Simulating and predicting behaviour of human drivers with Digital Human Driver Models (DHDMs) has the potential to support designers of new (partially autonomous) driver assistance systems (PADAS) in early stages with regard to understanding how assistance systems affect human driving behaviour. This paper presents the current research on an integrated driver model under development at OFFIS within the EU project ISi-PADAS. We will briefly show how we integrate improvements into CASCaS, a cognitive architecture used as framework for the different partial models which form the integrated driver model. Current research on the driver model concentrates on two aspects of longitudinal control (behaviour a signalized intersections and allocation of visual attention during car following). Each aspect is covered by a dedicated experimental scenario. We show how experimental results guide the modelling process.
