Abstract

For years now, most researchers modeling physical and cognitive behavior have focused on one area or the other, dividing human performance into "neck up" and "neck down." But the current state of the art in both areas has advanced to the point that researchers should begin considering how the two areas interact to produce behaviors. In light of this, some common terms are defined so researchers working in different disciplines and application areas can understand each other better. Second, a crude "roadmap" is presented to suggest areas of interaction where researchers developing digital human form and other physical performance models might be able to collaborate with researchers developing cognitive models of human performance in order to advance the "state-of-the-art" in replicating and predicting human performance.
