Zusammenfassung
Definitions are hard. But they provide valuable insight into the subject at hand. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the term "control room" using word embeddings to provide a nuanced definition. The study leverages the ACM Digital Library to compile a corpus of texts related to control rooms, generating word embeddings to capture semantic relationships. Key aspects identified include the physical space, ergonomic design, multimodal information presentation, warning systems, contextual awareness, and command functions of control rooms. The analysis also explores adjacent clusters, highlighting tactile interfaces, interactive surfaces, and the use of large displays to enhance operator performance and situational awareness. The findings underscore the technological, ergonomic, and operational dimensions critical to the definition and functionality of control rooms.
