Toward a modeling of human-centered, rule-based cooperative teamwork

Modeling of human interactions allows consideration of the different human interaction qualities to a cooperative teamwork with technical systems. The analysis of the performance of the cooperative interacting team members has become an important focus of research in recent years. The proposed approach can be used to model the behaviors for collaborations. This formalizable aspect of the teamwork uses a variety of descriptions. This contribution introduces the Situation-Operator-Modeling (SOM) approach theoretically and applies the approach with respect to the shared mutual situation awareness. Possible functionalities of SOM-based teamwork supervision and assistance are given with examples like teamwork coordination, agent learning, cognitive supervising, and automatic error detection of human errors.
