This paper describes a simulation framework and engine created to address several
concerns in the design of multiagent concepts of operation, focused on the construct of …

Multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) help software engineers find novel
solutions to complex problems. When automatic tools explore too many options, they are …

The objective of this paper is to examine current literature and to compile a guideline for
integrating human factors principles into systems engineering. Each of the four suggested …

This report describes a methodology to conduct a Work Domain Analysis in preparation for
the development of operational concepts for new plants. This method has been adapted …

The transition from the current air traffic system to the next generation air traffic system will
require the introduction of new automated systems, including transferring some functions …

We advocate exploring complex models by combining data miners (to find a small set of
most critical examples) and of multiobjective optimizers (that focus on those critical …

Function allocation designates which agents-humans and automated-will perform which
activities during aviation operations. Such function allocations are not absolute-instead …

Validating models of airspace operations is a particular challenge. These models are often
aimed at finding and exploring safety violations, and aim to be accurate representations of …

This report presents preliminary research results from the investigation into the development
of new models and guidance for Concepts of Operations in advanced small modular reactor …

This report presents the results from three key activities for FY13 that influence the definition
of new concepts of operations for advanced Small Modular Reactors (AdvSMR: a) the …
