Abstract
Inadequacies of existing simulation and modeling tools in supporting development and evaluation of man-machine systems are considered. A new tool is proposed to support the development and use, by the end user, of a base of fundamental human performance models representing alternative factors and levels of detail. The Human Operator Model Management Environment (HOMME) is designed to aid in the construction and management of human performance models that are used as elements of larger man-machine system performance simulations. HOMME aids the user in constructing performance procedures and in defining the control interrelations between procedures, as well as in storing, retrieving, and editing procedures generated in earlier simulation efforts. It is intended to serve as an adjunct tool to the more general simulation shell known as HOS-IV.
