Abstract
The US government has funded various research programs for developing large-scale information systems with a pervasive concern with metrics. The program will be exploring methodologies and technologies that achieve substantial improvement and cost reduction in software development, requirements analysis and definition. Metrics are needed to determine the correct fidelity for attaining training objectives while operating within in boundaries of present technologies, human perception, schedule, and cost. Multidisciplinary and cross-domain approaches are encourages if they are useful in development of metrics for dynamics, complexity, and usability. The major challenge is the study of human-computer interaction, and the measures taken by the users that must support the evaluation of hypothesis concerning the nature of cognitive work and the designed study must support the evaluation of software tools.
