Abstract
Much research has been performed examining various aspects of the relationship between displays and controls in the aircraft cockpit as well as other, related contexts. Yet, the applicability of this work to the design or evaluation of modern aircraft systems is still limited. One reason for this limitation is the disproportionate focus on the physical (spatial) aspects of display-control relationships, often referred to as stimulus-response (S-R) compatibility, relative to the cognitive or perceptual aspects. Another reason for the limited applicability of this research to applied systems design is the lack of computer-aided models and automated tools which incorporate the established principles and guidelines. It is argued here that in order to optimize both the design process and design result of future cockpit interfaces, models of cognitive compatibility must be developed and incorporated into computer-based design and evaluation tools.
