest that commission errors in interaction with automated aids can depend on three sorts of automation bias effects: (a) withdrawal of attention in terms of incomplete cross-checking of information, (b) active discounting of contradictory system information, and (c) inattentive processing of contradictory information analog to a “looking-but-not-seeing” effect.

Abstract:
We introduce a robot developed to perform feedback-based experiments, such as droplet experiments, a common type of experiments in artificial chemical life research. These experiments are particularly well suited for automation because they often stretch over long periods of time, possibly hours, and often require that the human takes action in response to observed events such as changes in droplet size, count, shape, or clustering or declustering of multiple droplets. Our robot is designed to monitor long-term experiments and, based on the feedback from the experiment, interact with it. The combination of precise automation, accurately collected experiment data, and integrated analysis and modeling software makes real-time interaction with the experiment feasible, as opposed to traditional offline processing of experiments. Last but not least, we believe the low cost of our platform can promote artificial life research. Furthermore, prevalently, findings from an experiment will inspire redesign for novel experiments. In addition, the robot’s open-source software enables easy modification of experiments. We will cover two case studies for application of our robot in feedback-based experiments and demonstrate how our robot can not only automate these experiments, collect data, and interact with the experiments intelligently but also enable chemists to perform formerly infeasible experiments.

Abstract:
With ongoing improvements in vehicle automation, research on automation trust has attracted considerable attention. In order to explore effects of automation trust on drivers’ visual distraction, we designed a three-factor 2 (trust type: high trust group, low trust group) × 2 (video entertainment: variety-show videos, news videos) × 3 (measurement stage: 1–3) experiment. 48 drivers were recruited in Dalian, China for the experiment. With a driving simulator, we used detection-response tasks (DRT) to measure each driver’s performance. Their eye movements were recorded, and automation-trust scale was used to divide participants into high trust group and low trust group. The results show that: (1) drivers in the high trust group has lower mental workload and paid more attention to visual non-driving-related tasks; (2) video entertainment also has an impact on distraction behavior, variety-show videos catch more attention than news videos. The findings of the present study indicate that drivers with high automation trust are more likely to be involved in non-driving-related visual tasks.

Abstract:
Context. Performance testing, among other types of non-functional testing, is necessary to assess software quality. Most often, manual approach is employed to test a system for its performance. This approach has several setbacks. The existing body of knowledge lacks empirical evidence on automation of non-functional testing and is largely focused on functional testing. Objectives. The objective of the present study is to evaluate a test framework that automates performance testing. A large-scale distributed project is selected as the context to achieve this objective. The rationale for choosing such a project is that the proposed test framework was designed with an intention to adapt and tailor according to any project’s characteristics. Methods. An experiment was conducted with 15 participants at Ericsson R&D department, India to evaluate an automated test framework. Repeated measures design with counter balancing method was used to understand the accuracy and time taken while using the test framework. To assess the ease-of-use of the proposed framework, a questionnaire was distributed among the experiment participants. Statistical techniques were used to accept or reject the hypothesis. The data analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel. Results. It is observed that the automated test framework is superior to the traditional manual approach. There is a significant reduction in the average time taken to run a test case. Further, the number of errors resulting in a typical testing process is minimized. Also, the time spent by a tester during the actual test is phenomenally reduced while using the automated approach. Finally, as perceived by software testers, the automated approach is easier to use when compared to the manual test approach. Conclusions. It can be concluded that automation of non-functional testing will result in overall reduction in project costs and improves quality of software tested. This will address important performance aspects such as system availability, durability and uptime. It was observed that it is not sufficient if the software meets the functional requirements, but is also necessary to conform to the non-functional requirements.

Abstract:
Computer applications are no longer local installations on our computers. Many modern web applications and services rely on an internet connection to a centralized server to access the full functionality of the application. High availability architectures can be used to provide redundancy in case of failure to ensure customers always have access to the server. Due to the complexity of such systems and the need for stability, deployments are often avoided and new features and bug fixes cannot be delivered to the end user quickly. In this project, an automation system is proposed to allow for deployments to a high availability architecture while ensuring high availability. The purposed automation system is then tested in a controlled experiment to see if it can deliver what it promises. During low amounts of traffic, the deployment system showed it could make a deployment with a statistically insignificant change in error rate when compared to normal operations. Similar results were found during medium to high levels of traffic for successful deployments, but if the system had to recover from a failed deployment there was an increase in errors. However, the response time during the experiment showed that the system had a significant effect on the response time of the web application resulting in the availability being compromised in certain situations.

