Abstract
Mode transition matrices are an extension of standard state diagrams and transition matrices. These matrices can be used as an organizational tool for the analysis of aircraft automation systems composed of multiple modes. This paper explores how these matrices may provide insight into the underlying automation structure and be used in the process of human centered system design
