RCS 2015 - 3rd International Symposium on Resilient Cognitive Systems

The major purpose of this symposium is to extend and endorse particular concepts that will generate novel research and codify resilience in next generation cognitive system designs.
A growing number of cyber, physical, and hybrid work environments exhibit critical interplays of engineering systems design with human factors and ergonomics research applications. The Cognitive Systems track will explore how people, individually and teams, engage in cognitive work in complex, high consequence settings. We will emphasize technology designs, operating concepts and procedures, and decision-making strategies that improve time-critical human and engineering system performance. Joint sessions with the Control Systems and Cyber Systems Symposia will address multi-function aspects of resilience and robustness of systems integrating humans, automation, and system management resources.
