This paper describes a project to investigate methods and techniques to represent physical and perceptual activity in the context of cognitive models of human performance. The application of principal interest is that of constructing computer-generated forces (CGFs) for use in large-scale distributed simulations of military forces. Of the several frameworks currently in existence for simulating human behavior at both a cognitive and behavioral level, CHI Systems’ COGNET toolset represents a particularly attractive foundation for creating a tool to develop and execute CGFs. COGNET already possesses features that meet many of the human behavioral requirements of computer generated force models, including particularly its orientation toward representation of realtime, multi-tasking work environments.
