Harbour, Jerry L.; And Others – Performance and Instruction, 1991
Describes a hypermedia system, HSYS, that was developed by the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory to investigate human performance in technologically complex operational settings, i.e., nuclear power plants and offshore oil platforms. Three subsystems are explained: (1) a knowledge base; (2) an embedded training module; and (3) an advisory and…

Peer reviewedAntonucci, Yvonne Lederer; Wozny, Lucy Anne – Computers in Human Behavior, 1996
Identifies and describes sublevels of novices using a database management package, clustering those whose interaction is effective, partially effective, and totally ineffective. Among assistance documentation, functional tree diagrams (FTDs) were more beneficial to partially effective users than traditional reference material. The results have…

Hannaman, David L.; And Others – 1985
One means by which subordinate leaders in armor units can practice command, control, and communication (C3 skills) before participating in field exercises is with the use of a computer supported battle simulation. This report describes the functional requirements and hardware configuration for Simulation in Combined Arms Training (SIMCAT), a…

Feuge, Robert L.; And Others – 1974
An analysis of the conceptual feasibility of using automatic speech recognition and understanding technology in the design of an advanced training system was conducted. The analysis specifically explored application to Ground Controlled Approach (GCA) controller training. A systems engineering approach was followed to determine the feasibility of…
