ABSTRACT:
This paper describes an effort to foster the
availability of Human Behavior Models /
Performance Moderator Functions (HBM/PMFs)
that the modeling and simulation community can
use to increase the realism of their human
behavior models. HBM/PMFs quantify the
impact of human performance to internal and
external stressors, and help to capture the role of
personality and individual differences. To
facilitate that process, we are creating a web-based
anthology of HBM/PMFs that abstracts
many 100s of them from diverse literatures,
maps them into a taxonomy and common
mathematical framework suitable for
implementation, and assesses their validity and
reuse issues. This paper reports on progress to
date, anthology construction issues, and lessons
learned.
