Abstract :
Two interactive decision aids developed to support tactical planners at the Corps level are considered. The article presents the systems design process used to design and develop the aids as well as a description of the specific steps taken to conduct requirements analysis, develop functional "storyboards," and program the aids. Special emphasis is placed upon the use of expert planning judgment to validate requirements and "size" the aids. Both aids are configured around an interactive video disk-based display system linked to an IBM PC / AT.
