Popis: The human role in complex task environments will more and more focus on handling non-routine situations with increasing information velocity and ubiquity. This paper presents a generic Cognitive and Functional (COLFUN) framework for envisioning and assessing such high-demand situations in order to realize an adequate human resource deployment. The framework consists of two models, a cognitive load model and a functional model, that support a coherent scenario analysis of the task demands and information flows. We briefly discuss two example assessments in early development processes: a traffic-control-center analysis and a task analysis for a naval ship’s bridge. Both analyses supported the development and refinement of operating procedures, support systems, manning schemes, work organization and training requirements. In general, COLFUN supports the integration of human factors in the iterative development process of complex human-machine systems.
