from Part IV - Computational Modeling in Various Cognitive Fields
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 April 2023
Cognitive engineering is the application of cognitive science to engineering. While the majority of the cognitive models and architectures commonly associated with cognitive engineering were created to understand human behavior, their use in engineering has been carried out with the purpose of realizing better systems. As such, cognitive engineering model fidelity varies, based on application goals. This chapter provides readers with a history of cognitive modeling in cognitive engineering and its diverse contributions by reviewing the seminal work of Card, Moran, and Newell, which laid the foundations for many developments. It then examines the use of cognitive models in complex systems engineering. The chapter concludes with a summary and a discussion of potential threats and future advances.
