Representing Cognitive Activity in Complex Tasks.

Barnard, Philip J.; May, Jon

Human-Computer Interaction, v14 n1-2 p93-158 1999

Interacting cognitive subsystems (ICS) is proposed as a unified cognitive theory that can be used as the basis for representations in human-computer interaction, and two approaches based on the theory are described: one entails the description of cognitive task models, and the other entails the production of less complete diagrammatic notations.
