Abstract：Human and machine behavior

Abstract：Human and machine behavioral modeling and analysis are active areas of study in a variety of domains of current interest. Notions of what behavior means as well as how behaviors can be represented, compared, shared, integrated and analyzed are not well established and vary from domain to domain, even from researcher to researcher. Our current research suggests that a common framework for the systematic analysis of behaviors of people, networks, and engineered systems is both possible and much needed. The main contribution of this paper is the presentation of the Human Behavioral Modeling Language (HBML). We believe that the proposed schema and framework can support behavioral modeling and analysis by large-scale computational systems across a variety of domains.
