Line 1:

'''Human information processor model''' is a method of modelingmodelling human abilities and [[cognitive process]]es in [[human-computer interaction]]. A deliberately simplified view of human cognition, called the '''model human processor''' (MHP), is used to explain and predict how a human responds to [[stimulation|stimulus]]. The model human processor is composed of memories and processors. The memories are characterized by ''storage capacity'', ''decay time'' and ''type of coding'', and the processors by ''cycle time''. The values of these attributes were determined by empirical studies.
