INTEGRATING MICRO SAINT AND HOS

THE DEVELOPERS OF TWO COMPUTER MODELING AND SIMUATION SYSTEMS ARE JOINING FORCES TO INTEGRATE THEIR SYSTEMS INTO A SINGLE PACKAGE. MICRO SAINT, DEVELOPED BY MICRO ANALYSIS AND DESIGN, AND HOS, DEVELOPED BY ANALYTICS, INC. REPRESENT VASTLY DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO MODELING HUMAN PERFORMANCE. HOWEVER, BOTH APPROACHES COULD BE COMBINED TO FORM A MODELING TOOL FOR HUMAN ENGINEERS WHICH IS GREATER THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS. MICRO ANALYSIS AND DESIGN AND ANALYTICS WILL WORK TOGETHER TO INTEGRATE MICRO SAINT AND HOS INTO A SINGLE SYSTEM FOR MODELING HUMAN OPERATOR PERFORMANCE IN MILITARY SYSTEMS. THE FIRST PHASE WILL BE A PROOF-OF-CONCEPT AND A SOFTWARE SPECIFICATION. ALSO, A LIMITED VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE WILL BE DEVELOPED TO TEST ITS FEASIBILITY. IN PHASE II, ALL SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT AND INTEGRATION WILL BE PERFORMED.
