Intelligent Software Engineering Tools for NASA's Crew Exploration Vehicle
نویسنده
چکیده
Orion is NASA's new crew exploration vehicle. The Orion Project will be using a state-of-the art model-based software development process. This model-based software development process is new for the human space program, and implies both new opportunities and risks for NASA. Opportunities include gaining early insight into designs in the form of executable models, and formulation of requirement verification conditions directly at the model level. Risks include autogenerated code. This paper describes intelligent software engineering tools being developed by NASA. The tools interface directly to the model-based software development process, and provide the following capabilities: early analysis to find defects when they are inexpensive to fix, automated testing and test suite generation, and innovative methods for verifying auto-generated code.

Intelligent Control of Life Support Systems for Space Habitats
The Interchamber Monitoring and Control (IMC) system is semi-autonomous, intelligent software that controls life support systems designed for recycling air in remote space habitats. The IMC system was developed using the 3T autonomous control architecture. This architecture integrates traditional control with reactive task sequencing and deliberative planning technology. The IMC system was used...
متن کاملIntelligent Systems for Advanced Mission Operations
Many mission operations systems and tools have been developed over the past decades as NASA has operated the Mars Exploration Rovers, the Space Shuttle, and International Space Station. Usually there is little cross-fertilization between the unmanned mission operations systems and those used for manned spaceflight. NASA Ames Research Center has been developing and applying its advanced intellig...

Porosity is one of the fundamental petrophysical properties that should be evaluated for hydrocarbon bearing reservoirs. It is a vital factor in precise understanding of reservoir quality in a hydrocarbon field. Log data are exceedingly crucial information in petroleum industries, for many of hydrocarbon parameters are obtained by virtue of petrophysical data. There are three main petrophysical...

We have conducted an initial set of tests to examine how astronauts in the International Space Station (ISS) can remotely operate a planetary rover. These tests, called “Surface Telerobotics”, were designed to simulate a possible future lunar exploration mission, in which astronauts inside the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) use a surface robot to remotely explore the lunar far side fro...