Abstract:
With ZigBee being the world’s leading IoT protocol, users are vulnerable to attacks on the wireless communication between ZigBee devices and the information that can be gained from them. For users to protect themselves from potential attacks they need to be aware of what information can be extracted and how it can be countered. Through an eavesdropping experiment, done using three individual sensors from different vendors, various packets with potential for misuse have been identified within the area of building security. With the potential areas of misuse identified, there is also a need for countermeasures against these threats. Countermeasures were identified through a collection of literature that was summarized in order to provide a wide range of alternatives, suitable to different scenarios. The experiment was limited to the functions of the sensors used, as well as traffic using the ZigBee protocol. This study pinpoints a potential for misuse of the ZigBee traffic sent between devices and shows that the ZigBee protocol is fundamentally flawed from a security aspect. Whilst countermeasures exist, they are not applicable to every situation which is why the ZigBee protocol itself needs further development to be considered secure.

Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to develop algorithms for application-oriented input design. This procedure takes the model application into account when designing experiments for system identification. This thesis is divided into two parts. The first part considers the theory of application-oriented input design, with special attention to Model Predictive Control (MPC). We start by studying how to find a convex approximation of the set of models that result in acceptable control performance using analytical methods when controllers with no closed-form control law, for e.g., MPC are employed. The application-oriented input design is formulated in time domain to enable handling of signals constraints. The framework is extended to closed-loop systems where two cases are considered i.e., when the plant is controlled by a general but known controller and for the case of MPC. To this end, an external stationary signal is designed via graph theory. Different sources of uncertainty in application-oriented input design are investigated and a robust application-oriented input design framework is proposed. The second part of this thesis is devoted to the problem of estimating the number of occupants based on the information available to HVAC systems in buildings. The occupancy estimation is first formulated as a two-tier problem. In the first tier, the room dynamic is identified using temporary measurements of occupancy. In the second tier, the identified model is employed to formulate the problem as a fused-lasso problem. The proposed method is further developed to be used as a multi-room estimator using a physics-based model. However, since it is not always possible to collect measurements of occupancy, we proceed by proposing a blind identification algorithm which estimates the room dynamic and occupancy, simultaneously. Finally, the application-oriented input design framework is employed to collect data that is informative enough for occupancy estimation purposes.

Abstract:
The complexity of biological systems constitute a significant problem for the development of biological models. This inspired the creation of a few Computational Scientific Discovery systems that attempt to address this problem in the context of metabolomics through the use of computers and automation. These systems have important limitations, however, like limited revision and experiment design abilities and the inability to revise refuted models. The goal of this project was to address some of these limitations. The system developed for this project, "Huginn", was based on the use of Abductive Logic Programming to automate crucial development tasks, like experiment design, testing consistency of models with experimental results and revision of refuted models. The main questions of this project were (1) whether the proposed system can successfully develop Metabolic Network Models and (2) whether it can do it better than its predecessors. To answer these questions we tested Huginn in a simulated environment. Its task was to relearn the structures of disrupted fragments of a state-of-the-art model of yeast metabolism. The results of the simulations show that Huginn can relearn the structure of metabolic models, and that it can do it better than previous systems thanks to the specific features introduced in it. Furthermore, we show how the design of extended crucial experiments can be automated using Answer Set Programming for the first time.

Il controllo di mani protesiche basato su elettromiografia (EMG) ha le potenzialità di ristabilire funzioni motorie ai pazienti che hanno subito un’amputazione, migliorando sensibilimente la qualità della vita. Tuttavia rimangono problemi aperti nell’ottenere un controllo ricco di movimenti e stabile, fra cui la presenza del limb position effect. La tesi si concentra nel cercare di ridurre questa causa di instabilità, proponendo una versione modificata dell’algoritmo Ridge Regression with Random Fourier Features, reso incrementale e arricchito di feedback all’utente. Questo approccio viene poi validato tramite un esperimento su 12 soggetti intatti, per verificare l’incremento di performance, e tramite un ulteriore studio pilota su un soggetto amputato, a seguito dell’adattamento del software ad una mano protesica in via di sviluppo.

