Book The Multitasking Myth

Download or read book The Multitasking Myth written by Dr Immanuel Barshi and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite growing concern with the effects of concurrent task demands on human performance, and research demonstrating that these demands are associated with vulnerability to error, so far there has been only limited research into the nature and range of concurrent task demands in real-world settings. This book presents a set of NASA studies that characterize the nature of concurrent task demands confronting airline flight crews in routine operations, as opposed to emergency situations. The authors analyze these demands in light of what is known about cognitive processes, particularly those of attention and memory, with the focus upon inadvertent omissions of intended actions by skilled pilots. The studies reported within the book employed several distinct but complementary methods: ethnographic observations, analysis of incident reports submitted by pilots, and cognitive task analysis. They showed that concurrent task management comprises a set of issues distinct from (though related to) mental workload, an area that has been studied extensively by human factors researchers for more than 30 years. This book will be of direct relevance to aviation psychologists and to those involved in aviation training and operations. It will also interest individuals in any domain that involves concurrent task demands, for example the work of emergency room medical teams. Furthermore, the countermeasures presented in the final chapter to reduce vulnerability to errors associated with concurrent task demands can readily be adapted to work in diverse domains.

Book The Restructuring of British Energy

Download or read book The Restructuring of British Energy written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2006-03-17 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British Energy was privatised in 1996. In 2002, the price of electricity fell and on 5 September 2002, the Company applied to the Department of Trade and Industry (the Department) for financial assistance. In November 2002, the Department agreed to provide financial assistance with the proviso that the Company's financial arrangements would be restructured. This report deals with the financial aid that the Department gave to British Energy and the terms of the restructuring of British Energy. The Department decided to intervene because, in its assessment, unplanned closures of British Energy's nuclear power stations would have had safety implications and put electricity supplies at risk. The Department took on responsibility for a large proportion of the company's liabilities, to be funded through a Nuclear Liabilities Fund, though there was no up-to-date estimate of those liabilities. (These estimates are to be updated every five years now.) In February 2006 British Energy estimated liabilities at £5,287 million. The restructuring mechanism is for a cash sweep, so that the company contributes more to the Fund when it is doing well. In the 12 months following completion of restructuring in January 2005, the wholesale electricity price rose sharply and the Company's share price more than doubled. The electricity market has, however, proved to be particularly volatile over recent years. The Nuclear Liabilities Fund is left particularly exposed to British Energy's financial and operational performance. Day-to-day responsibility for monitoring various aspects of the Company's performance currently lies with a number of teams within the Department. There remains a real risk that information learned by the different teams is not shared quickly and evaluated and that insufficient staff resources are committed to safeguarding the taxpayer's significant interest. To assist its management of the taxpayer's interest, the Department will need to prepare sufficiently comprehensive contingency plans to enable it to act quickly under the range of scenarios that might arise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canadian Rangers stand sentinel in the farthest reaches of our country. For more than six decades, this dedicated group of citizen-soldiers has quietly served as Canada's eyes, ears, and voice in isolated coastal and northern communities. Drawing on official records, interviews, and participation in Ranger exercises, Lackenbauer argues that the organization offers an inexpensive way for Canada to "show the flag" from coast to coast to coast. The Rangers have also laid the foundation for a successful partnership between the modern state and Aboriginal peoples, a partnership rooted in local knowledge and crosscultural understanding.
