Human Problem Solving in Dynamic Environments. Understanding and Supporting Operators in Large-Scale, Complex Systems

Abstract
This research note seeks an empirical understanding of the relationship between the physical characteristics of a large-scale system and human performance, and formalizing these empirical results into several measures of large scale complexity. Behavioral computer models of the human operator in a large-scale environment were then constructed, and the models were found consistent with human behavior. This approach showed subtle performance improvement for aided subjects. Keywords: Man-machine, Computer models, Human performance, Communication networks.
