I'm not sure if this is what you're remembering or not, but at the last
workshop there was a talk titled "Cognitive Architecture for Situation
Awareness (CASA)" on work by Octavio Juarez and Cleotilde
Gonzalez that seems related to what you want.  You can get the
slides from the ACT-R site at:

Hope that helps,
