Consequently, this project proposes an information management method based on a Knowledge Management (KM), to select and weight mission data in Human Supervision Control Systems (HSC) -- The method is based on the functional analysis of the process, as well as the generation of functions from its main objective -- This method was applied in a case study, where an analysis was performed around a mission control of a solar vehicle, that compete in the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge 2015 -- It was found that the number of relevant variables to monitor the competition was small, compared to the big set of available variables -- Another finding, was that the set of relevant variables is strongly influenced by the Operating States (OS) of the vehicle throughout the different moments of the competition -- Although there are some variables that are consistently stronger than others in all OS, in general, the variables’ importance presents a variable behavior between OS, concluding that the relevance of the variables is dynamicapplication/pdfspaInteracción persona - computadorSistemas complejosMonitoreoSistemas de SupervisiónmasterThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessADMINISTRACIÓN DEL CONOCIMIENTOSISTEMAS HOMBRE - MÁQUINAINTERFASES GRÁFICAS CON EL USUARIO (SISTEMAS PARA COMPUTADOR)AUTOMATIZACIÓNANÁLISIS FUNCIONALPROGRAMACIÓN LÓGICAKnowledge managementMan-machine systemsGraphical user interfaces (computer systems)AutomationFunctional analysisLogic programming629.2295 F363Acceso abierto2017-11-22Fernández Montoya, Mauricio
