I know that the CEGB (for those outside the UK, this is the
UK's Central Electricity Generating Board) has done some work
on this in the Scientific Services Department in its
North-eastern Region.  A report was produced called:

"A Touch-Sensitive Screen As An Interface For On-Line Control",
by Sutherland, Pringle and Carlin.

It documents the use of an upgraded VT103 in a power station
for operator control.
