A SURVEY OF HUMAN OPERATOR MODELS FOR MANUAL CONTROL. Appendix

Abstract

This section deals with a topological representation of the brain or what is termed an analytical model. An analytical model may be defined as a symbolic representation of the functional relationships between the pertinent variables, characteristics, and parameters of a bounded system. While it is possible to portray this type of model in the form of a block or logic diagram theoretically all analytical models can ultimately be represented as an equation or set of equations. The equations describe a /system by symbolically defining the interactions between pertinent inputs, outputs, and system constraints and properties.
