Outline of Master's thesis

The master thesis is part of a project in cooperation with the Volkswagen AG and complements the experimental research realized by Marika Nürnberg in the context of mental workload and its impact on drivers. The experimental data from Nürnberg is used as a basis for a cognitive model in Act-R modelling multitasking with threaded cognition (Salvucci & Taatgen 2008). The aim of the thesis is to model the existing data and to give an insight into the underlying cognitive processes of coordinating multiple tasks.
