Began in 1980 to study man-in-the-loop ECM/ECCM, expanded to include full range of human engineering services
Core expertise in human systems integration (HSI), user-centered design, and system development and test
Extensive experience in crew vehicle interface design, advanced sensors, integrated systems, and intelligence platforms
Also perform basic and applied research in human factors and human performance
Human Systems Engineering Branch
HSI is a systems engineering process that requires full consideration of the human components of a system from the onset of an development activity

Domains of HSI
HSI Mandate
DoD Instruction 5000.2 requires an acquisition program manager to initiate a Human Systems Integration program in order to:
optimize total system performance,
minimize total ownership costs, and
ensure that the system is built to accommodate the characteristics of the user population that will operate, maintain, and support the system
Ultimately, HSI is the responsibility of the Program Manager

As part of this research effort, a simulation environment was developed in which
human performance during a surveillance mission was observed.
Crew-in-the-loop evaluations were conducted to validate analytical data
(mission task analysis and modeling/simulation). Crew size, crew composition, and
mission duration were independently varied; operator workload and situational
awareness were two of the primary dependent variables.

BAMS UAS Overview
Operators provided feedback regarding subjective workload and situational awareness, as well as qualitative data regarding design considerations of the crew workstation needed to support alternative crewing concepts

Computer Simulation/Modeling of Manning & Workload
• Can be tailored to specific mission • Examine workload dynamics of
crewmembers for any crewing concept
• Track mission performance • Assess workflow bottlenecks
Workload Analysis
Analyses conducted IAW MIL-STD-882 and SAE 4761
System Functional Hazard Assessment (FHA):
Identify and classify failure conditions of the functional systems according to their hazard severity.
System Safety Analysis:
Conduct a systematic & comprehensive evaluation of the implemented systems to show that critical safety requirements have been met.
Verification that the implemented design meets the qualitative and quantitative safety requirements as defined in the FHA prior to Test Readiness Review.
Provide final Safety Assessment Report.

HSI T&E Objectives
Ensure compliance of system with the human engineering design criteria, principles, and practices and other applicable standards.
Ensure that the operators/maintainers can perform the specified missions, as documented in the mission/task analysis (MTA) to the required levels of performance.
Ensure that the controls and displays are easy to use, easy to learn, and useful to the operators/maintainers.
