Research collaborations are in progress (or recently completed) with:

  • Louise Comfort (of University of Pittsburgh) and Gary Klein (of The MITRE Corporation), on decision support dashboards for emergency responders.
  • Guanling Chen and Xiaoxiao Ma (of UMass Lowell) on automating usability evaluation in mobile applications.
  • David Hall and Loretta More (of Penn State), Mark Pfaff (Indiana University Indianapolis); and Gary Klein and Jennifer Matthieu of MITRE on decision support for emergency response command and control.
  • Holly Yanco of UMass Lowell and Julie Adams of Vanderbilt on an updated taxonomy for human-robot interaction.
  • Holly Yanco, Mark Micire, Munjal Desai, and Kate Tsui (all of UMass Lowell) and Brenden Keyes of MITRE on multi-touch interaction design for human-robot interaction. 
  • Holly Yanco, Mark Micire, Sarah Kuhn, and Jonathan Arambula (all of UMass Lowell) on decision-support technology improvements for Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) response.
  • Howard Goodell of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute Center for Computational Biology; and Georges Grinstein, Fanhai Yang, Haim Levkowitz, and Alex Baumann (all of UMass Lowell) on visualization of collaborative data exploration.
  • Stacey Scott of the University of Waterloo on situation awareness for unmanned aircraft systems.
  • Jean Scholtz of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and David Kieras of The University of Michigan on GOMS (Goals, Operators, Methods Selection rules) for human-robot interaction.
