Army Research Institute Validation-Estimation System (ARIVES) User's Manual

Abstract

The existence of an accurate task analysis is a fundamental requirement for developing and evaluating training, function allocations, person-machine interfaces, personnel and manpower requirements, and test plans. To develop an accurate task analysis, one must identify missions, functions, tasks, and conditions that apply to a system; determine how these applicable items relate to each other; and validate the related, applicable items that have been identified. ARIVES (Army Research Institute Validation-Estimation System) is a method that uses a computer network to create and validate hierarchical task analyses. It is designed to reduce the time and difficulty of data collection and analysis and runs on VAX minicomputer. This document is the ARIVES User's Manual. Keywords: Task analysis; Validation; Human factors.
