Résumé / Abstract
This research is a part of the human engineering program developed in the french institute of research on transport and safety (inrets - laboratory of health and ergonomics). The aim of this program is to gather data and to structure knowledge about road user behaviour, traffic task and road environment. The goal is to create a knowledge base which will integrate theoritical concepts, empirical data and inrets researchers expertise in a common framework. The first phase, in the development of this program, consisted in choosing a method and we opted for the object-oriented modeling technique (omt) of rumbaugh et al [rum 91]. In this paper, we consider the part of the program relative to driver modeling and human information processing. We first propose a general perceptivo-cognitive model of the driver and we describe its computer architecture according to its main components. In the second part, we use omt formalism to give a more detailed description of a particular component of this model (the tactical module).we conclude by the advantage of omt in terms of cognitive modeling.
