Functional Requirements and Other Design Features of a Manned System Research Facility.

摘要

A study was conducted to describe the functional requirements for the development of a Manned System Research Facility (MSRF) to be located at NPRDC. The MSRF will be a laboratory for the demonstration of and experimentation on advanced concepts of man-machine interaction and the controlled study of operator performance in a system context. The report consists of a section providing an introduction to the MSRF concept, and sections dealing specifically with the recommended MSRF subject work station consoles, computer system, software requirements, voice communications system, physical facility, staffing, and acquisition and development plan. The report contains reviews and/or discussions of manned systems research, display technology, distributed processing systems, computer operating systems, and programming languages. (Author)
