Systems AND Users define performance
What determines the number of aircraft that can be handled in a sectorwithout incident?
The combination of User and System!
Why is most money spent on system safety when the majority of errorsare human related?
The interface between User and System should be optimised.
Users of ATM systems are still confronted with inhomogeneousproducts from different vendors.
Key factor is USABILITY
Page: 21© FREQUENTIS 2014 Presentation Date: 2014-04-04
FRQ smartTools - Airport Show Dubai May 2014_V10.pptx Author: P.Mayo
What is Usability?
usability [yooza billati] – fit for use, capable of being used
«The extent to which a product can be used by specified users to achieve specifiedgoals with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a specified context of use.»(ISO 9241)
Usability is the measure of the quality of a user’s experience when interacting with aproduct or system.
Usability main factors:– little effort to learn
– recall and recognition
– minimised user mistakes
– subjective user satisfaction
For each system different factors are of importance

Why Paper Flightstrips?
Paper Flightstrips are still thecommonly used tools for flight data handling.
Paper Flightstrips have evolved for decades.
Paper Flightstrips are ergonomically proven.
Controllers are used to mentally translate PaperFlightstrips into a 3D picture (“SituationAwareness”)
Controllers are suspicious to “other” instrumentsfor flight data handling
Paper Strips can’t fail
Page: 54© FREQUENTIS 2014 Presentation Date: 2014-04-04
FRQ smartTools - Airport Show Dubai May 2014_V10.pptx Author: P.Mayo
Why Not Paper Flightstrips?
Paper Flightstrips do notsupport real-time data flow
Flight plan data update cannot bedone (easily)
Hand-written information is lostto the succeeding workflow
Data on a Paper Flightstrips cannotbe shared.
Recurring costs of paper and stripprinter
