The model results are reported in terms of overall organizational performance as well as an account of the models and procedures which emerged from agents' cognition. Two results have proved to be general relative to these simulations. One is that, the sharing of successful models by controllers is sufficient and essential to the achievement of significant reductions in the time required to run simulations of any given number of time frames. The increased simulation speed implies that the cognitive burden on the agents was much less than in the absence of model-sharing. The second result is that, with model-sharing and increased value accorded to specialized models, the controllers more rapidly and systematically developed procedures for dealing with relatively small incidents but in neither case were the controllers able to formulate procedures for dealing with the larger and more complex sets of critical events.
