Abstract

In both linguistics and computer science, formal grammars are used to describe languages precisely. Formal grammatical description has not generally been applied in the human factors area, which traditionally draws on behavioral science for its methodology. This paper illustrates, by means of a detailed example, how formal description can be used in human factors.
