The feasHMlity of developing an exp^ system$-t>ased project
management dec^ion aid to enhance the performance of NASA
project managers was assessed. The research effort included
extensive literature reviews in the areas of project management
project management decision aiding, expert systems technology,
and human-computer interface engineering. Literature reviews were
augmented t)y focused int^vlews with NASA managers. Time
estimation for project scheduling was identified as the target activity
f^r decision augmentation, and a design was develop for an
integrated NASA System for Intelligent Time Estimation (INSITE).
The proposed INSITE design was judged feastole with a low tevet
of risk. A partial proof-of-concept experiment was perfonned and
was successful. Specific conclusk>ns drawn from the research and
analyses are included. The INSITE concept is potentially applicable
in arty management sphere, commercial or government where
time estimation is required for project scheduling. As project
scheduling is a nearly universal management activity, the range
of pos^Mlities is considerable. The INSITE concept also holds
potential for enhancir^ other management tasks, especially in areas
such as cost estimation, where estimation-by-anak>gy is already a
proven method. Author

A Vit>roacoustic Database Management Center has recently
been established at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). The center
uses the Vitn-oacoustic Payload Environment Prediction System .
(VAPEPS) computer program to maintain a database of flight and
ground-test data and sti\ictural parameters for both Shuttle and
expendable launch-vehicle payloads. Given the launch-vehicle
environment, the VAPEPS prediction software, which employs
Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) methods, can be used with or
without the database to establish the vibroacoustic environment
for new payload components. This paper summarizes the VAPEPS
program and descrit>es the functions of the Database Management
Center at JPL. Author

THE ROLE OF PSYCHOLOGISTS IN FUTURE SPACEFLIGHT
ROBERT L HELMREICH (Texas. Ur^versity, Austin) SPACEFAIR
'85. Meeting. Bostcm. MA. Apr. 14. 1985, Paper. 9 p.
(Contract NAG2-137)
The need for psychologists to have a more active role in
planning space missions is discussed. It is suggested that it would
be beneficial if psychologists conducted research aimed at
optimizing the organization, composition, and performance of crews;
participated in the selection and trair^ of crews; and monitored
the actual performance and ad|ustment of crews during missions.
The areas wtiich require further resestfch and the types of resesffch
strate^es to be irT^>temented are described. The desirable traits
for future space pereonnel and the role of psychologists In mission
control are examined. I-F.

The contributions of psychology to aviation in the areas of
selection, training, and evaluation, ar)d the implementation of rww
technologies are cfiscussed. The cor>cept of personality traits versus
modification of human behavior through principles of learning are
analyzed. Particular consideration is given to achievement
motivation (defined in terms of mastery, worte, and competitiveness)
and the differences between traits and attitudes. It is argued that
personality traits are important dimensions of the self and are
useful measures of individual differences. The selection of
inctividuals with desired personality chsracteristics and the training
of personnel to improve crew coordination, flight-deck management,
and interpersonal efficacy are examined. IF.

Psychological factors which govern interpersonal activities in
the cockpit are examined. It is suggested that crew members
shoukj be selected based on personality characteristics rec^red
for the position and that training does not cause k)ng lasting
personality changes, it only teaches and improves task performance
skills. The effects of mincflessness as defined by Langer (1978)
and the attribution theory of Jones and Nisbett (1971) on flight
deck commuracations and cocMt management are descrit>ed. The
needs for a new system of training crew members, with emphasis
on strategies tiiat induce cognitive processes and awareness, and
for flM investigations of pitots are discussed. I.F.

MODELS OF PROCEDURAL CONTROL FOR HUMAN
PERFORMANCE SIMULATION

1987. p. 421-432. refs
(Contract MDA903-81-C-0517)
Ttiis paper describes and evaluates two general technkfues to
simulate human performance of procedural tasks. A procecfejral
task is characterized as a partial ordering of task elements in
whteh the control of task-element sequencir^g is represented within
the task, rather than as an interaction between the task ar>d the
environment in whrch the task is performed. The primary concern
in simulating the performance of procedures is determining the
mechanism that controls task-element sequencing. Two modeling
framewortcs have been used to represent task-element sequencing.
The first method represents the constraints on task-element
sequendrig directty in a network. A second method represents
sequencing constraints indirectly as a set of production mles. Both
frameworks offer conskterat>le generality and flexilMlity in the kinds
of structures that can be represented. The relative advantages of
the two metfK>ds depend upon the (^jestions addressed tyy the
nK)del and the characteristics of the tasks being modeled.

Considerable evidence suggests the importance of teamwork,
coordination, and conflict resolution to the performance and survival
of isolated, confined groups in high-technology environments. With
the advent of long-duration space flight, group-related issues of
crew functioning will take on added significance. This paper
discusses the influence of crew roles, status, leadership, and norms
on the performance of small, confined groups, and offers guidelines
and suggestions regarding organizational design, crew selection,
training, and team building for crew productivity and social
well-being in long-duration spaceflight. Author

An experiment is reported that was conducted to examine
the possible value of higher-order consistency in skill development.
Subjects made judgments about ordinal properties of stimuli. The
presence or absence of consistency was defined by the type of
decision - consistent or varied decisions. In both decision
conditions the stimuli were inconsistent at the individual stimulus
level; however, subjects making consistent decisions concerning
the stimuli could make use of consistent relationships among the
stimuli. Subjects in the consistent decision were faster and more
accurate at identifying target stimuli when compared with the
inconsistent decision subjects. In addition to the quantitative
differences, subjects receiving consistent decision training were
qualitatively different in performance when compared to the
inconsistent decision group. The pattern of results from the present
experiment is quite consistent with previous memory/visual search
investigations. The experiment supports the suggestion that local
level (or stimulus based) consistency is not necessary for automatic
process development if task relevant higher-order (or global)
consistency can be identified and used by the trainees. Author

The Instructional Systems Development (ISD), introduced as a
military training methodology in the 1970's and based on
psychological principles derived mainly from behaviorism, was
adequate for training for tasks with fixed procedural sequences
and largely psychomotor skills. This paper evaluates the
applicability of ISD to the design of training required for advanced
aircraft operators and compares the principles and procedures of
the ISD with recently developed training methodologies in order
to determine how recent developments in cognitive science can
be applied to ISD to modify the training procedures for tasks
which require complex cognitive skills. It is concluded that the
ISD is still viable if the cognitive approach is used. While the
traditional appoaches leave later stages of training (automation
and fine tuning of skills) to be accomplished on the job. a cognitive
approach would concentrate on developing automated skill
component practice and skill refinement to build higher levels of
expertise. IS.

The training and specialty areas of the physicians who might
be sent to the Space Station is discussed. It is argued that these
candidates not only should be broadly trained to handle a number
of acute physical problems and to conduct research on the effects
of weightlessness on the human body physiology, but be also
trained to handle various psychological and interpersonal problems
related to long-term isolation and confinement. The knowledge
areas that should be included in the psychological training of a
space physician are outlined. I.S.

Although specific recommendations are difficult to make about
spacecraft and missions not yet designed, several general
guidelines are presently formulated concerning the training of future,
long-duration space mission crews. Training systems should be
embedded in the normal controls and displays of the spacecraft
used, so that critical maneuvers can be practiced as often as
possible. Some system for computer-based training should be
available onboard, in order to maintain the spacecraft
system-knowledge of the crew at a high level and deepen
understanding of malfunction responses. O.C.

This paper describes a flight test course designed to teach
senior undergraduates in Aerospace Engineering the fundamentals
of flight test engineering. While the engineering subject matter Is
based on performance and stability and control principles (which
are reviewed with emphasis on measurement techniques), the
centerpiece of the course is a laboratory project designed to
simulate a flight test project similar to ones encountered by a
new flight test engineer on his first assignment. Students learn to
work in a group, they practice both oral and written communication,
and they lay out a schedule of critical events for their project that
is used to measure their performance during the course. Two
examples of projects assigned are discussed in some detail. The
most beneficial outcomes of this project-oriented approach,
according to feedback from students, is an opportunity to apply
what they have studied for four years. The positive motivation
that results has led several of these students to seek jobs in
flight test. Author

The training of technical personnel involved in manufacturing
and maintaining rotorcraft is discussed. It is suggested that aircraft
manufacturers follow ICAO standards and recommendations for
training. Training programs should be evaluated according to goal
achievement, cost/benefit analysis, and development of working
relatioships. Aspects of training to be evaluated include the
knowledge, skills, and attitude towards the job of those involved,
the company training methods and techniques, the student's study
technique and attitude towards training. It is proposed that
requirements in basic and specialized training and competence
level definitions should be developed. Maintenance organizations
and their performance are also examined. R.B.

A nrmthod which evaluates five attitude pattenns of pilots during
certification tests to examine judgment in addition to skill is
discussed. The attitude patterns studied are macho
(agressive/forceful vs. timid), attitude to authority (defiant vs.
conformist), persistence (insistent vs. yielding), time of thought
(impulsive vs. pondering), and fear (carefree vs. trepid). Examiners
look for a balance t)etween the two extremes of each pattern.
With this method, a pik)t could recieve an unsatisfactory
determiruitk>n based on poor judgment, even if all tasks were
performed successfully, possibly helping to pir^nt reasons for
unsatisfactory performence resulting from poor attitude ratfier than
a tack of skill. R.B.

The problem of obtaining early information after accidents is
examined, arguing that a standaradized set of questions, to be
asked of air traffic controllers immediately after an accident, should
be designed and implemented to reduce the distortion that occurs
due to the influence of past experiences and published or
broadcasted news reports of the event. Relevant studies
concerning memory, post-accident questionnaires in use, and the
need for a preliminary study to develop a standardized
questionnaire are discussed, including possible sample questions.
It is proposed that a neutral organization such as the FBI should
be responsible for isolating and inten/iewing air traffic controllers,
whether or not they could have had a role in the accident. R.B.

Creativity involves the associating of hitherto unrelated
elements to form a new and useful combination. All have ti>e
ability but most seldom use it because of some false beliefs and
failure to understand the creative process. Deteoents to creativity
include fear of criticism, narrowness of education and trairwig,
habit, negative attitudes toward problems, lack of motivation, tack
of setf-confkience, lack of courage and (focoiragement by faihires.
The recognition and devek)pment of creative kleas requires mental
effort, an open rr^nd, searching seemingly imretated fiekto and

Space station habitability was studied by investigating crew
activity routines, proximities, ergonomic envelopes, and group
volumes. Ten alternative schematic interior designs were proposed.
Preliminary conclusions include: (1) in-service interior modifications
may be necessary and should be planned for; (2) design complexity
will be increased if the module cluster is reduced from five to
three; (3) the increased crew circulation attendant upon
enhancement of space station activity may produce human traffic
bottlenecks and should be planned for; (4) a single- or two-person
quiet area may be desirable to provide crew members with needed
solitude during waking hours; and (5) the decision to choose a
two-shift or three-shift daily cycle will have a significant impact on
the design configuration and operational efficiency of the human
habitat. j.P.B.

In prolonged work periods, men and women often forego
satisfying their sleep need to complete their assigned jobs, resulting
In an accumulation of performance/mood degrading sleep loss
and fatigue. Sleep need can be satisfied only by a slow process
of sleeping for an average of 7 to 8 consecutive hours per 24
hour period. I.e., a long period of time-out. However, sleep
management suggests that recovery from fatigue and sleepiness
during a prolonged work period can be accomplished by short or
ultra-short sleep (naps) taken during a prolonged work period.
Naps are shown not only to refresh and restore human functioning,
but also to maintain performance and mood during a prolonged
work period. In this paper, naps power as a counter-degradation
measure are described first through the literature review, and then
through critical evaluation of studies conducted at the Defense
and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine. Canada and the

Sufficient evidence exists from laboratory studies to suggest
that physiological measures can be useful as an adjunct to
behavioral and subjective measures of human performance and
capabilities. Thus it is reasonable to address the conceptual and
engineering challenges that arise in applying this technology in
operational settings. Issues reviewed include the advantages and
disadvantages of constructs such as mental states, the need for
physiological measures of performance, areas of application for
physiological measures In operational settings, which measures
appear to be most useful, problem areas that arise in the use of
these measures in operational settings, and directions for future
development. Author

The development and use of schemata in decision making is
examined. Subjects are trained to evaluate alternatives by
calculating expected outcomes. In subsequent tests, subjects are
required to select the best alternative without being given enough
time to compute outcomes. Under these conditions subjects
adopted a hybrid decision strategy employing both schemata and
approximations to outcome calculation. The schemata were
organized around a prototype. They specify a judgement associated
with the prototype and also contain feature oriented data useful
for accommodating differences between observed situations and
the situation prototype. There was no evidence for other memory
reference structures examined. These included indicator/
counter/indicator features and wholistic schemata that
could entirely replace the learned outcome calculation procedure.
There was also no support for memory structures that define
discriminator boundaries between different types of judgements or
decisions. GRA

