In this paper, the authors present a methodological approach for designing assistance systems conducive to learning. The theoretical framework is based on the activity system and the concept of expansive learning. From this, the authors develop the learning activity system. The application and further development of this theoretical framework is presented on the basis of an industrial application scenario of mechatronic reprocessing in the automotive industry. It includes a systematic approach to technology selection and design that serves as a practical action guide for companies designing assistance systems. In addition, dimensions conducive to learning are developed and linked to the activity system approach. This integrated model provides requirements for the design of an assistance system conducive to learning. The paper also describes concrete requirements and measures of a participatory design and implementation process.

This paper gives a theoretical framework to describe, analyze, and evaluate the driver’s overtrust in and overreliance on ADAS. Although “overtrust” and “overreliance” are often used as if they are synonyms, this paper differentiates the two notions rigorously. To this end, two aspects, (1) situation diagnostic aspect and (2) action selection aspect, are introduced. The first aspect is to describe overtrust, and it has three axes: (1-1) dimension of trust, (1-2) target object, and (1-3) chances of observation. The second aspect, (2), is to describe overreliance on the ADAS, and it has other three axes: (2-1) type of action selected, (2-2) benefits expected, and (2-3) time allowance for human intervention.

AbstractThis paper shows, how objective complexity and familiarity impact the subjective complexity and the time to make an action decision during the takeover task in a highly automated driving scenario. In the next generation of highly automated driving the driver remains as fallback and has to take over the driving task whenever the system reaches a limit. It is thus highly important to develop an assistance system that supports the individual driver based on information about the drivers’ current cognitive state. The impact of familiarity and complexity (objective and subjective) on the time to make an action decision during a takeover is investigated. To produce replicable driving scenarios and manipulate the independent variables situation familiarity and objective complexity, a driving simulator is used. Results show that the familiarity with a traffic situation as well as the objective complexity of the environment significantly influence the subjective complexity and the time to make an action decision. Furthermore, it is shown that the subjective complexity is a mediator variable between objective complexity/familiarity and the time to make an action decision. Complexity and familiarity are thus important parameters that have to be considered in the development of highly automated driving systems. Based on the presented mediation effect, the opportunity of gathering the drivers’ subjective complexity and adapting cognitive assistance systems accordingly is opened up. The results of this study provide a solid basis that enables an individualization of the takeover by implementing useful cognitive modeling to individualize cognitive assistance systems for highly automated driving.

In this decade, remarkable progress has been made in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Inspired by well-known services of cognitive assistance systems such as IBM Watson, Apple's Siri or Google Duplex, AI concepts and algorithms are widely discussed regarding their automation potentials in business, politics and society. At first glance, project management (PM) seems to be less suitable for automation due to the inherent uniqueness of projects by definition. However, AI is also creating new application possibilities in the PM area, which will be explored in this contribution by involving an extensive literature review as well as real-world examples. The objective of this article is to provide a current overview of AI approaches and available tools that can be used for automating tasks in business project management.

Industry 4.0 and Smart Factory are associated with major changes in the industrial world. The innovative forms of networking, communication and collaboration between people, machines and products have led to a new type of production system in which information and knowledge are exchanged more quickly and efficiently. As a result, among other things, the role of cognitive assistance systems and their supporting function for employees within production processes has gained in importance, both in the training phase and in the active work phase. Especially for on-the-job learning, these assistance systems open up a wide range of opportunities. This paper focuses on the opportunities and challenges associated with the use of cognitive assistance systems for workplace learning. We discuss current research on the potential uses of these assistance systems, particularly for process accomplishment as well as for supporting specific groups of employees. Furthermore, we address the limitations for the use of these systems. At the end of the paper, we identify three focus areas for the future development of AI in industrial processes and for research on this.

The field of Augmented Reality (AR) has received increasing attention in recent years, as AR can be applied to a wide range of problems. The use of AR offers great potential, especially in the industrial sector. Among many applications in this area, one promising application is the augmentation of cognitive assistance systems. Much research has already been done on the development of augmented support systems but it is still lacking on how to transform existing assistance systems into an AR application. This paper focuses on this transformation and presents a process model that intends to support the migration or digitalization of existing support systems into an AR application. An experimental study validates the proposed approach and derives recommendations for action.
