The human factors profession is currently attempting to take a more
proactive role in the design of man-machine systems than has been
character istic of its past. Realizing that human engineering
contributions are needed well before the experimental evaluation of
prototypes or operational systems, there is a concerted effort to
develop tools that predict how humans will interact with proposed
designs. This volume provides an over view of one category of such
tools: mathematical models of human performance. It represents a
collection of invited papers from a 1988 NATO Workshop. The
Workshop was conceived and organized by NATO Research Study Group 9
(RSG.9) on "Modelling of Human Operator Behaviour in Weapon
Systems." It represented the culmination of over five years of
effort, and was attended by 139 persons from Europe, Canada, and
the United States. RSG.9 was established in 1982 by Panel 8 of the
Defence Research Group to accomplish the following objectives: *
Determine the utility and state of the art of human performance
modelling. * Encourage international research and the exchange of
ideas. * Foster the practical application of modelling research. *
Provide a bridge between the models and approaches adopted by
engineers and behavioral scientists. * Present the findings in an
international symposium."
