Abstract

A human-centered work process modeling project at NASA's Mission Control Center is presented. The approach uses NASA's agent-based modeling and simulation tool called Brahms. Brahms is a multiagent BDI-like modeling language and simulation environment. The objective of the project is to show how detailed agent-based modeling and simulation can be used in the analysis and design of new mission operations work processes at NASA. MODAT is the work analysis and design decision-making tool developed as an integration of Brahms and Microsoft Excel for both model design input, and simulation statistics output.
