A Survey of Cognitive Engineering Methods and Uses Our survey provides an overview of
the methods of Cognitive Engineering, as well as advice on how the
methods of Cognitive Engineering can be applied to the challenges of
designing complex systems. Our product is a set of matrices that show how
Cognitive Engineering methods address Systems Engineering
applications.
We also provide a motivation for why we need Cognitive Engineering, highlighting three key challenges facing system designers, particularly in the military command and control domain. Next is an overview of Cognitive Engineering methods, which organizes the methods into five primary categories and provides a brief description of each method. Then we examine how the methods of Cognitive Engineering may be applied to the phases of the system engineering life-cycle, from concept definition to the development of training. Finally, an extensive references section provides sources for more information. Contents:
