Man-Machine Simulation Using SADT (Structured Analysis and Design Technique) (Trademark)/SAINT (System Analysis of Integrated Networks of Tasks) Techniques,

Abstract

The U.S. Air Force is investigating analysis methodology and tools to use throughout the life cycle of various large complex man-machine systems. The simulation process is an important method for most life cycle stages but is often used with varying results. A solution for this problem is to develop and integrate tools for each phase of the simulation process. This paper reports on methods for integrating three phases: (1) Static system description, (2) Man-machine performance data base development, and (3) Dynamic system description. SADT/SAINT techniques provide the integrating vehicle. (Author)