Abstract:
O processo de automatização de teste de software possui alto custo envolvido em sistemas de larga escala, pois exigem cenários de teste complexos e tempos de execução extremamente longos. Além disso, cada etapa do processo de teste requer recursos computacionais e um tempo considerável para a execução de muitos casos de teste, tornando-se um gargalo para as empresas de Tecnologia da Informação (TI). Neste contexto, os benefícios e oportunidades oferecidos pela combinação da computação em nuvem com o Teste como Serviço (Testing as a Service, TaaS), que é considerado um novo modelo de negócio e de serviço atraente e promissor, podem proporcionar um impacto positivo na redução do tempo de execução dos testes de maneira custo-efetiva e aumentar o retorno sobre o investimento ou Return on investment (ROI). Todavia, existe o problema de vendor lock-in, que é o aprisionamento do usuário à plataforma de um fornecedor específico ou serviço de teste, ocasionado pela dificuldade de migrar de um fornecedor TaaS para outro, limitando a utilização dessas novas tecnologias de maneira efetiva e eficiente, impedindo assim, a ampla adoção do TaaS. Como os estudos existentes não são rigorosos ou conclusivos e, principalmente, devido à falta de evidência empírica na área de serviço de teste, muitas questões devem ser investigadas na perspectiva da migração entre os provedores de TaaS. O objetivo deste trabalho é reduzir o impacto ocasionado pelo problema de vendor lock-in no processo de automatização de testes na computação em nuvem, na escrita, configuração, execução e gerenciamento dos resultados de testes automatizados. Neste contexto, foi desenvolvido o protótipo da abordagem intitulada Multi-TaaS por meio de uma biblioteca Java como prova de conceito. A abordagem Multi-TaaS é uma camada de abstração e a sua arquitetura permite abstrair e flexibilizar a troca de fornecedores de TaaS de forma portável, pois permite encapsular toda a complexidade da implementação do engenheiro de software ao desacoplar o teste automatizado de qual plataforma TaaS ele será executado, bem como abstrair os aspectos da comunicação e integração entre as APIs REST proprietárias dos diferentes fornecedores de TaaS. Além disso, a abordagem Multi-TaaS possibilita também sumarizar os resultados dos testes automatizados de forma independente das tecnologias da plataforma TaaS subjacente. Foram realizadas avaliações comparativas da eficiência, efetividade, dificuldade e do esforço de migração entre as abordagens Multi-TaaS e abordagem convencional, por meio de experimentos controlados. Os resultados deste trabalho indicam que a nova abordagem permite facilitar a troca do serviço de teste, melhorar a eficiência e, principalmente, reduzir o esforço e os custos de manutenção na migração entre fornecedores de TaaS. Os estudos realizados no experimento controlado são promissores e podem auxiliar os engenheiros de software na tomada de decisão quanto aos riscos associados ao vendor lock-in no TaaS. Por fim, a abordagem Multi-TaaS contribui, principalmente, para a portabilidade dos testes automatizados na nuvem e da sumarização dos resultados dos testes e, consequentemente, possibilita que o modelo de serviço TaaS na computação em nuvem seja amplamente adotado, de forma consciente, no futuro.
The automation of software testing involves high costs in large-scale systems, since it requires complex test scenarios and extremely long execution times. Moreover, each of its steps demands computational resources and considerable time for running many test cases, which makes it a bottleneck for Information Technology (IT) companies. The benefits and opportunities offered by the combination of cloud computing and Testing as a Service (TaaS), considered a new business and service model, can reduce the execution time of tests in a cost-effective way and improve Return on Investment (ROI). However, the lock-in problem, i.e., the imprisonment of the user in the platform of a specific vendor or test service caused by the difficult migration from one TaaS provider to another limits the effective use of such new technologies and prevents the widespread adoption of TaaS. As studies conducted are neither rigorous, nor conclusive, and mainly due to the lack of empirical evidence, many issues must be investigated from the perspective of migration among TaaS providers. This research aims at reductions in the impact of the vendor lock-in problem on the automation process of testing in cloud computing, writing, configuration, execution and management of automated test results. The prototype of the Multi- TaaS approach was developed through a Java library as a proof of concept. The Multi-TaaS approach is an abstraction layer and its architecture enables the abstraction and flexibilization of the exchange of TaaS providers in a portable way, once the complexity of the software engineers implementation can be encapsulated. The two main advantages of Multi-TaaS are the decoupling of the automated test from the TaaS platform on which it will be executed and the abstraction of the communication and integration aspects among the proprietary REST APIs of the different TaaS providers. The approach also enables the summarization of automated test results independently of the underlying TaaS platform technologies. A comparative evaluation between Multi-TaaS and conventional migration approaches regarding the difficulty, efficiency, effectiveness and effort of migration among TaaS providers was conducted through controlled experiments.The results show the approach facilitates the exchange of test service, improves efficiency and reduces the effort and maintenance costs of migration among TaaS providers. The studies conducted in the controlled experiment are promising and can assist software engineers in decision-making regarding the risks associated with vendor lock-in in TaaS. The Multi-TaaS approach contributes mainly to the portability of automated tests in the cloud and summarization of their results. Finally, this research enables also the widespread adoption of the TaaS service model in cloud computing, consciously, in the future.

