Martin, J. I., Breidenbach, S. T. and Ciavarelli, A. P. (1988): Development of a Prototype Performance Measurement System for Strike Warfare Training Assessment. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 1222-1226.

This paper describes methods for developing automated performance measurement systems used with training ranges and simulators. A prototype automated measurement system designed to assess aircrew performance during strike warfare training is presented as an application of this methodology. Methods are also presented for displaying information which is useful in assessing student progress and for diagnosing training results.
