This panel highlights research supporting the design and optimization of information automation systems for nuclear power plants. Much of the nuclear industry is currently focused on modernization of plant systems, including potential introduction of advanced automation, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technologies. The introduction of novel technologies will change the nature of much of the work currently conducted at nuclear plants. Effectively integrating new technical systems with the user community is key to ensuring their effectiveness once deployed. In this panel session, we highlight progress on a program of research focused on providing the industry with tools and techniques to support effective modernization from a human-systems integration point of view, specifically with regard to information automation.
