The objective of this paper was to aggregate research done during several different Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) grants as they apply to the design of complex environments and Augmented Cognition. This paper provides a high level exploration of the definition of situational awareness (SA), the action loop, an advanced mitigation framework, and a repeatable design methodology that was created to overcome several key mistakes made by UI designers. The discussion is illustrated using a recent user interface metaphor design project that maximizes information flow in a novel F- 35 Joint Strike Fighter Cockpit. While testing is not complete on the resulting UI metaphor, initial observations indicate that the results of using these models and processes offer a significant improvement in performance and user acceptance appears to be high.
