Predicting an adequate ratio of Unmanned Vehicles per operator using a system with a mission definition language

摘要

The Department of Defense's future vision for Network Centric Operations (NCO) will increase combat power by networking relevant entities across the battlefield. This will result in highly complex mission scenarios in which the operator's workload will be easily overloaded if the system is not designed to support the mission requirements. New technologies for these complex command and control environments are currently being developed. Evaluating the adequacy of a particular technology for specific mission requirements is critical for military decision makers. This paper will introduce a new approach to model operator and system performance.
