Abstract

This paper describes an effort by the US Army to apply cognitive decision aids to ground combat vehicles in a program entitled Crew integration and Automation Testbed. Based on a generic intelligent complex ground vehicle taxonomy, workload modeling is conducted to identify, peak areas of crew workload. Analysis of specific tasks during peak work-load conditions allows the application of specific workload reduction measures, including decision aiding, to improve task loading