Abstract:
Developments of commercial self-driving vehicle (SDV) technology has a potential for a paradigm shift in traffic control technology. Contrary to some previous research approaches, this research argues that, as any other technology, traffic control technology for SDVs should be developed having in mind improved quality of life through a sustainable developmental approach. Consequently, this research emphasizes upon the social perspective of sustainability, considering its neglect in the conventional control principles, and the importance of behavioral considerations for accurately predicting impacts upon economic or environmental factors. The premise is that traffic control technology can affect the distribution of advantages and disadvantages in a society, and thus it requires a framework of social justice. The framework of social justice is inspired by John Rawls' Theory of Justice as fairness, and tries to protect the inviolability of each user in a system. Consequently, the control objective is the distribution of delay per individual, considering for example that the effect of delay is not the same if a person is traveling to a grocery store as opposed to traveling to a hospital. The notion of social justice is developed as a priority system, with end-user responsibility, where user is able to assign a specific Priority Level for each individual trip with SDV. Selected Priority Level is used to determine the right-of-way for each self-driving vehicle at an intersection. As a supporting mechanism to the priority system, there is a structure of non-monetary Priority Credits. Rules for using Priority Credits are determined using knowledge from social science research and through empirical evaluation using surveys, interviews, and web-based experiment. In the physical space, the intersection control principle is developed as hierarchical self-organization, utilizing communication, sensing, and in-vehicle technological capabilities. This distributed control approach should enable robustness against failure, and scalability for future expansion. The control mechanism has been modeled as an agent-based system, allowing evaluation of effects upon safety and user delay. In conclusion, by reaching across multiple disciplines, this development provides the promise and the challenge for evolving SDV control technology. Future efforts for SDV technology development should continue to rely upon transparent public involvement and understanding of human decision-making.

Abstract:
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), also called drones, are used for Search And Rescue (SAR) missions, mainly in the form of a pilot manoeuvring a single drone. However, the increase in labour to cover larger areas quickly would result in a very high cost and time spent per rescue operation. Therefore, there is a need for an easy to use, low-cost, and highly autonomous swarm of drones for SAR missions where the detection and rescue times are kept to a minimum. In this thesis, a Subsumption-based architecture is proposed, which combines multiple behaviours to create more complex behaviours. An investigation of (1) what are the critical aspects of controlling a swarm of drones, (2) how can a combination of different behavioural algorithms increase the performance of a swarm of drones, and (3) what benchmarks are necessary when evaluating the fitness of the behavioural algorithms. The proposed architecture was simulated in AirSim using the SimpleFlight flight controller through experiments that evaluated the individual layers and missions that simulated real-life scenarios. The results validate the modularity and reliability of the architecture, where the architecture has the potential for improvements in future iterations. For the search area of 400×400meters, the swarm consistently produced an average area coverage of at least 99.917% and found all the missing people in all missions, with the slowest average being 563 seconds. Compared to related work, the result produced similar or better times when scaled to the same proportions and higher area coverage. As comparisons of results in SAR missions can be difficult, the introduction of Active time can serve as a benchmark for others in future swarm performance measurements.