The psychomotor ability literature was reviewed to determine
the validity and potential usefulness of psychomotor ability tests
for personnel selection and classification. Over 2,200 psychomotor
test validity coefficients were located. These were tabulated by
ability (using Fleishman's psychomotor ability taxonomy), criterion
(e.g., school vs. training vs. job performance), and job type.
Analyses of these data showed that psychomotor tests had been
used successfully to predict training and job performance for many
different occupations. Barriers to the use of psychomotor tests
were also investigated. Reliability data indicate that psychomotor
measures are not unstable. Moreover, the possibility of using
computerized tests in the future to assess psychomotor abilities
should eradicate the problem of apparatus differences. GRA

The paper compares the differences between the U.S. and
Soviet space programs in the past 30 years to determine what
steps the U.S. can take to regain its leadership position in space.
After briefly examining the space flight technology and the
development processes utilized by the two space programs, it is
suggested that the U.S. become more evolutionary in its programs
and more streamlined in its development practices. Most important,
however, is the gaining of public support for a robust, long-range
space plan. The key is effective communication with the American
people; it is suggested that the AIAA take the lead in organizing
this communication thrust. Author

ALLOTMENT PLANNING FOR TELECOMMUNICATION
SATELLITES
MILTON L SMITH (USAF. Space Command, Peterson AFB. CO)
Space Communication and Broadcasting (ISSN 0167-9368), vol.
5, Nov. 1987, p. 359-364. refs
This article examines one of the most critical issues that
must be resolved at the 1988 Space World Administrative Radio
Conference (WARC): the definition of the Allotment Plan for
telecommunication satellites. It reviews the results of the 1985
Space WARC, and then focuses on the Allotment Plan called for
by that session. As the 1985 Space WARC closed, the fundamental
nature of the Allotment Plan remained undefined. Some nations
considered that it should be an a priori-type plan, characterized
by rights to a specific orbital position for each country that would
be assigned when the plan was devised. Other nations maintained
that it should be a more flexible plan characterized by rights to a
position somewhere within an allotted predetermined orbital arc,
with a specific position to be assigned only when a satellite system
is to be implemented. The article concludes that a plan emphasizing
predetermined arcs can provide a realistic and continuing guarantee
of equitable access, as well as many other benefits that an a
priori plan cannot provide. This conclusion is supported by a review
of the computer software being used by the ITU for intersessional
planning exercises which should validate the advantages of a
predetermined arc concept. Author

examined in conjunction with these requirements. The conclusion
Is drawn that many of the simpler techniques in use can be very
misleading. An improvement in understanding and accuracy may
be achieved if the simple presentations are supported by detailed

The methodology of Technology Demonstrator Programs (TDPs)
is presently suggested to be capable of making major contributions
to controlling the costs and time-scales associated with high
technology, defense-related projects. TDPs yield a quantity and
quality of knowledge, and an infrastructural resource, that can
help in the formation of effective design and management teams
when the same technology is applied in subsequent weapon system
development projects. It is noted that if a TDP is launched too
eariy. the technology used may not be relevant to subsequent
projects; if too late, the technology development effort involved
may prove irrelevant. O.C.

A decision support toot is developed that can be used by the
R&D manager to effectively update his or her portfolio when a
review is called for. The approach is interactive and builds on two
sets of critical factors. Initially, projects are screened to see if
they are at an acceptable level, and if they are making reasonable
progress toward completion. Those failing the test are terminated,
those remaining are weighed with candidate projects to determine
which should be included in the portfolio. This is achieved with a
mathematical programming routine that maximizes expected
returns. A case study centering on a peripheral equipment

No longer limited to occasional spectaculars, space has
become an essential, almost commonplace dimension of national
life. Among other things, space is an arena of competition with
our allies and adversaries, a place of business, a field of research,
and an avenue of cooperation with our allies. The space station
will play a critical role in each of these endeavors. Perhaps the
most significant feature of the space station, essential to its utility
for science, commerce, and technology, is the permanent nature
of its crew. The space station will build upon the tradition of
employing new capabilities to explore further and question deeper,
and by providing a permanent presence, the station should
significantly increase the opportunities for conducting research in
space. Economic productivity is, in part, a function of technical
innovation. A major thrust of the station design effort is devoted
to enhancing performance through advanced technology. The
space station represents the commitment of the United States to
a future in space. Perhaps most importantly, as recovery from the
loss of Challenger and its crew continues, the space station
symbolizes the national determination to remain undeterred by
tragedy and to continue exploring the frontiers of space. B.G.

Results indicate that readers spend more time with information

attention on the principle, and the proof-first structure (not
surprisingly) focuses attention on the proof. Additionally, readers
find it easier to predict what is important in principle-first texts,
and used the principle-first approach more often in summarizing.
These findings indicate that readers find the information in a

The feasibility of developing an expert systems-based project
management decision aid to enhance the performance of NASA
project managers was assessed. The research effort included
extensive literature reviews in the areas of project management,
project management decision aiding, expert systems technology,
and human-computer interface engineering. Literature reviews were
augmented by focused inten/iews with NASA managers. Time
estimation for project scheduling was identified as the target activity
for decision augmentation, and a design was developed for an
Integrated NASA System for Intelligent Time Estimation (INSITE).
The proposed INSITE design was judged feasible with a low level
of risk. A partial proof-of-concept experiment was performed and
was successful. Specific conclusions drawn from the research and
analyses are included. The INSITE concept is potentially applicable
in any management sphere, commercial or government, where
time estimation is required for project scheduling. As project
scheduling is a nearly universal management activity, the range
of possibilities is considerable. The INSITE concept also holds
potential for enhancing other management tasks, especially in areas
such as cost estimation, where estimation-by-analogy is already a
proven method. Author

The 1987 Defense Science Board (DSB) Summer Study on
Technology Base Management was charged with evaluating the
management of the technology base of Department of Defense
(DOD) and making recommendations on ways to improve the
effectiveness and efficiency of the management process. The thrust
of this study was to develop management principles that could
guide the Technology Base rather than to develop a more detailed
set of recommendations. The conclusions of the panel are derived
from a qualitative evaluation of the present system coupled with
an understanding of how well (or pooriy) recommendations of past
studies have been implemented. It was evident that implementation
of any recommendations will face substantial institutional resistance
and political difficulties. Accordingly the Study has, in some cases,
adopted the mechanism of proposing a series of experiments or
demonstrations of major change which point in the right direction.
It is important to understand that the leadership and vision of
motivated individuals and groups are a critical part of technical
management. The study has been as concerned with this aspect
of Technology Base management as with more institutional or
bureaucratic processes. GRA

A classical algorithm for finding a minimum-cost circulation
consists of repeatedly finding a residual cycle of negative cost
and canceling it by pushing enough flow around the cycle to
saturate an arc. We show that a judicious choice of cycles for
canceling leads to a polynomial bound on the number of iterations
in this algorithm. This gives a very simple strongly polynomial
algorithm that uses no scaling. A variant of the algorithm that
uses dynamic trees runs in 0(nm(log n) min log (nC), m log n)
time on a networic of n vertices, m arcs, and arc costs of maximum
absolute value C. This bound is comparable to those of the fastest
previously known algorithms. GRA

A new approach to solving minimum-cost circulation problems
is developed. This approach combines methods for solving the
maximum flow problem with successive approximation techniques
based on cost scaling. The authors measure the accuracy of a
solution by the amount that the complementary slackness
conditions are violated. They propose a simple minimum-cost
circulation algorithm, one version of which runs in 0(cu n log(nC))
time on an n-vertex network with integer arc costs of absolute
value at most C. By incorporating sophisticated data structures
into the algorithm, we obtain a time bound of 0(nm log(sq n/m)
log(nC)) on a networi^ with m arcs. A slightly different use of our
approach shows that a minimum-cost circulation can be computed
by solving a sequence of 0(n log(nC)) blocking slow problems. A
corollary of this result is an 0(sq n (log n) log (nC)-time, n-processor
parallel minimum cost circulation algorithm. This approach also
yields strongly polynomial minimum-cost circulation algorithms.
Results provide evidence that the minimum-cost circulation problem
is not much harder than the maximum flow problem. It is believed
that a suitable implementation of this method will perform extremely
well in practice. GRA

by installing expensive, state of the art technology. The studies of

appropriate organizational change. The less successful ones were

generally those where project were dominated by technical
considerations, with tittle of no thought given to organizational
ones. These lessons seem as relevant to defence installations e&
to the civilian ones in which ttie research was conducted. The
common characteristic is that all organizations are confronted by
technical developments, which are intended to he^p them meet

Barriers to higher performance posed by airframe and propulsion
system structural alloys' melting points and phase transition
temperatures must be overcome in order to realize the requirements
of such next-generation aircraft as the Natior.al Aerospace Plane
and Advanced Tactical Fighter. The R&D efforts currently undenway
to meet these requirements are dominated by low-ductility and
anisotropic (composite) materials such as intermetallics,
ceramic-matrix composites, metal-matrix composites, and high
temperature polymeric-matrix composites; affordabitity is the key
to the success of these materials. Metal-matrix composites are
noted to offer enormous advantages in high-temperature
performance, with excellent strength/weight ratios. O.C.

A tool for monitoring, reporting, and controlling the progress of
time-critical projects called progress plotting is presented. It helps
distinguish between minor schedule slips and problems that call
for serious management intervention. It also serves to evaluate
planning accuracy on previous projects. Progress is shown by
plotting the actual tinr>e used on a project against the completed
percentage of the critical path. Control lines in the plotting space
indicate probabilities of completing the project on schedule. If the
progress line crosses a low-probability conti-ol line, managers may
want to intervene and bring the project back on schedule. Crossing
a high-probability control line means an early finish may be
anticipated with confidence. The progress plot is comparable to
the process-control chart used in manufacturing settings, I.E.

Space habitation will create a need for a general purpose repair,
rebuilding, and manufacturing facility. The self-contained 'job shop*
concept fits this need. A single, multi-purpose machine tool
combined with a large variety of accessories is proposed. This
uses existing and proven technology, requiring only some minor
adaption for work in space. Also, there is a large experience base
of job shop techniques which can be drawn upon, A job shop
can modify tools and equipment already in orbit. It can perform

production manufacturing for many of the sub-components needed
in the construction of additional habitats. This adaptability also
provides valuable capacity when Shuttle or other transportation
links may experience delays. It creates a 'bootstrapping* capability
which can significantly lower manufacturing costs in space. This
paper presents specific design aspects which can help achieve
this goal. Author

The all-electronic propulsion system combines the high specific
impulse of the ion thruster with beamed microwave power to
produce a combined power and propulsion system with a
self-acceleration as greater at 0.02 m/sec sq with a specific impulse
of 4200. This is more than an order of magnitude greater than
that provided by other approaches to electric propulsion in their
current state of development, including nuclear and photovoltaic
power sources. Associated with this new technology are two
requirements for its execution: (1) the space vehicles and earth
based transmitters must be based in the equatorial plane; and (2)
the vehicles are large in area and have very high thrust levels
because of efficiency and cost considerations associated with the
microwave beam system. These vehicles, tK)th in size and physical
configuration, are different from conventional space vehicles and
may have an impact upon future space vehicle design including
those using photovoltaic power. Author

May 1988, p. 48-56.
An account is given of the development status and range of
currently available compositions and performance properties of
electrically conducting plastics. The first of these, the
serendipitously discovered polyacetylene. was useful as a battery
electrode in rechargeable cells but was found to be dangerously
unstable in air. Attention is given to novel proprietary conducting
plastic compositions that are stable in air or water at all conductivity
levels (of which the highest are fully comparable to those of metals)
and which are stable in mutual contact; this latter property allows
the production of circuit boards. The new plastics are noted to be
produced in conducting or semiconducting form for less that
$1.00/lb (by contrast to semiconducting silicon, which costs about
22

$100.000.00/lb). and can be blended with stnictural plastics to

Revolutionary advances in structural materials have been
responsible for revolutionary changes in alt fields of engineering.
These advances have had and are still having a significant impact
on aircraft design and performance. Composites are engineered
materials. Their properties are tailored through the use of a mix
or blend of different constituents to maximize selected properties
of strength and/or stiffness at reduced weights. More than 20
years have passed since the potentials of filamentary composite
materials were identified. During the 1 970s much lower cost carbon
filaments became a reality and gradually designers turned from
boron to carbon composites. Despite progress in this field,
filamentary composites still have significant unfulfilled potential for
increasing aircraft productivity; the rendering of advanced organic
composite materials into production aircraft structures was
disappointingly slow. Why this is and research and technology
development actions that will assist in accelerating the application
of advanced organic composites to production aircraft is
discussed. Author

and needs for microgravlty combustion studies are identified for
commercial/industrial groups involved in fire safety with terrestrial
applications, fire safety with space applications, propulsion and
power, industrial burners, or pollution control. From these interests
and needs experiments involving: (1) no flow with solid or liquid
fuels; (2) homogeneous mixtures of fuel and air; (3) low flow with
solid or liquid fuels; (4) low flow with gaseous fuel; (5) high pressure
combustion; and (6) special burner systems are described and

Avail: NTIS HC A14/MF A01
Project managers and development engineers might well be
excused for thinking that they have more than enough cost
estimates already. After all, the content of any major development
program is always broken down into numerous work packages
and the cost of these individually estimated in fine detail. Then,
as the work proceeds, these very detailed bottom-up estimates
are continually refined and have a large claim on the attention of
project managers. However, there is another form of cost estimating
which can be used from the very inception of a project and which
brings large returns from modest effort. Traditional methods assist
attempts to control the costs of an on-going project towards some
pre-set target. The methods described here are directed more at
the initial selection of projects and the setting of feasible cost
targets for them. In brief, their role is to pick winners from the
range of competing alternatives which present themselves before
a major project is begun. At the least, these methods give greater
assurance that the chosen solution will be viable in terms of its
being attempted within realistic cost restraints. Author

The success and effectiveness of a concept of
demonstration-validation through the use of prototypes depend
essentially on the contractor's engineering management activities,
which must be carefully tailored to the goals of the program.
Special importance goes to the activities for the definition of the
most cost-effective prototype configuration, of planning,
coordination and integration of the different specialty areas, of
reduction and simplification of the formal qualification
documentation and decision processes. This requires that the
customer include flexibility In his contract, and that the contractor
adapt his organization by establishing an efficient task force led
by a dedicated system engineering structure. Essential factors for
success are also a correct choice of key people for the
organizational structure, and the completeness of the conceptual
studies representing a basis for realistic planning of the prototype
definition, development and evaluation activities. The evaluation
of the benefits obtainable in terms of complete development costs
and time by using the suggested policies and techniques can be

Current designs for general aviation airplanes have become
obsolete, and avenues for major redesign must be considered.
New designs should ir^corporate recent advar>ces in electronics*
aerodynamics, structures, materials, and propulsion. Future
airplanes should be optimized to operate satisfactorily in a positive
air traffic control environment to afford safety and comfort for
point-to-point transportation, and to take advantage of automated
manufacturing techniques and high production rates. These
requirements have broad implications for airplane design and flying
qualities, leading to a concept for the Modem Equipment General
Aviation (MEGA) airplane. Synergistic improvements in design,
production, and operation can provide a much needed fresh start
for the general aviation industry and the traveling public. In this
investigation a smalt four place airplane is taken as the reference,
although the proposed philosophy applies ao-oss the entire

The Soviet published literature in spacecraft engir>eering
pertaining to future space systems, including those utilizirfg large
structures is assessed. Topk:al areas emphasized indude advanced
structural concepts and associated construction approaches,
spacecraft materials, precision pointing and rapid retargeting,
geometrically precise structures in the presence of static and
dynamic disturt>ances. and spacecraft vulnerability as it relates to
these aspects of spacecraft engineering. The assessment irKlicates
that the Soviets have significant strengths and specialties in
spacecraft engineering. The Soviet space station appears to be
the principal Soviet large system of the near future, and this will
expand and evolve in size and capability. Radio astronomy missions
are also genuine drivers for large space structure technology,
including space construction capability. In the structural materials
area, the Soviets can be expected to develop high quality,
structurally efficient fit}er-reinforced metal-matrix cornposites. which
will be used to improve the performance and possibly the
survivability of future Soviet spacecraft. The technology of
control-structure interaction, important in the design of large
space-t>ased lasers, is receiving considerably more support. t>ased
on the published literature, in the United States than in the Soviet
Union. Author

Experimental and analytical effort shows that use of advanced
turboprop (propfan) propulsion instead of conventional turbofans
in the older narrow-body airiine fleet could reduce fuel consumption
for this type of aircraft by up to 50 percent. The NASA Advanced
Turboprop (ATP) program was formulated to address the key
technologies required for these thin, swept-blade propeller
concepts. A NASA, industry, and university team was assembled
to develop and validate applicable design codes and prove by
ground and flight test the viability of these propeller concepts.
Some of the history of the ATP project, an overview of some of
the issues, and a summary of the technology developed to make
advanced propellers viable in the high-subsonic cruise speed
application are presented. The ATP program was awarded the
prestigious Robert J. Collier Trophy for the greatest achievement
in aeronautics and astronautics in America in 1987. Author

In this report, the research completed under the project In
the area of database management in engineering design and
optimization is described. Database management concepts used
in business applications were studied and concepts suitable for
engineering applications were developed. Data structures that need
to be managed were identified. Database design methodologies
were studied and a suitable methodology for engineering designs
and optimization applications was developed. Several prototype
database management systems (DBMS) were designed, developed
and evaluated. Several prototype application programs utilizing a
database management were developed to evaluate performance
of DBMS. Based on these implementations and studies, the usual
relational data model was generalized to handle engineering data
types. Specifications for an integrated DBMS capable of handling
relations, vectors and matrices (of different types) were developed.
A system based on the specifications, called MIDAS/GR was
implemented and evaluated. MIDAS/GR stands for Management
of Information for Design and Analysis of Systems/Generalized

The Stanford University Aerospace Robotics Laboratory is
actively developing and experimentally testing advanced robot
control strategies for space robotic applications. Early experiments
focused on control of very lightweight one-link manipulators and
other flexible structures. The results are being extended to position
and force control of mini-manipulators attached to flexible
manipulators and multilink manipulators with flexible drive trains.
Experimental results show that end-point sensing and careful
dynamic modeling or adaptive control are key to the success of
these control strategies. Free-flying space robot simulators that
operate on an air cushion table have been built to test control
strategies in which the dynamics of the base of the robot and the
payload are important. Author

A small expert system developed in an aerospace firm is
described. The expert system, called INSTRAT, assists managers
with investment decisions associated with R&D, engineering, and
production contract bidding. These decisions are a frequent and
bothersome problem within the firm. INSTRAT is also used for
training new staff and as a computerized 'road map' or checklist
for the more experienced managers. The expert system was written
using the OPS5 development language and consists of almost
two hundred rules. A survey of artificial intelligence (Al), expert
systems (ES), expert support systems (ESS), and the OPS5
language is provided with emphasis on engineering management
applications. The artificial intelligence/expert systems model
building approach was found to produce a satisfactory decision
aid for the firm's managers. This approach was evaluated to be
as good as or better than the more traditional operations research,
management science, or decision support system approaches for
the investment decision problem described in the paper. Author

CAD/CAE/Computer-Aided Engineering (CAM) is a relatively
new technology in the computer world. Early attempts at graphics
representation were cumbersome and primitive, causing many
engineering groups to remain in the manual mode of design. Today,
there is a proliferation of new software and several technological
advances that made the use of CAD/CAM/CAE not only attractive,
but essential to the success of many larger companies. The early
problems encountered in developing graphics computers,
differences between graphics data files, and ADP files are
discussed. The labyrinth of new technology is explored and the
many areas of possible application of CAD/CAM/CAE are
considered. Author

'Radarbef, a nine-state Kalman filter-based trajectory estimator
operating in real time for flight test applications, furnishes accurate
trajectory data representing mission spatial positions, velocities,
and accelerations for up to eight different aircraft simultaneously.
These trajectory estimates can not only drive geographical displays,
but will also provide real-time checkout of onboard navigation,
radar, and weapons systems. Radarbet incorporates highly flexible
mission reconfiguration capabilities. Operator interaction is kept to
a minimum through the use of a high-level color graphics display
and a rule-based expert system for real-time maintenance and

In recent years there has been increasing interest in applying
the computer based problem solving techniques of Artificial
Intelligence (Al), Operations Research (OR), and Decision Support
Systems (DSS) to analyze extremely complex problems. A
conceptual framework is developed for successfully integrating
these three techniques. First, the fields of Al, OR, and DSS are
defined and the relationships among the three fields are explored.
Next, a comprehensive adaptive design methodology for Al and
OR modeling within the context of a DSS is described. These
observations are made: (1) the solution of extremely complex
knowledge problems with ill-defined, changing requirements can
benefit greatly from the use of the adaptive design process, (2)
the field of DSS provides the focus on the decision making process
essential for tailoring solutions to these complex problems, (3)
the characteristics of Al, OR, and DSS tools appears to be
converging rapidly, and (4) there is a growing need for an
interdisciplinary AI/OR/DSS education. Author

induce situations in the mission environment purposedly and as
supported by their respective subdomains should be able and
capable of evolving concurrently with and relative to an ever
evolving mission environment. Information perceived from the latter
may be complex, i.e., with multivariate, interrelated and dynamic

Robots that plan to perform everyday tasks need knowledge
of everyday physics. Physics For Robots (PFR) is representation
of part of everyday physics directed towards this need. It includes
general concepts and theories along with an application specific
portion for tasks in cooking. PFR goes beyond the representation
schemes of most Al planners by including natural processes that
the robot can control. It also includes a theory of material
composition so robots can identify and reason about physical
objects that break apart, come together, mix, or go out of existence.
This focus is made on the characterization of knowledge with: (1)
PFR characterizes the robot's capabilities to act and perceive,
and (2) PFR replaces the NP goal of developing models of actual
common sense knowledge. The goal of PFR is to represent the
knowledge about everyday physics that is needed to prove the
effectiveness of certain robot Input/Output programs in
accomplishing given tasks. It is expected that this knowledge will
be needed by a robot that can plan to perform such everyday
tasks. GRA

Driving vehicles through remote control (teleoperation) can allow
the human operator to take actions at a distance. Human
effectiveness can be projected into locations which may be
hazardous. In order for the operator to control the motion of these
vehicles, knowledge of the vehicle environment and status need
to be available. This requires a system consisting of vehicle,
communication link and human operator. Much work has been
done in vehicle and communication system design but
comparatively little effort has been devoted to the human interface.
In this paper, experimental studies of remote driving are reviewed
to approach an understanding of what is known. Summary data
are presented for experimental work performed at Sandia National
Laboratories in vehicle vision systems. This information is combined
with the experience base developed through several years of work
with teleoperated vehicles to identify the major areas requiring
additional development effort. DOE

Artificial intelligence (A!) technology, and in particular expert
systems, has shown potential applicability in many areas of
operation at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC). In an era of limited
resources, the early identification of good expert system
applications, and their segregation from inappropriate ones can
result in a more efficient use of available NASA resources. On
the other hand, the education of students in a highly technical
area such as Al requires an extensive hands-on effort. The nature
of expert systems is such that proper sample applications for the
educational process are difficult to find. A pilot project between
NASA-KSC and the University of Central Florida which was
designed to simultaneously address the needs of both institutions
at a minimum cost. This project, referred to as Expert Systems
Prototype Training Project (ESPTP). provided NASA with relatively
inexpensive development of initial prototype versions of certain
applications. University students likewise benefit by having expertise
on a non-trivial problem accessible to them at no cost. Such
expertise is indispensible in a hands-on training approach to
developing expert systems. Author

A major guideline for the design of the U.S. Space Station is
that the Space Station address a wide variety of functions. These
functions include the servicing of unmanned assets in space, the
support of commercial labs in space and the efficient management
of the Space Station itself; the largest space asset. The
technologies of Automation and Robotics have the promise to
help in reducing Space Station operating costs and to achieve a
highly efficient use of the human in space. The use of advanced
automation and artificial intelligence techniques, such as expert
systems, in Space Station subsystems for activity planning and
failure mode management will enable us to reduce dependency
on a mission control center and could ultimately result in breaking
the umbilical link from Earth to the Space Station. The application
of robotic technologies with advanced perception capability and
hierarchical intelligent control to sen/icing system will enable the
servicing of assets either in space or in situ with a high degree of
human efficiency. The results of studies leading toward the
formulation of an automation and robotics plan for Space Station
development are presented. Author

Software engineering design and verification methods for
developing expert systems are not yet well defined. Integration of
expert system technology into software production environments
will require effective software engineering methodologies to support
the entire life cycle of expert systems. The software engineering
methods used to design and verify an expert system, RENEX, is
discussed. RENEX demonstrates autonomous rendezvous and
proximity operations, including replanning trajectory events and
subsystem fault detection, onboard a space vehicle during flight.
The RENEX designers utilized a number of software engineering
methodologies to deal with the complex problems inherent in this
system. An overview is presented of the methods utilized. Details
of the verification process receive special emphasis. The benefits
and weaknesses of the methods for supporting the development
life cycle of expert systems are evaluated, and recommendations
are made based on the overall experiences with the methods.

The Experiment Scheduling Program (ESP) is the heart of a
group of programs developed at NASA-Marshall to schedule the
experiment activities of Spacelab and other Shuttle missions. Other
programs in the group either prepare input data for ESP or produce
derivative information based on the schedule produced by ESP.
The task of experiment scheduling can be simply stated as
positioning the experiment activities in a mission to that they collect
their desired data without interfering with other activities. The
program's capabilities as seen by the user are described along
with mission constraints the program handles, and how the expert
system in the program handles these constraints. Author

In response to a number of high-level strategy studies in the

for spacecraft ground systems have proliferated in the past several
years primarily as individual small to medium scale applications. It
is useful to stop and assess tt>e impact of this technology in view
of lessons learned to date, and hopefully, to determine if the
overall strategies of some of the eariier studies both are being
followed and still seem relevant. To achieve that end four idealized
ground system automation scenarios and their attendant Al
architecture are postulated and benefits, risks, and lessons learned
are examir>ed and compared. These architectures encompass: (1)
no Al (baseline). (2) standalone expert systems, (3) standardized,
reusable knowledge base managen>ent systems (KBMS). and (4)
a futuristic unattended automation scenario. The resulting artificial
intelligence lessons teamed, t>er>efits, and risks for spacecraft

complex robots. Robots like the Utah-MIT hand are characterized
by large numt)ers of actuators and sensors, and require high servo
rates. Consequently, F}owerful and flexible computer architectures
are needed to control them. The rot>otic architecture described in
this paper derives its power from the highly efficient real-time
environment provided for its control processors, coupled with a
development host that enables flexible program devek>pment By
mapping the menrK>ry of a dedicated group of processors into the
address space of a host computer, efficient sharing of system
resources between them is possible. The software is characterized
by a few simple design concepts but provides the facilities out of

This paper summarizes the past eight years of research in the
application of Artificial Intelligence (Al) to Simulatk>n. Our focus
has t}een in two areas: the use of Al knowledge representatk>n
technk^ues for the modeling of complex systems, arnj the
codificatk>n of simulatk)n expertise so that it can be used to manage
the simulatk)n life cycle. The Knowledge Based Simulatk>n system
is an emt>odiment of this research. It provides a complete simulation
decisron support environment for the modeling, validatk>n,
simulation and analysis of complex systems. KBS has been applied
to a variety of problems including factory and distributk>n system
analysis. By using a frame language to represent domain concepts,
such as object structure, and goals, there is a one to one
correspondence between the domain and the simulation model 2.
Secondly, by using rules to represent object behavior, the
specification and modification of the behavwrs t)ecome easier.
Lastly, explanation techniques developed around rule based
systems provide the basis for explaining event behaviors. GRA

A traditional programming technique for controlling the display
of optional flight information in a civil transport cockpit is compared
to a rule-based technique for the same function. This application
required complex decision logic and a frequently modified rule
base. The techniques are evaluated for execution efficiency and
implementation ease; the criterion used to calculate the execution
efficiency is the total number of steps required to isolate hypotheses
that were true and the criteria used to evaluate the implementability
are ease of modification and verification and explanation capability.
It is observed that the traditional program is more efficient than
the rule-based program; however, the rule-based programming
technique is more applicable for improving programmer
productivity. IF.

end. the AIS would offer the technological framework and
information system resources to overcome many of the defrciencies
that end-users have faced over the years such as limited access
to data, delay in data delivery, and a limited access to data
reduction algorithms and models to convert data to geophysical
measurements- In addition, the AIS will take advantage of NASA
developments in networking among information systems and use
of state of the art technok>gy, such as CD Roms and optical
disks for the purpose of increasing the scientific benefits of applied
environmental research. The rationale for the establishment of an
AIS, a methodology for a step-wise, modular implementation, and
the relationship of the AIS to other NASA information systems
are discussed. Author

An essential ingredient in scientific work is data. In disciplines
such as Oceanography, data sources are many and volumes are
formidable. The full value of large stores of data cannot be realized
unless careful thought is given to data access. JPL has developed
the Pilot Ocean Data System to investigate techniques for archiving
and accessing ocean data obtained from space. These include
efficient storage and rapid retrieval of satellite data, an easy-to-use
user interface, and a variety of output products which, taken
together, permit researchers to extract and use data rapidly and
conveniently. Author

This paper presents a resource management mechanism for a
multiprocessor system, which contains a pool of homoger>eous
processing elements interconnected by multistage networtts. The
mechanism aims at msJdng effective use of hardware resources
of tfie multiprocessor system in support of high-performance parallel
computations. The mechanism can create many physically
indeperxjent sut>systems simultaneously without incurrir^g intemal
fragmentation. Each subsystem can then configure itself to form
a desired topology for matching the structure of the parallel
corrputation. Tt)e proposed mechanism is distritxited in nature. It
is divided into ttvee furtctionally disjoint procedures wt^ich may
reside in different loci for harKfling various resource management
tasks concurrently. Furthermore, the simulation results show that
with the elimination of internal fragmentation, tf>e proposed
mechanism achieves t)etter resource utilization in comparison to

In the first stage of the document retrieval process, no
information concerning relevance of a particular document is
available. On the other hand, computer implementation requires
that the analysis be made only for a sample of retrieved documents.
This paper addresses the significance and suitability of two different

inevitability of resorting to a logarithmic criterion in order to achieve
a 'spread of representativeness' from the multicollection is
demonstrated. Author

The management of data generated from satellite missk>ns
has not always led to effective access of that data tiy the scientifk:
community. NASA has tried to alleviate this problem for ocean
scientists, by initiating a program, the NASA Ocean Data System
(NODS). The menu-based user interface that NODS employs alk)ws
a user to make request and receive answers within a short time
of accessing the system. A catalog system. whk:h hokis informatk>n
about oceanographic data sets may be queried to determine the
suitat^lfty of a particular data set. Once a candklate data set Is
found, the user is directed to the person or place whk^h actually
holds the data. NODS also has an archive system that holds data
from ocean-observif>g satellites. The archive may be queried to
obtain a manageable data sut>set that can be delivered in a useful
form. Author

To accomplish more detailed simulations of highly complex
flows, such as the transition to turbulence, fluid dynamics research
requires computers much more powerful than any available today.
Only parallel processing on multiple-processor computers offers
hope for achieving the required effective speeds. Looking ahead
to the use of these machines, the fluid dynamicist faces three
issues: algorithm development for near-term parallel computers,
architecture development for future computer power increases, and
assessment of possible advantages of special purpose designs.
Two projects at NASA Langley address these issues. Software
development and algorithm exploration is being done on the
FLEX/32 Parallel Processing Research Computer. New architecture
features are being explored in the special purpose hardware design
of the Navier-Stokes Computer. These projects are complementary
and are producing promising results. Author

THE STANDARDISATION OF ON-BOARD DATA

In order to assess the possible impacts of present and future
standardization efforts, a classification of the areas on on-board
hardware and software that are amenable to standardization is
made. Emphasis is given to the standardization of software,
including that for both space and ground segments. The approach
adopted is to match the data flow in the ground-space system to
the standard OSI seven-layer model of communications. A number
of inconsistencies or difficulties in performing this match are
identified, using, as a basis, an assumed ground-space system
architecture similar to that adopted for previous ESA missions. A
number of areas are identified in which it appears that the definition
and adoption of standards would be of most benefit with regard
to either decreasing costs or increasing the quality and reliability
of the final product. Author

This paper examines the major tasks and features of an
on-board data management system (DMS) being currently designed
for large space systems. The special features of this DMS will
include high damage tolerance, ability to provide communications
between a large number of dissimilar data sources and to transfer
data at high speed, high flexibility in terms of system operation
and growth, and easy maintenance and servicing. A major element
of the DMS is the data network which will be implemented as a
'local area network' and which will transport data between users
at rates compatible with users' requirements. The network
Interfaces will be made simple, reliable, and effective and of a
complexity consistent with the mission objectives. I.S.

The Department of Meteorology at the University of Maryland
is developing one of the first computer systems in meteorology to
take advantage of the new networked computer architecture that
has been made possible by recent advances in computer and
communication technology. Elements of the department's system
include scientific workstations, local mainframe computers, re-
mote mainframe computers, local-area networks, 'long-haul'
computer-to-computer communications, and 'receive-only'
communications. Some background is provided, together with
highlights of some lessons that were learned in carrying out the
design. In agreement with work in the Unidata Project, this work
shows that the networked computer architecture discussed here
presents a new style of resources for solving problems that arise
in meteorological research and education. Author

Effective management of the cockpit environment requires a
sophisticated control technology which embodies the 'contract'
between the pilot and his intelligent cockpit information
management system, which responds asynchronously to the event
driven flight environment, and which manages visual displays and
synthesized voice channels to aid the pilot in maintaining his flight
context. The Avionics Technology Group of the Boeing Military
Airplane Company has employed the 'blackboard' programming
paradigm to develop a sequence of prototype cockpit information
management systems of increasing complexity and capability. The
work reported here is an extension of earlier work which replaces
the simple domain blackboard software with blackboard software
having both a control and a domain component developed by
Boeing Computer Sen/ices. The new cockpit information
management systems implemented in this technology provide the
capability to dynamically allocate priorities of pending tasks.

Project maruigement is a concern for en^neers who need to
track critical techrocal and financial data to accompltsh tasks.
Conservation personr>el are currentiy using physk^al files to store
project data. When data are needed, it is not always easily
accessible. The manual approach is becoming increasingly diffk:ult
as the number of active projects increase. The mini-computer
approach is functional txit requires a large investment for hardware

The NASA Lewis Research Center supports many research
facilities with many isolated buildings, including wind tunnels, test
celts, and research laboratories. These facilities are all located on
a 350 acre campus adjacent to the Cleveland Hopkins Airport.
The function of NASA-Lewis is to do basic and applied research
in all areas of aeronautics, fluid mechanics, materials and
structures, space propulsion, and energy systems. These functions
require a great variety of remote high speed, high volume data
communications for computing and interactive graphic capabilities.
In addition, new requirements for local distribution of intercenter
video teleconferencing and data communications via satellite have
developed. To address these and future communications
requirements for the next 1 5 yrs, a project team was organized to
design and implement a new high speed communication system
that would handle both data and video information in a common
lab-wide Local Area Network. The project team selected cable
television broadband coaxial cable technology as the
communications medium and first installation of in-ground cable
began in the summer of 1980. The Lewis Information Network
(LINK) became operational in August 1982 and has become the
backbone of all data communications and video. Author

There is little research on the impact of information technology
(IT) on how research is carried out by scientists and engineers.
This paper draws on other bodies of writings which indirectly shed
light on this question. Included are: the role of calculation in
research, scientific productivity, the philosophical underpinnings of
science and technology, systems analysis, and the use of computer
aided design in engineering. A model is developed which helps
identify the types of impact that IT may have on social system
and epistemological aspects of research. Factors are hypothesized
which may explain why IT may have particular effects in any given

Scientific applications may make special demands of a data
base management system. It must not just cope with arrays and
floating point numbers, but rather, recognize the different style in
which data are used compared with ordinary commercial systems.
R-EXEC was developed in response to the need for a simple,
portable, relational file manipulation package in the FORTRAN
environment. Relational algebra provides a firm theoretical
foundation. This is then necessarily extended to handle data input,
output, sorting, reports and graphs. The novel command interface
is precedural and user efficient. The development of R-EXEC was
strongly influenced by the immediate demands of applications in
physics and astronomy. Apart from character strings, there are
five numeric data types, all of which can be vectors. The data
relations are self describing files, owned and managed by users
without reference to a database administrator, and with no central
schema to maintain. Particularly powerful data manipulation tools
are the grouping operation, the outer join and the way functions
of attributes are permitted in projection. Null, or default, values
are optional. However, perhaps the most important attraction is
the ease of adding new functions. Author

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has
developed a globally-distributed complex of earth resources data
bases since LANDSAT 1 was launched in 1972. NASA envisages
considerable growth in the number, extent, and complexity of such
data bases, due to the improvements expected in its remote
sensing data rates, and the increasingly multidiscipllnary nature of
its scientific investigations. Work already has begun on information
systems to support multidiscipllnary research activities based on
data acquired by the space station complex and other space-based
and terrestrial sources. In response to a request from NASA's
former Associate Administrator for Space Science and Applications,
the National Research Council convened a committee in June
1985 to Identify the critical issues Involving information systems
support to space science and applications. The committee has
suggested that OSSA address four major information systems
issues; centralization of management functions, interoperability of
user Involvement in the planning and Implementation of its

Real time mission-oriented embedded systems are much more
difficult to design than ordinary software systems. They require
highly reliable and efficient implementations to satisfy mission and
time constraints imposed by the applications. The Ada language
has been design to facilitate real time system software
development. However, for many programmers the size and
complexity of Ada itself are of concern . In the assertive
programming paradigm, computations are specified as sets of
assertions about properties of the solution, and not as a sequence
of procedural steps. Solving procedures are automatically
generated from the assertive description. Real time programming
for mission-oriented systems is supported by equational languages
in which assertions are expressed as algebraic equations. Programs
written in equational languages are concise, free from
implementation details, and easily amenable to verification and
parallel processing. The level of programming expertise required
to program in an equational language is much lower than the
level that is needed by Ada programmers. The paper describes
an implementation of an equational language system which
generates highly efficient distributed code in Ada. It also
demonstrates how the equational language system can be used
in real time software development. GRA

Over just the last few years the power (in terms of speed and
core size) of personal computers has grown at an incredible rate,
which no one could have foreseen, and at the present time they
have reached the point where it is practical to use personal
computers for large scientific applications. What is truly amazing
is that as the power of these personal computers has grown the
price has remained relatively low. Of equal importance to the
availability and cost of personal computers is the availability of
computer software for use on these computers. At the current
time personal computers have excellent FORTRAN compilers and
related supporting software facilities and more and more application
programs are being converted for use on personal computers.
Today we have reached the point where the combination of
personal computer power and tow cost can allow even small
institutes that cannot afford larger computers to have significant
computer resources available for their use. DOE

This chapter provides an account of the transient computational
and storage demands that typically arise during comprehension,
and of the informatton management polfcies that attempt to satisfy
those demands. The chapter describes a numt)er of recent studies
that examine the trading relatk>n between computation and storage
in working memory during language comprehension. Com-
prehension processes tend to minimize storage requirements
by minimizing the number of partial products that have to be stored.
The minimization is accomplished by immediately digesting as much
of the infomnation from the text as possible (what we have called
the immediacy of processing), rather than using a wait-and-see
strategy, A second focus is on the differences among indivkiuals
in their ability to maintain information in working memory during
comprehension. Such irKirvklual differences in woridng memory
capacity are closely related to large and stable indrvk^al differences

The Data Management System network is a complex and

is vital to crew, subsystems and experiments. Al is being considered
to aid in the initial design of the network and to augment the
management of its operation. The Intelligent Resource
Management for Local Area Networks (IRMA-LAN) project is
concerned with the application of Al techniques to network
configuration and management. A network simulation was
constructed employing real time process scheduling for realistic
toads, and utilizing the IEEE 802.4 token passing scheme. This
simulation is an integral part of the construction of the IRMA-LAN
system. From it, a causal model is being constructed for use in
prediction and deep reasoning about the system configuration. An
Al network design advisor is being added to help in the design of
an efficient network. The Al portion of the system is planned to
evolve into a dynamic network management aid. The approach,
the integrated simulation, project evolution, and some initial results

The relative importance of languages in the worid in 1987 is
described showing that the worid populatbn makes use of about
ten languages, each of whk;h covers an area of the globe. The
trends are revealed by an analysis of population density and
sock>-economk; balances. The use of language is studied in the
fiekJ of science and technology, according to the type of
communication (written or spoken) and the contents (from
mathematk;s to technology) and the tendencies are shown. The
attempts whteh were made to overcome the linguistic barrier -
such as the introduction of a single common language (esperanto
or English) or the development of the study of foreign languages
are examined. The detailed analysis of the cultural barrier is carried
out by several approaches (sociological. psychosock>k>gksal.

The space programs of different countries are reviewed and
ongoing developments in launch vehicle capability and manned
space operations are identified. The primary feature of the new
Soviet rocket Energia is its role as the booster for the Soviet
Space Shuttle which is expected to lift up to 66.000 pounds of
cargo. A small spaceplane has been developed which will replace
the Soyuz-TM spacecraft in 1991 as a crew and limited-cargo
transport to Mir. Space policy in the U.S. is discussed as well as
the International Space Station, the return of expendable launchers,
the evolution of Ariane, a European manned program, Japan's
manned space goals, and India's domestic programs. K.K.

This paper presents a status report on the study of a
next-generation manned launch system, called Shuttle II, being
conducted at the NASA Langley Research Center. Underlying
reasons for considering such a system include the need for
low-cost, safe, and reliable manned access to space. System and
operational characteristics for a Shuttle 11 vehicle are presented.
The need for fully reusable launch systems with radically simpler
ground and flight operations is stated to be critical in reducing
launch costs. Advancing technologies have a major impact on the
choice of vehicle concepts. For a near-term level of technology, a
two-stage vertical-takeoff rocket vehicle has been selected for
further in-depth Shuttle II studies. The role of the Shuttle II vehicle
in a proposed space transportation system, which includes heavy
lift and Space Shuttle complementary manned systems, is
discussed. Author

It appears very likely that eariy next century a lunar base wilt
be established to explore and utilize the resources of the moon.
This paper offers first a set of objectives which can be used for
comparing alternative plans for such an international lunar base.
Also the effects of lunar base size on its cost-effectiveness is
shown. Furthermore the architecture of a lunar base is described.
The major thrust of the paper is the presentation of a scenario
which might lead to an international lunar base. The subjects
discussed are: program scope and structure, program organization,
program financing and ways and means of initiating such a program.
The program presented envisions the establishment of a lunar
orbiting Space Station by no later than the year 2001 and the
construction of an initial lunar laboratory by no later thfin the year
2010 to be followed by a lunar factory. A 'Lunar Development
Conference' is suggested to take place in 1989 where Werested
national governments and parties should discuss the objectives,
structure, scope, schedule and organizational alternatives ofan
international lunar base. Author

CVD processes have been developed for the deposition of
continuous diamond films under carefully controlted conditior^ that
permit a tailoring of resulting characteristics. Generally. CVD
diamond films are strong, stiff, hard, and slippery; they can transmit
light from the FIR through the UV. and are five times more thennally
conductive than copper. Diamond semiconductors will t>e able to
operate at mudi higher etectricat power levels than competing
materials. The hardness of these films, together with their high
transparericy. encourages their use as protective coatings for
delicate optical device windows. Comparisons are made between
true diamond film properties and those of CVD €fianrK>ndtike

Advanced microgravtty plant biology research and life support
system development for the spacecraft environment are critically
hampered by the lack of a technology base. This inadequacy
stems primarily from the fact that microgravity results in a lack of
convective currents and phase separation as compared to the
one gravity environment. A program plan is being initiated to
develop this technology base. This program will provide an iterative
flight development effort that will be closely integrated with both
basic science investigations and advanced life support system
development efforts incorporating biological processes. The critical
considerations include optimum illumination methods, root aeration,
root and shoot support, and heat rejection and gas exchange in
the plant canopy. Author

CHOOSING PARTNERS FOR A MANNED MISSION TO MARS
MICHAEL A. G. MICHAUD (U.S. Department of State, Washington,
DC) Space Policy (ISSN 0265-9646), vol. 4, Feb. 1988, p.
12-18. refs
Proposals for cooperation with the USSR in space are
discussed. It is shown that any U.S. administration will remain
sensitive to the transfer of technologies central to the achievement
of a Mars mission (such as propulsion, sensors, computers, and
communication) which can be used for military purposes.
Experience suggests that making a Mars mission dependent on
U.S.-Soviet cooperation may delay its realization. A complementary
model is outlined in which technologies are developed separately,
and the exchange of information concerns mission plans, scientific
data, mutual support on the Martian surface, and rescue capability.
It is concluded that a cooperative Mars-rover and surface-sample-
return effort could provide a useful precedent for complementary
manned Mars missions. A.S.

The preventive, diagnostic, and treatment capabilities of the
Health Maintenance Facility (HMF) which will fly aboard the Space
Station are discussed. The preventive aspects of the HMF will
include facilities for fitness-maintenance exercises and for the
periodic collection and evaluation of physiological data which wilt
be used to detect early changes in physiological parameters and
to institute corrective measures if needed. This data base will
also help to determine the natural history of physiologic changes
in space and to define the physiologic norms for microgravity.
The dignostic capabilities, which will include cardiorespiratory
assessment, clinical laboratory analyses, and imaging system, will
enable the crew members to detect and diagnose medical problems
inflight and to intitiate remedial action immediately. The treatment
capabilities will include a life support module, an anesthesia and

1986, Paper. 17 p. refs
Research areas covered by space physiology experiments
conducted in the USSR since 1948 are overviewed together with
the sources of Soviet information on space physiology that exist
for U.S scientists. It is emphasized that information sources
stemming from international scientific contact, in form of meetings
or personal contacts of scientists, and, in particular, in form of
joint experiments, present the most reliable and relevant sources
of information. Two major bilateral exchanges between the two
countries in the past have been the exchange of data on space
physiology during the meetings of the Joint Working Group of
Space Biology and Medicine, during which the representatives of
the Soviet Institute for Biomedical Problems and of NASA's Life
Sciences Division have exchanged data on the Soyuz-Salyut
project, and the joint Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, which afforded
the U.S scientists a rare close look at the Soviet instruments

This paper summarizes the results of a thorough performarx^e
study of Get Away Special (GAS) payloads that was conducted in
1 986. During the study a complete list of standard and nonstandard
GAS payloads vs. Shuttle mission was constructed, including
specific titles for the experiments in each canister. A t>road data
base for each canister and each experiment was then compiled.
Performance results were then obtained for all txit a few
experiments. The canisters and experiments were sut>sequentty
categorized according to the degree of experiment success. For
those experiments that experienced failures or anomalies, several
correlations and generalizations were extracted from individual
subsystem performance data. RecommerKtatk>ns are made whk^
may enhance the success and performance of future GAS
payloads. Author

The principal barrier to space exploration and development is
the cost of launching materials from the surface of the earth into
orbit. This seemingly inescapable obstacle can be overcome by
using resources already in space for propellents, shielding, life
support and constnjction. This paper outlines the work of the
Space Studies Institute in developing the tools and techniques
which will enable the space program to reach a new level of
maturity characterized by the use of locally-available resources
for space operations. Author

A graphic tool, the SSD graph, is proposed for three important
phases of project management: planning and scheduling, control,
and evaluation. The SSD graph represents the structure, states
(scheduled and actual states), and deviation of a system. A project
management system using the SSD graph is developed, and it
visualizes the actual state of a project and keeps the historical
record of the project performance. This system allows a project
manager to see overall status and to review the project
performance. Several applications have shown its usefulness for
scheduling and control of project systems. Author

A comprehensive evaluation is made of current national and
international collaborative resources for space projects and the
prospects for their future development. While the space research
programs of the USSR, Western Europe, and Japan are flourishing,
the delayed resumption of Space Shuttle operations has restricted
U.S. efforts to such paytoads as may be carried on obsolescent
launch vehicles. Nevertheless, brisk activity is noted in U.S.
spacecraft manufacture and in the elaboration of ambitious
long-term plans for satellites and planetary probes. O.C.

An overview of NASA research in rotorcraft technology is
presented. Ten percent of the NASA aeronautics program is made
up of rotorcraft research. The aeronautics program conducts
research in five areas: aerodynamics, propulsion, materials and
structures, information sciences and human factors, and flight
systems. The key objectives of NASA research are major reduction
in external noise and aircraft vibration, reduction of pilot workload
for night, adverse weather and NOE flying, increasing power and
reducing fuel consumption in small engines, and identifying and
exploiting vehicle characteristics and concepts for triple current
speed and improved maneuverability and agility. NASA and Army
resources are combined to pursue research at three major centers.
The Ames research center conducts research in the physics of
transition and turbulent flows, using a new improved wind tunnel
and the NAS system. At the Langley Research Center, work is
done in noise and vibration reduction, finding lighter and more
durable composite stmctures. and aeroelasticity for tilt motors and
X-wing configurations. At the NASA Lewis Research Center,
researchers are working on improving helicopter propulsion
systems. r.b.

The paper proposes a modular low earth orbit space farm
which combines the current CELSS technology with a single launch,
artificial gravity space vehicle to provide fresh produce to a nearby
space station crew in a balanced exchange for their biodegradable
waste and carbon dioxide. While growing a substantial amount of
produce, the space farm will also be developing the plant
propagation technology for transfer to future lunar colonies and to
accompany long range space missions, i.e., interplanetary
exploration. The components of the space farm will be launched
by conventional booster, then manned, assembled and operated
by a crew of two. Since the space farm is habitable during all
stages of development, the Shuttle rendezvous to deliver the crew
will be brief. Adding modules will facilitate increasing crop yields.

July 1988. p. 28-40.
In October, 1986, NASA Langley's Critical Evaluation Task
Force recommended that the Space Station be built in two phases.
The relatively modest Phase I station would encompass the central
horizontal truss of the dual-keel model, together with all pressurized
modules; this would entail 19 Space Shuttle flights over three
years. Phase II. for which funding approval would be sought only
after substantial progress toward launching Phase I, would use
six additional Shuttle flights to put the full dual-keel Space Station
configuration in operating order. As Phase I is embarked upon,
major programmatic questions remain as to the intersection of
military and international interests in the Space Station's design
and use. O.C.

NASA's $850-million 'Pathfinder' project has as its goal the
definition and development of generic technologies for future
missions beyond earth orbit; these are grouped under the
categories of 'exploration*, 'operations', 'transfer vehicles', and
'human life support'. Pathfinder will attempt to define advanced
capabilities for both manned and unmanned ventures, of which
the latter may be typified by a Mars sample-return mission by
1998. A Mars mission would entail substantial development of
such techniques as aerobraking, in order to reduce spacecraft
earth departure masses by up to 50 percent, as well as electric
propulsion and controlled-environment life-support systems. O.C.

NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) has the
responsibility for the telemetry ground data processing for two
current spacecraft which use packet telemetry. These spacecraft
are the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and the Gamma Ray
Observatory (GRO). GSFC has designed and built two ground
systems to meet this responsibility. The first is the HST DATA
Capture Facility (DCF), which has now completed its integration
and test phase and is supporting spacecraft and data flow tests.
The second is the Packet Processor System (Pacor). This system
became operational in July 1987. These systems are known
generally as Level Zero Processors. Level Zero Processors ingest
telemetry composite bit streams, output selected user specific data
in real time, and in a batch mode perform all necessary processing
to produce individual user data files which are, within the limits of
the quality of the received data, contiguous, complete, ordered
and nonredundant. Author

A study has been conducted to determine the
articulated-pointing requirements of a suite of instruments carried
by the NASA Space Station, and define a pointing system
architecture accomodating those requirements. It is found that
these pointing requirements are sufficiently exacting, and the Space
Station's disturbance environment sufficiently severe, to preclude
the successful use of a conventional gimbal-pointing system; a
gimbaled system incorporating an isolation stage is judged capable
of furnishing the requisite levels of pointing performance. O.C.

NASA RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT - A RETURN TO
LEGITIMACY
ANGELA L PRAY AIAA Student Journal (ISSN 0001-1460),
vol. 26, Summer 1988, p. 24-30. refs
It is suggested that an at once pragmatic and fundamental
solution to the difficulties in which NASA has found itself in the
wake of the Space Shuttle Challenger accident is to reassert
NASA's original orientation toward R and D. In an R and
D-dominated institutional climate, goals and limits are more easily
adhered to without the forcing of goal definition or breaking of
established limits by unexpected operational costs. Such a basis
for meticulous planning would also ease funding rivalries among
alternative programs. ESA is held out as a model for such a
redirection of NASA activities, in view of its clear separation
between R and D and operational responsibilities. O.C.

In the field of bioastronomy, at least 20 search strategies and
other next steps are possible at present. Twenty possible strategies
and projects are listed. They are arranged in five clusters: (1)
develop the field of bioastronomy and its ideas; (2) search beyond
the solar system; (3) search inside the solar system; (4) search
the earth; and (5) take action to make the contact beneficial.
Three assessments are provided for each strategy: (1) the likelihood
of success if there are adequate effort and funding; (2) the
magnitude of benefits to humanity if it is successful; and (3) the
likely payoff from greatly increased effort and resources. It is
concluded that nine strategies are particularly high-priority but all
nine are neglected or at least underfunded at present. Author

construction experiments, the Experimental Asserrtity of Structures
in Extravehicular Activity (EASE) and the Assembly Concept for
Construction of Erectat>le Space Structures (ACCESS), were
combined into a payload managed by the center. The
Ease/ ACCESS was flown aboard the Space Shuttle Mission 61 -B.
The EASE/ACCESS experiments wwe the first structures
assembled in space, and the method used to manage this
successful effort will be useful for future space construction
missions. The MSEC mtesion management responsibilities for the

When technology developed for a specific purpose is used in
another application, the process is called technology transfer-the
application of an existing technology to a new use or user for
purposes other than those for which the technology was ori^nally
intended. Using Biblioyaphical Databases in Technology Transfer
deals with demand-pull transfer, technology transfer that arises
from need recognition, and is a guide for conducting demand-pull
technology transfer studies. It can be used by a researcher as a
self-teaching manual or by an instmctor as a classroom text. A
major problem of technology transfer is finding applicable
technology to transfer. Described in detail is the solution to this
problem, the use of computerized, bibliographic databases, which
currently contain vfftuaHy all documented technology of the past
15 years. A general framework for locating technology is described.
NASA technology organizations and private technology transfer
firms are listed for consultation. Author

Parametric data for six waste management subsystems
considered for use on the Space Station are compared, i.e.: (1)
dry incineration; (2) wet oxidation; (3) supercritical water oxidation;
(4) vapor compression distillation; (5) thermoelectric integrated
membrane evaporation system; and (6) vapor phase catalytic
ammonia removal. The parameters selected for comparison are
on-orbit weight and volume, resupply and return to Earth logistics,
power consumption, and heat rejection. Trades studies are
performed on subsystem parameters derived from the most recent
literature. The Boeing Engineering Trade Study (BETS), an
environmental control and life support system (ECLSS) trade study
computer program developed by Boeing Aerospace Company, is
used to properly size the subsystems under study. The six waste
treatment subsystems modeled in this program are sized to process
the wastes for a 90-day Space Station mission with an 8-person
crew, and an emergency supply period of 28 days. The resulting
subsystem parameters are compared not only on an individual
subsystem level but also as part of an integrated ECLSS.

Novel computer architectures to support Artificial Intelligence
(Al) applications and Al programming languages are under
development in the United States, Japan, and Europe. The Al
application area having greatest influence on computer architecture
is knowledge-based expert systems. Knowledge-based systems
are programs that embody the specialized knowledge of human
experts sufficient to perform as consultants. For programming these
systems, the most suitable languages support symbolic
computation. Symbolic programming languages divide into three
broad classes: functional (e.g., LISP); logical (e.g., PROLOG); and

The report concludes that an enhanced effort of earth materials
research is necessary to advance the understanding of the
processes that shape the planet. In support of such an effort,
there are new classes of experiments, new levels of analytical
sensitivity and precision, and new levels of theory that are now
applicable in understanding the physical and chemical properties
of geological materials. The application of these capabilities
involves the need to upgrade and make greater use of existing
facilities as well as the development of new techniques. A
concomitant need is for a sample program involving their collection,
synthesis, distribution, and analysis. GRA

Space Biology Biological Adaptation Research and its objectives
and to identify future research directions. Two research areas
emerged from these deliberations: gravitational effects on
structures and biomineralization and gravity affected regulatory
nnechanisms. The participants also recommended that research
concentrate on rapidly growing animals, since gravity effects may
be more pronounced during growth and development. Both
research areas were defined and future research directions were
identified. The recommendations of the workshop will assist the
Life Sciences Division of NASA in it assessment and long-range
planning of these areas of space biology. Equally important, the
workshop was intended to stimulate thought and research among

a complex task. The interactions between federal laboratories and
industry and the market knowledge and at>ility to assess the needs
of business users are beyond the charter of a federal laboratory.
Therefore, new organizational mechanisms are required in order
to obtain full commercial value from the laboratories' efforts. This
paper will analyze cases of new ventures emerging from technology
developed within federal laboratories. Seven models will be

In response to a request from the Office of Science and
Technology Policy of the Executive Office of the President, the
National Council invited a group of industrial research managers
and Federal laboratory representatives to an all-day discussion of
problems with, and opportunities for, cooperation between industrial
firms, and Federal laboratories, with the aim of benefitting American
industry and, ultimately, the U.S. economy as a whole. The meeting
was held on June 10. 1987, at the National Academy of Sciences
in Washington, D.C. Points made: transferring technology from
the Federal laboratories is easier now than it was 20 years ago;
Federal laboratories are more willing to facilitate such transfers-
Federal laboratory and industry cultures do not match perfectly!
but there is a high level of goodwill between them; and obstacles
remain, especially in obtaining approvals for the formal transfer of
technology elements, such as patent rights. GRA

Three broad goals were presented by NASA as a guide to
meet the challenges of the future: to advance scientific knowledge
of the planet Earth, the solar system, and the universe; to expand
human presence beyond the Earth into the solar system; and to
strengthen aeronautics research and technology. Near-term and
new-generation space transportation and propulsion systems are
being analyzed that will assure the nation access to and presence
in space. Other key advanced studies include large astronomical
observatories, space platforms, scientific and commercial payloads,
and systems to enhance operations in Earth orbit. Longer-range
studies include systems that would allow humans to explore the
Moon and Mars during the next century. Research programs, both
to support the many space missions studied or managed by the
Center and to advance scientific knowledge in selected areas,
involve work in the areas of atmospheric science, earth science,
space science (including astrophysics and solar, magnetospheric,
and atomic physics), and low-gravity science. Programs and
experiment design for flights on the Space Station, free-flying
satellites, and the Space Shuttle are being planned. To maintain
a leadership position in technology, continued advances in liquid
and solid propellant engines, materials and processes; electronic,
structural, and thermal investigations; and environmental control
are required. Progress during the fiscal year 1987 is discussed,

The Cryogenic Fluid Management Technology Workshop was
held April 28 to 30, 1987, at the NASA Lewis Research Center in
Cleveland, Ohio. The major objective of the workshop was to
identify future NASA needs for technology concerning the
management of subcritical cryogenic fluids in the low-gravity space
environment. In addition, workshop participants were asked to
identify those technologies which will require in-space
experimentation and thus are candidates for inclusion in the flight
experiment being defined at Lewis. The principal application for
advanced fluid management technology is the Space-Based Orbit
Transfer Vehicle (SBOTV) and its servicing facility, the On-Orbit
Cryogenic Fuel Depot (OOCFD). Other potential applications
include the replenishment of cryogenic coolants (with the exception
of superfluid helium), reactants, and propellants on board a variety
of spacecraft including the space station and space-based weapon
systems. The last day was devoted to a roundtable discussion of
cryogenic fluid management technology requirements by 30
representatives from NASA, industry, and academia. This volume
contains a transcript of the discussion of the eight major technology
categories. Author

The Johnson Space Center has established five major goals
to meet the Nation's expectation of maintaining U.S. preeminence
in space. The first three are technical in nature. They define the
basic mission-the reason for being. The two goals relating to the
Space Shuttle and Space Station are obviously the most demanding
in their immediate claim for major resources. The third goal is
equally important in that the technical competence must be
maintained and enhanced. The remaining two goals address the
two critical success factors required for achieving the first three.
One goal pertains to maintaining and enhancing the highly skilled
work force. The other goal concerns the important relations with
other key members of the U.S. space team. Each goal is listed
along with a proposed strategy or approach for implementing each
goal. Subsequently, each goat is accompanied by a brief

This review of Soviet civilian remote sensing research and
technology is based mainly on literature published by Soviet
sctentists and to a much smaller extent on information contained
in Soviet press releases and elsewhere. An overall assessment of
Soviet research and technology in remote sensing is provided.
The sensors, methodologies, and results of the Soviet remote
sensing program in the solar reflective, thermal infrared. ar>d
microwave regions of the electrom^>etic spectrum are examined.
Also discussed is the Soviet work in data handUng and ffiformation
extraction. The general conclusion is that the Ur^ted States leads
the Soviet Union by about five years in most areas of remote
sensing research and technology. This lead is mairHy the result of
the superior microelectronics technology and computing capability
of the United States, particularly with regard to the ^emetry and
processing of large quantities of high-quality. sateime-accMred.
digital image data-the starting point for most Western research
and application studies in remote sensing. Author

It was the fifth in an annual series of symposia sponsored prindpaMy
by the University of New Mexico and the New Mexico technical
community, and included Federal government, inAistrial. national
laboratory, and university participants. The past year had seen
continued technical and programnmtic successes in the SP-100
Space Power Reactor and Multimegawatt Space Nuclear Power
programs. With the Space Shuttle to fly again in 1968. more
attention can be devoted to developing the technology needed
for future long duration space travel. Safe, reliable space nuclear

Planetary exploration has provided a torrent of (tiscoveries and
a recognition that planets are not inert objects. This expanded
view has led to the notion of comparative planetology, in which
the differences and similarities amortg planetary objects are
assessed. Solar system exploration is undergoing a change from
an era of reconnaissance to one of intensive exploration and
focused study. Analyses of planetary surfaces are playing a key
role in this transition, espectaity as attention is focused on such
exploration goals as returned samples from Mars. To assess how
the science of planetary geology can best contribute to the goals
of solar system exploration, a woricshop was held at Arizona State
University in January 1987. The partic^jants discussed previous
acconrplishments of the planetary geology pro-am. assessed the
current studies in planetary geology, and considered the
requirements to meet near-term and long-term exploration goals.

