This document proposes a model-based approach for the automatic evaluation of aircraft human-machine interfaces (AHMIs). It suggests that AHMIs can be modeled using existing interaction techniques and evaluated for workload, execution time, and adherence to usability guidelines. The approach involves representing any AHMI as a model that can be automatically evaluated, allowing traditional metrics as well as more complex evaluation of how the interface adheres to design standards. The goal is to integrate evaluation into the development process for AHMIs.
