Three-factor Utility – the Safety of Pilots’ Levering Instrument
Journal Title: The Polish Journal of Aviation Medicine, Bioengineering and Psychology - Year 2013, Vol 19, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction. The aim of the research was to find the limits of applicability of a “two-factor utility function” by introduction of a three-factor utility function. Methods. The proposed three-factor utility function allows the comprehensive analysis of the streams of interrelations, interactions of the individual (“psychosomatic”) layers of the system, the state of behaviour (“health”) of a generalized agent (system), the state of nature and the state of challenges and threats coming from the environment that is understood holistically as a whole. Results. Behaviour of the three-factor utility function in solving decision problems complex dynamic systems was examined, and the results obtained by means of computer simulation methods from L number of experiments proved its eff ectiveness. Conclusions. The three-factor utility function leads to effective solutions to the complex system, information and decision-making problems, as well as eff ective solutions in management and controlling, and the function itself constitutes a significant development of existing scientific achievements in the field of information technology and is of great practical importance.