This report reviews and assesses the technology transfer effort
of the DOE'S Office of Transportation Systems (OTS) and offers
recommendations for future technology transfer activities. The OTS
technology transfer strategy calls for maximum industry involvement
in both the identification and solution of R and D problems. This
strategy is supported not only by utilizing industry as the research
contractor, but also through a variety of other technology transfer
activities. After reviewing the technical accomplishments of the
Office, the report describes some of the barriers that Inhibit
commercialization of these accomplishments. Primary, secondary,
and spin-off audiences for OTS R and D are then characterized.
An inventory of recent OTS technology transfer activities follows
and is supplemented by nine detailed case studies of technology
transfer. These case studies represent five distinct approaches to
technology transfer and a wide array of mechanisms including:
contracting to industry, licensing, demonstration projects, user
facilities, and financial incentives. The report ends with a list of
recommended future technology transfer activities. DOE

Satellite remote sensing for water management is discussed.
The anticipated advantages of satellite remote sensing for
hydrology are not likely to accrue unless specific consideration
continues to be given to its peculiar demands both for satellite
and/or sensor systems, and for Its own supporting programs of
research, information sharing, education, and training. The chief
and most distinctive needs for hydrological sensors are for dual
polarized, scanning multichannel microwave radiometers (primarily
for rainfall, ice and snow, and soil moisture evaluation and
monitoring) and steerable synthetic aperture radars (primarily for
more local snow, surface, and sub-surface water evaluation, and
mapping). Hydrological user requirements are especially demanding
because many hydrological parameters vary rapidly through both
space and time, thus calling for data with the highest possible
spatial and temporal resolutions. The operational usage of satellite
data in hydrology and water management calls mainly for near-real
time access to data, the integration of remotely sensed and
collateral data sets, and a disseminated networi< of relatively
low-cost, user-friendly, interactive data processing systems. ESA

people on land but maritime and aeronautk:al users as well. It will
also offer major benefits to truck and automobile drivers, making

Testing Seminar, 10th, Los Angeles, CA, Mar. 10-12, 1987.
Proceedings. Mount Prospect, IL, Institute of Environmental
Sciences, 1987, p. 35-47. refs
This paper describes the program risk management
methodology that is currently in use on DoD system development
programs. The risk analysis methodology employs probabilistic
critical path networking, to account for and correlate the project
risk factors. When applied to system test planning, testing, and
evaluation, the risk analysis encompasses all test and test support
activities. Input data includes variable activity durations, resource
(labor, facilities, equipment) requirements, and cost factors.
Typically, the risk analysis results are used to establish realistic
schedules compatible with acceptable levels of technical, cost
and schedule risks. Author

The paper considers a possible future in which the Space
Station is operated by an international partnership of private sector
firms. It considers the desirability of this scenario by examining its
effects on the various players. It then suggests a series of steps
by which such an arrangement might be brought about, including
the agreements which would be necessary between the involved
governments and the private sector, and the activities each would
have to undertake to carry out its part of the bargain. Finally, it
addresses whether NASA's baseline Space Station Operations
Management Concept offers an indication that the Agency might
be more willing to consider a private alternative than might
othenwise be thought. Author

Space utilization used to be an issue in fields such as
communications, broadcasting, and meteorology. Such space
utilization counts on the high altitudes of artificial satellites.
Recently, the additional interest was shown in the utilization of
such aspects of the space environment as microgravity and high
vacuum. More concretely, interest is present regarding the
possibility of material development, e.g., crystal growth, in a
microgravitational environment where there is little difference in
gravity between different materials and where no thermal
convection is caused. Movements in that direction are already
active in the United States and Europe. In Japan, space
environment utilization is being tackled, regarding it as a field of
space utilization, coming after rockets and artificial satellites. The
present status of the Japanese space utilization programs is

To understand what role satellites may play in Integrated
Services Digital Network (ISDN), it is necessary to understand the
concept of ISDN, including key organizations involved, the current
status of key standards recommendations, and domestic and
international progress implementation of ISDN. Each of these areas
are explained. A summary of the technical performance criteria
for ISDN, current standards for satellites in ISDN, key players in
the ISDN environment, and what steps can be taken to encourage
application of satellites in ISDN are also covered. Author

Both the theoretical and practical aspects of costing extensions
of technology are addressed. A method for measuring the level
of technology emt>odied in a system is developed. The increment
in technology represented by a development project is found to
be highly correlated with development time. Development time Is
then broken down into normal and abnormal components, which
are found to be con^elated with development cost. Cost control
methods are developed. GRA

High transport costs will dominate the pattern of lunar
development Dwng the earliest phases, when lunar facilities
consist of a research and resource development complex with
staff serving tours of a few months, transport costs will encourage
local production of food, fuel, arxi building materials. Once tt>ese
capat>ilities are in place and the rHjrT4>6r of persorv)el grows to a
few hundred, staff rotation might well ck>minate transport txidgets.
At that point it would make economic sense to erKXHjrage some
memt>ers of staff to t>ecome permanent residents. By analogy
with early British settlemerrt in Australia, a vigorous private sector
economy could emerge if the lunar organization provided
quasi-export earning through its role as the community's major
employer and as the major buyer of locally-produced goods. By
providing such a market for goods and services, the lunar
organization would not only provkle a means whereby permanent
residents would support themselves but coukj also accelerate the
process of replacing imported goocte with local manufactures,
thereby reducing the cost of operations. By analogy with recent
Alaskan experience, if the resource development activity started
makir^g money from sales to ort>ital customers, severance taxes
and or royalty payments couM also provkte means by whk;h a
lunar community coukj st4>port itself. DOE

A simulation program (SIMULAV) is presented that is capable
of modeling large-scale reliability systems. The program can model
the effect of such logistics characteristics as inventory,
transportation, and facilities on the reliability and availability of the
system. The program is written in Pascal and it consists of three
main elements: a process-oriented simulation language, a minimal
cut-sets algorithm, and a simulation model to estimate the
availability of a complex system. The model is implemented using
the process-oriented simulation language and it uses the minimal
cut-sets to determine system failure. It assumes that the system
can be represented by a reliability block diagram. Examples are
modeled to show how SIMULAV can be used to assess the effect
of some logistic parameters on the availability of the system.

Large scale mechanical systems are composed of
interconnected dynamic components. This paper seeks to simplify
the model of each dynamic component so that the overall system
is a manageable size. Models of components are reduced so as
to approximate the response of all components and the nonworking
constraint forces acting on all components. The technique is an
extension of component cost analysis which decompose the norm
of the response vector (in this case the response and the vector
of nonworking constraint forces) into contributions of each
coordinate of each component. In this way the coordinates can
be ranked according to their contribution and deleted accordingly.

Vehicle management is the integrated control of the flight,
propulsion, and aircraft utility systems. The implementation of this
concept into a control architecture forms a Vehicle Management
System (VMS). A practical VMS design can provide significant
performance and supportability benefits to military aircraft.
Performance enhancements are achieved by integrated control to
optimize previously independent systems. Supportability is
increased through the comprehensive diagnostics, component
commonality, and reduced complexity provided by integrated digital
systems. This paper reviews the concept of a VMS and addresses
the issues of functional and physical integration. A generic approach
to VMS design is outlined and illustrated. Key elements for future
VMS bench and flight demonstration are also identified. Author

New measurement capabilities developed in the last five years
have greatly enhanced the ability of monitoring systems to produce
acceptable engine distress and maintenance information to pilots.
The more recent advances are particularly useful for military and
helicopter engines. This paper describes three new techniques,
with descriptions of their application. These include direct
aerodynamic thrust measurement, gas path distress analysis and
analysis of the dynamic behavior of gas turbines. The paper
concludes by suggesting the impact of these techniques on systems
design for future engines. Author

Some specific benefits and cost savings resulting from the
effective impementation of nondestructive inspection in conjunction
with aircraft maintenar>ce are identified. It is r>oted ttiat specrftc
costs associated with a given nondestructive test or inspection
should be considered in relation to consequential upstreaun
manufacturing costs associated with nondestructive evaluation
(e.g.. the reduced yield because of the parts that fail tests) and
consequentiat downstream cost savirtgs (e.g., decreased premature
removal rate, reduced failure rate, and reduced liability costs). In
most situations, these indirect costs are much larger than the
direct costs associated with nondestructive testing. The need for
developing the engineering ar>d ecofK>mic methodology to optimize
tradeoffs between downstream cost savings and inspection and
manufacturing costs is emphasized. V.L

Pavement Maintenance Management System. PAVER is a
field-tested, validated pavement maintenance management for
airports, cities, counties, and military installations which is designed
to optimize the funds allocated for pavement maintenance and
rehabilitation (M and R). This report discusses the development
of the Micro PAVER program and its capabilities in the areas of
pavement network inventory, project prioritization, inspection
scheduling, determining present and future network condition,
determining maintenance and rehabilitation needs, budget planning,
and economic analysis. The Micro PAVER technology is based
on the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) survey and rating procedure
developed at USA-CERL, The PCI. which is a numerical index
from to 100, is a measure of the pavement's structural integrity
and operational condition and is computed as a function of distress
type, severity, and quantity. The PCI provides an objective and
consistent measure of pavement condition. Micro PAVER provides
data and procedures for practical decisionmaking to identify
cost-effective maintenance and rehabilitation needs for roads,

scavenging system scavenges liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen
from the launch propulsion tankage during orbital maneuvers and
stores them in well insulated liquid accumulators for use ffi a

propulsion propellent which may be scavenged for propid^
purposes is estimated to be 45.1 percent The auxiliary propidsion

Every spacecraft, whether in ort>it around the earth or an a
deep space flight, has at its disposal limited amounts of the
resources for it to accomplish its mission. Activity scheduling is
cunwTtly a costiy, human intensive task which requires a great
deal of expertise. It l>elongs to a class of problems whose
complexity increases exponentially with the number of operations.
NASA has in the past accomplished tiiis task by using a great
deal of manpower, a large number of negotiating sessions,
interminable bouts of phone tag. and mountains of paperwork.
Lately the situation has improved with the introduction of automated
scheduling techniques, but these to date still require expert
involvement and fall short in some important ways. A prototype
activity scheduler. MAESTRO, is introduced whteh is capable of

Spacecraft inventory management is currently performed by
the crew and as systems become more complex, increased crew
time will be required to perform routine logistics activities. If future
spacecraft are to function effectively as research labs and
production facilities, the efficient use of crew time as a limited
resource for performing mission functions must be employed. The
use of automation and robotics technology, such as automated
warehouse and materials handling functions, can free the crew
from many logistics tasks and provide more efficient use of crew
time. Design criteria for a Space Station Automated Logistics
Inventory Management System is focused on through the design
and demonstration of a mobile two armed terrestrial robot. The
system functionally represents a gravity automated inventory
management system and the problems associated with operating
in such an environment. Features of the system include automated
storage and retrieval, item recognition, two armed robotic
manipulation, and software control of all inventory item transitions
and queries. Author

The Space Station era presents a highly-complex multi-mission
planning and scheduling environment exercised over a highly
distributed system. In order to automate the scheduling process,
customers require a mechanism for communicating their scheduling
requirements to NASA. A request language that a remotely-located
customer can use to specify his scheduling requirements to a
NASA scheduler, thus automating the customer-scheduler interface,
is described. This notation. Flexible Envelope-Request Notatiori
(FERN), allows the user to completely specify his scheduling
requirements such as resource usage, temporal constraints, and
scheduling preferences and options. The FERN also contains
mechanisms for representing schedule and resource availability
information, which are used in the inter-scheduler inconsistency
resolution process. Additionally, a scheduler is described that can
accept these requests, process them, generate schedules and
return schedule and resource availability information to the
requester. The Request-Oriented Scheduling Engine (ROSE) was
designed to function either as an independent scheduler or as a
scheduling element in a network of schedulers. When used in a
network of schedulers, each ROSE communicates schedule and
resource usage information to other schedulers via the FERN
notation, enabling inconsistencies to be resolved between
schedulers. Individual ROSE schedules are created by viewing
the problem as a constraint satisfaction problem with a heuristicallv
guided search strategy. Author

Preflight and flight battery system problems in flight programs
at NASA created high-level concern and interest in the current
battery technology status. As a result. NASA conducted an in-house
review of problems experienced both internally and by other
government users. The derived issues which encompassed the
programmatic scope from cell manufacturing to in-flight operations
of the system are discussed. From the identified deficiencies, a
modestly scaled battery program was established to alleviate or
minimize the risks of future occurrences. Author

Ramjet propulsion systems evolved into a modem era starting
in the mid 1960's with the advent of the Integral Rocket/Ramjet
concept. At least ten different liquid fueled ramjet propulsion
arrangements for missiles have been development tested during
this period with three concepts having proceeded through flight
testing. This paper identifies the prot)lems and pitfalls discovered
during those development programs. An overview is given of tfie
various ramjet propulsion systems which have been evaluated in
test programs. The various testing techniques are summarized
along with the major difficulties that were encountered.
Recommendations are made for essentia! test procedures and
hardware arrangements. A comparison is made of the different
types of propulsion arrangements and how required testing
programs may vary among configurations. Author

SIMULATION - ANTIDOTE TO RISK
LEE DAY and GRAHAM SPEED (Singer Link-Miles, Ltd., Lancing,
England) Spaceflight (ISSN 0038-6340). vol. 30, June 1988 d
240-243.
The use of simulators to reduce risk in space programs is
discussed. Simulation is used in system verification during the
early phases of a project to substitute for missing system elements,
allowing for verification of the overall system design, so that
modifications can be made before hardware is manufactured. The
new focus in developing simulators is on training analysis to provide
a system tailored to the tasks and characteristics of trainees.
This involves a structured progression incorporating only those
stages of training found necessary through analysis. A number of
simulators are networked in the final stage of training the flight
crew, ground controllers, and the mission-related payload user
and control personnel. In the development of the Columbus
Attached Pressurized Module or the Japanese Experimental
Module, software models and hardware mock-ups are linked
together so that progressively larger simulations of the system
can be performed. Prototype equipment is substituted for the
models until the entire system is in place. The need for simulation
continues after a mission launch because of the remoteness of
support activity from the home base. r.B.

