WinCrew is a human performance assessment tool developed by the Army Research Laboratory, Human Research and Engineering Directorate that implements the Wickens' Theory of Multiple Resources. WinCrew supports the hierarchical decomposition of missions into functions and tasks. As a demonstration of the capability of WinCrew, simulation models of the activities performed by bridge personnel on a Navy Guided Missile Destroyer DDG51 were developed. The scenarios were chosen to illustrate the potential of task network based human performance modeling to address reduced manning issues for naval ship operations. In order to fully exercise the functionality of WinCrew, four bridge models were developed. One scenario was modeled for four different manning, automation, and task allocation configurations. The scenario modeled was entry into San Diego Harbor. The major events for the bridge team were: bearing fixes, gyro error checks, turns, precision anchoring, and obstacle avoidance. Results of the effort demonstrated the utility of workload modeling for assessing human system integration alternatives for shipboard manning.

Developing human centered systems across multiple design and development teams requires a common framework to ensure seamless transition of models between collaborators. It is not sufficient to simply exchange data that is syntactically correct, it is also important to ensure that the information exchanged has shared meaning among team members. A current design project that included human architecting, human performance modeling and system engineering teams provided the foundation for a level of compatibility framework for Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) using the System Modeling Language (SysML). This framework provides descriptions of four different levels of model maturity that can be used for collaborative development. At each stage, the benefits of the model are described as well as its limitations. The Levels of SysML Compatibility can be used to integrate the Human Views, Soldier System library models and IMPRINT simulations to produce a comprehensive human system modeling approach.

The argument is presented that we too often label human acts which lead to accidents as idiosyncratic rather than as part of the normal variability in expected performance and that this tendency impedes progress in understanding causation. Some choice reaction time data is examined in terms of variability as related to skill, work session length, alcohol stress, sleep deprivation and compatibility. Analytic distributions are examined as to their possible applicability and properties of their far right tails.
