Beyond Modelling: An Integrated Environment Supporting Co-Execution of Tasks and Systems Models
Résumé
This paper focuses on the articulations of task models and system models. Tasks models are meant to be used by human factor specialists whilst system models are supposed to be produced by software engineers. However, tasks models and systems models represent two different views on how users interacting with a computing system to reach a goal. This paper presents an integration framework aiming to take full advantage of task models and system models that have been developed initially in a separated manner and how these two views can be integrated at the model level and additionally at the tool level. The main contribution of the paper lies in the definition of such integration at the tool level to be used at runtime (while the user is operating the system). Indeed, thanks to this integration contextual help can be offered to the users supporting the construction of the mental bridge between what they have to do (defined in the tasks model) and what the interactive system allows (defined in the system model). The approach, the tools and the integration are presented on a case study of a Weather Radar System (WXR) embedded in aircraft cockpits.
