Description

As a base platform of Ecological Approach to Human Machine Systems (EAHMS), Structured Manuals Analysis and Design Method (SMAD) is a theory with technique for translating business languages (manuals: natural language) into modeling language (systems language) i.e. DFDs (Data Flow Diagrams), ERDs (Entity Relationship Diagrams) and Mini-specs (Miniature specifications) with its unique methodology of analysis and design. This paper successfully applied SMAD to Japanese business manuals in order to produce effective business simulation models. It is concluded that the SMAD approach to business simulation is promising to further enhance the EAHMS theory and practice for both American and Japanese companies.
