The Role of Multimodal Communication in Cooperation: The Cases of Air Traffic Control

In the field of air traffic control, the rapid increase of demands leads to considering major technological improvements. Our research takes place in the context of a global program aiming at the design and validation of cooperative tools for en route air traffic controllers; this program, called ERATO (En Route Air Traffic Organizer), is based on a specific approach starting from the identification of users' requirements on the design and validation of the set of decision aids.
