Design and modelling in optimization of human-machine systems functioning

The paper considers models and methods for automated design of human-machine systems functioning process based on functional-structural theory of human-machine systems and generalized structural method suggested by professor A.I. Gubinsky. Methods and techniques enlarging the application of functional-structural theory of human-machine systems are given in the paper. Since functional-structural theory can be applied only to processes with no aftereffect and dependent operations, integration with simulation method for optimization models of human-machine systems functioning process is suggested. The algorithm generating series-parallel combinations of operations according to additional constraints, as well as the algorithm generating alternative variants of human-machine functioning process based on matching of operation goals is described. The concepts of composition and measure of composition closeness are introduced.
