Our core expertise is optimizing the performance and resilience of people who are subjected to physical and mental demands or who have to work in extreme conditions, especially people in the Defense and National Security domain. We make performance measurable in operational settings and develop interventions, training concepts, and innovative resources and equipment. With the results of our research, our clients can optimally prepare and equip their people for special, high-risk tasks. We often make use of technologies such as simulation (VR, AR), simulators, serious gaming, and AI. We use unique facilities such as the Serious Gaming lab, Climate Chambers, 3D scanning facilities, Physiological Monitoring Systems, The Neurolab, the Limosine, the Collaborative Training Centre (CTC), and the advanced motion simulator Desdemona.I lead the development of new lines of research and innovation by means of knowledge roadmapping, strategic partnerships, and our product portfolio.

I am the TNO lead for strategy and operations of the DESDEMONA simulator. Originally designed for spatial disorientation training and research, the Desdemona simulator features unlimited rotations around three axes and a sustained G-force capability of up to 3G. In addition, the cabin can accelerate linearly over an 8 meter linear track. Worldwide, DESDEMONA is unique, as it combines the possibilities of both a hexapod and a centrifuge. In an international public-private collaboration… Show more I am the TNO lead for strategy and operations of the DESDEMONA simulator.

We support them implement innovations in domains such as cyber security, cyber resilience, urban safety, security of vital infrastructures, crisis management, intelligence and national safety. We focus on understanding and improving networks – in particular, the networks that are crucial to the safety and quality of life of our society. We have knowledge of the cohesion of people, organisation, processes and technology in complex organisations, and how multidisciplinary network organisations function. We study how information disseminates through networks, and how decisions are arrived at. We investigate risks and vulnerabilities, created by dependencies within networks and apply this knowledge to making improvements based on scientific and empirical findings. Our research is considered of world class excellence, enabling us to improve our networking society. Networked operation is not only our field of work, it is also in our nature! Show less

We provide innovative solutions to increase sustainable work participation. Currently, the European economy experiences a significant decrease in labour potential. Our ambition is to solve this problem by providing evidence-based interventions to boost the employability and employment of inactive people at the low end of the labour market. We also investigate how we can boost the knowledge and production level of people at the low end of the labour market that may already be in paid employment but often have a low level of education and no formal basic qualification. Important research themes are flexibility of workforce, generation-management, elderly workers, social responsible enterprising, and the role of new media for work participation. Our customers are Ministries, Public employment services organization (UWV), Municipals, ZonMw, MSEs, Employment Agencies such as Randstad, etc. I lead the development of new lines of research and innovation, strategic partnerships, and our product portfolio.

Three solutions are proposed in this thesis, that assist instructional designers in communicating their designs to software producers better. The first solution is to support the designers in making a better use of formal design languages to standardize their design documents. The second solution is to support the designers by using templates that offer pre-structured software moulds that only have to be filled in with learning materials to create instructional software, either as examples for producers, or even as final products. And the third solution is to support designers in reusing parts of instructional software to assemble new instructional software, as examples for producers or as final products.
