Driving is a daily encountered task for many. Unlike the majority of life’s daily hassles however, the act of driving has significant environmental repercussions. Supporting the development of environmentally conscious driving techniques and developing tools and interfaces to reduce the environmental impact of driving is warranted in order to minimise the negative impact of these actions. The current paper documents the development of a complete Cognitive Work Analysis (CWA) to support environmentally conscious driving. The paper proposes that the use of the CWA approach enabled examination of the fuel-efficient driving task and consideration of the role numerous objects, agents and skills can play in facilitating fuel-efficient driving. In addition to the traditional CWA process, this paper shows how the revealed finding can be used as the basis for developing specifications that can be taken forward to allow for the development of novel in-vehicle interfaces to support fuel-efficient driving.

Abstract

Driving is a daily encountered task for many. Unlike the majority of life’s daily hassles however, the act of driving has significant environmental repercussions. Supporting the development of environmentally conscious driving techniques and developing tools and interfaces to reduce the environmental impact of driving is warranted in order to minimise the negative impact of these actions. The current paper documents the development of a complete Cognitive Work Analysis (CWA) to support environmentally conscious driving. The paper proposes that the use of the CWA approach enabled examination of the fuel-efficient driving task and consideration of the role numerous objects, agents and skills can play in facilitating fuel-efficient driving. In addition to the traditional CWA process, this paper shows how the revealed finding can be used as the basis for developing specifications that can be taken forward to allow for the development of novel in-vehicle interfaces to support fuel-efficient driving.
