Abstract
A system for simulating human performance of a predefined procedure for operating equipment uses operator characteristics defining how human operator performance will be simulated. The operator characteristics include at least one among decision making rules, execution accuracy rules and rules defining operator response speed. The rules are weighted by a probability function having a randomized factor to produce a specified result a given percentage of the time when the simulation is repeated using the same operator characteristics. The results of the simulation are recorded and analyzed to evaluate performance of a human operator having the defined operator characteristics.
