The NRC
Organization Mission
Different from military applicationsSimilar HF needs / research
3
NRC Activities
Study / validation (1990s)StaffingAlarm systemsRemote Afterloading Brachytherapy
EvaluationStaffing (Development Complete)Operator Workload (Current)
4
Why the NRC uses Simulation
Simple Comprehensive Easy to Use Faster than real time data collection Enhances understanding of system Supplements empirical research
5
IMPRINT for NRC application
IMPRINT developed for: Early design evaluation Opportunity to affect design Single system acquisition Distributed / environmental extremes
NRC needs: Post-construction evaluation Opportunity to affect operations Multiple variations of similar system evaluation Fixed environment
6
Possible Opportunities
Cooperative research Possible uses for Imprint and other variants
Cost sharing Development of future research regarding Imprint
applications Data sharing
Related applications for simulation Any background information related to staffing or
operator workload