This paper presents a risk assessment of four future space
initiatives: Mission to Planet Earth. Exploration of the Solar System.
Outpost on the Moon, and Humans to Mars. This assessment
identifies the potential risk issues so as to plan corrective measures,
identify those key technologies having the greatest potential for
reducing both technical and programmatic risk, and aid in selecting
the preferred low-risk mission approach to the initiatives. Risk is
defined in terms of the ability to achieve the mission/operational
requirements, schedule, or cost goals. The risk assessment
approach is based on a set of risk criteria established in this
paper. The missions are subdivided into functional components;
each component is assessed against the criteria. The result is a
list of potential risk areas for each mission. Also assessed are
required space transportation and orbital facilities. Some technical
risks have been addressed by the NASA Project Pathfinder
technology program; however, others identififed in this paper require
attention. Author

A criterion, in the form of an equivalent failure rate equation,
is developed which allows for the mean time before failure (MTBF)
specification of a configuration item that is used in different
environments and subject to a varying amount of operational stress.
The degree of stress is formulated as a function of the output
state, time spent in that state, and a corresponding duty cycle. A
methodology is formulated which allows for the expression of failure
rates that are associated with multiple conditions resulting from a
complex operational scenario. The failure rate equations resulting
from this scenario are used to generate a specification that is
tailored for a multiple-use environment. I.E.

as part of the process under control provides greater flexibility for
self diagnosis and maintenance of real-time systems. By assigning
discrete states to the process under control, an 'artificial

NASA regulations require that formal risk analysis be performed
on a program at each of several milestones as it moves toward
full-scale development Program risk analysis is discussed as a
systems analysis approach, an iterative process (identification,
assessment, management), and a collection of techniques. These
techniques, which range from simple to complex network-based
simulation were surveyed. A Program Risk Analysis Handbook was
prepared in order to provide both analyst and manager with a
guide for selection of the most appropriate technique. Author

Three concept designs for low-gravity, fire-safety related
experiments are presented, as selected for the purpose of
addressing key issues of enhancing safety and yet encouraging
access to long-dwation. manned spacecraft such as the NASA
space station. The selected low-gravity experiments are the
following: (1) an investigation of the flame-spread rate and
combustion-product evolution of the bumvig of typ^ thicknesses
of spacecraft materials in very tow-speed ftows; (2) an evaluation
of the interaction of fres and can(«date extinguishers in vanous
fire scenarios; and (3) an investigation of tiie persistence and
propagation of smoWering and deep-seated combustion. Each
experiment is expected to provWe fundamental combustion-science
data, as well as the fire-safety applk:ations. and each requires the
unique long-duration, low-gravity environment of the space station.
Two generic test facilities, i.e.. the Combustion Tunnel Facility
and the Combustion Facility, are proposed for space station
accommodation to support the selected experiments. In addition,
three near-term, fire-safety related experiments are descrit)ed along
with other related precursor activities. Author

Legal questions regarding jurisdiction aboard the International
Space Station are discussed from a U.S. perspective. Topics
examined include (1) national jurisdiction over the Space Station
and/or its components, (2) jurisdiction of courts over specific cases
or controversies, (3) choice-of-law questions resulting from the
adjudication of Space Station disputes, and (4) the sharing of
jurisdiction between the U.S. federal government and the states.
It is suggested that international lawyers have some relevant
experience regarding areas (2) and (3). but that some rules should
probably be developed beforehand due to the highly visible and
political nature of international space ventures. Resolution of the
primarily political and technological conflicts foreseen in area (1)
by mechanisms similar to NATO Status of Forces Agreements is
recommended, and the need for Congressional limits on state
legislation to prevent problems in area (4) is indicated. T.K.

Potential legal questions arising from commercial activities
aboard an international space station are examined in a general
review. The lack of clearly defined regulations governing stations
made up of component modules belonging to different nations is
stressed, and it is argued that simple application of national
jurisdictions over activities on each module is unrealistic. A system
of international regulations based on pragmatic (cost) factors is
recommended, and possible provisions of such an agreement are
discussed. T.K.

The assumptions of the 1958 Space Act are reexamined with
emphasis placed on ways in which they could be modified to
incorporate technical and political developments since 1958. The
question of whether or not the U.S. should continue to run separate
civilian and military space programs is considered and the major
goals of the U.S. space exploration program are outlined. The
development and operation of launch vehicles is discussed In detail
and ways in which the commercial sector could be drawn Into the

A Task Force of the NASA Advisory Council was recently asked
to assess whether the changing global context for space activities
required any adjustments in NASA's approach to its international
activities. This article presents the Task Force's major findings
and conclusions. The U.S.A. must reinvigorate its civil space
program, with responsibility clearly assigned, and long-term goals
and directions established. Through cooperation, it must bring other
nations to share those goals and move in the same directions.

Major technical advances in remote sensing have developed
sophisticated systems with both extensive military and civilian
applications. Not only the U.S.A. and USSR, but a growing number
of other countries such as China. France, India and Japan are
actively engaged in remote-sensing R&D. This article reviews the
capabilities of civilian satellite technologies and programs of various
nations, and examines the implications for national and international
security. Many states are concerned about the commercial
availability of data on their economic resources and national
security-related activities. A particular problem is the possible
misinterpretation of remotely-sensed data. Author

increasingly interested rK>t only in taur>ch servk)es* availat>iHty, but
also the flexibility offered in terms of launch date changes,

It is presently suggested that U.S. national space policies
emerge through the uncoordinated interplay of various interests,
frequently being strongly driven by personalities, with unilateral
interruptions, and without cohesive structure and direction. The
diffuseness of national space policymaking is due to its
simultaneous conduct by Presidential administrations, con-
gressional committees, the DOD, and NASA. A series of policy
proposals is presented which encompass the commercialization
of launch operations by 1990, the establishment of lunar manned
research stations by 2010, and full commitment to a

The results of a two-year study concerning Europe's future in
space are given. The report, conducted by five European institutes,
concluded that Western European nations must work together to
expand their collective space activities. In the area of space
transportation, the report concluded that Europe should build
launchers and develop fully retrievable transportation systems. It
was decided that Europe should develop its satellite capabilities,
establish its own space station and create a Europe-wide system
of ground facilities. Increasing industrial effectiveness, developing
collaborative programs, and promoting technical innovation were
stressed as well. In addition, it was decided to try to maintain a
strong program in space science and research and to reinforce
frameworks for collaboration. Although commercial and security
dimensions of space were dealt with in the study, they were not
included in Europe's space policy. R.B.

Legal aspects of the commercialization of space are examined,
emphasizing international and national legislation, freedom for
private enterprise, and state responsibility. The Outer Space Treaty,
adopted by the U.N. in 1967, insures the freedom of space for
exploration and use by governments and private companies, but
states are responsible for insuring that privately-run space
endeavors adhere to international law. The U.S., U.K. and Sweden

Sometimes two problems are each other's solutions. The two
problems to t>e addressed are capital formation for space resource
utilization (High Frontier) and long term funding of demographicatly
problematic pension and insurartce programs (Social Security). An
ordinary venture capital model of High Frontier fundir^g is
inappropriate and misleading, t>ut a capital formation mechanism
exists that would suffice for the tasks at hand were it not obstructed
by short-sighted laws; legal and economic reform are therefore
important. Taxes singled out for change are those on interest and
dividends, capital gains, inheritance, income, and pensions. Non-tax
areas to be changed are patent arnj copyright laws, age of majority

U.S. COMMERCIAL SPACE TRANSPORTATION RISK
ALLOCATION AND INSURANCE: AN AIAA POSITION PAPER
Washington, DC, American Institute of Aeronautics and
Astronautics, 1988, 8 p.
Insurance and liability aspects of the ongoing U.S. effort to
support the development of commercial launch services are
examined. The system of risk assignment (RA) In place for
NASA-provided launches of commercial payloads Is reviewed: in
such cases, the U.S. government (USG) assumes third-party liability
for risks beyond those covered (with the USG as a nonpaying
named insured) by reasonably priced insurance paid for by the
commercial party. Consideration is then given to the types of risks
and liability involved, the insurability of typical launch risks, the
current RA situation (in which U.S. commercial launch services
are forced to accept risks without adequate insurance, to avoid
losing business); and the RA practices of foreign competitors
(mainly following the NASA precedent). Legislation and regulations
providing for some form of USG assumption or containment of
uninsurable risks, as pari of an RA plan similar to that for NASA
launches, are strongly recommended. T.K.

COLLATERAL ESTOPPEL - THE FAIRNESS EXCEPTION
STEVEN C. MALIN Journal of Air Law and Commerce (ISSN
0021-8642), vol. 53, Summer 1988. p. 959-995. refs
The doctrine of collateral estoppel, or issue preclusion, which
prevents a party from contesting an issue that has previously
been litigated and lost, is examined. The doctrine of mutuality of
estoppel, which prevents a person from takng advantage of a
judgment to which he was not bound, and the ways in which this
doctrine has been handled in the California Supreme Court and in
Federal Court are discussed. Collateral estoppel in air crash cases
is considered. Justifications for allowing estoppel in the absence
of mutuality include the vexation of multiple suits, the conservation
of judicial resources, inconsistent judgments, and the notion that
a party should have only one full and fair chance to litigate any
particular issue. It is proposed that a rule ensuring that 'a defendant
in an action may not be collaterally estopped by an adversary
upon an issue decided in a prior action to which the adversary
was not a party unless the adversary had agreed to be bound
thereby should be adopted. R.B.

CARL Q. CHRISTOL (Southern California. University, Los Angeles.
CA) CIDA, vol. 10. no. 10, 1985, p. 41-84. refs
The bases and prospects for U.S.-Soviet cooperation in space
exploration are explored in the contexts of a general relaxation of
ideological and geopolitical tensions and of the diversion of
weapons and military personnel expenditures to benevolent
exploitation of the space environment. Attention is given to the
emergence of the problem of antisatellite technologies, public
efforts by the Soviet Union to deal with the antisatellite problem,
the major initiatives toward the relaxation of superpower tensions
in space that have been undertaken by the United Nations, the
involvement of the U.S. Congress in space militarization issues,
and progress made in U.S.-U.S.S.R. talks since mid-1984. O.C.

Analysis of Japanese invented patents e^^pear^ in the U.S.
patent system over the 10 yr period 1975 to 1984. shows that
the share of U.S. patents with Japanese inventors increased from
8.8 percent of all U.S. patents in 1975 to 16.5 percent in 1984,
while the share of patents with U.S. inventors decreased from
64.9 to 57.1 percent Japanese inventors obtained 8 percent more
U.S. patents while U.S. inventors obtained 8 percent fewer, and
the rest of the world's inventors remak>ed approx. constant In
the U.S. patent system, the increase m Japanese share was entirely
at the expense of the U.S. The Japar>ese patents are shown to
be quite concentrated in relatively high technology classes related
to those areas of consumer proc^Kts where there is a major
Japanese presence, including electronics, photography, and
automotive techrK>logy. There is also a grow^ Ja4>anese presence
in the pharmaceutical area. When lootced at from the point of
view of citation an^ysis. that is considering highly cited palents
to be patents of particuiar tectmiciri impact and quafity, the
Japanese performance is just as imp r essive. The Japanese position

In April 1985, as required by Public Law 98-371, the NASA
Advanced Technology Advisory Committee (ATAC) reported to
Congress the results of its studies on advanced automation and
robotics technology for use on the space station. This material
was documented in the initial report (NASA Technical Memorandum
87566). A further requirement of the Law was that ATAC follow
NASA's progress in this area and report to Congress semiannually.
This report is the fourth in a series of progress updates and
covers the period October 1, 1986 to May 15, 1987. NASA has
accepted the basic recommendations of ATAC for its space station
efforts. ATAC and NASA agree that the will of Congress is to
build an advanced automation and robotics technology base that
will support an evolutionary space station program and serve as
a highly visible stimulator affecting the long-term U.S. economy.
The progress report identifies the work of NASA and the space
station study contractors, research in progress, and issues
connected with the advancement of automation and robotics
technology on the space station. Author

is increasing. Consequently, the appropriations Committees need
to ensure that the peer review process for the allocation of
university funding is woricing effectively, and that mechanisms are
in place to broaden the base of DoD university research
commensurate with these increasing resources. Therefore, the
conferees direct the Department of Defense to submit a report to
the Appropriations Committees by March 1, 1987, which (1) explains
in detail the curent peer review process in a step-by-step fashion;
(2) explains cun-ent participants in this process, including peer
review panels, boards, or conferences, and how such peer
reviewers are evaluated and chosen; and (3) an analysis of the
potential for expanding the research base into geographical areas
which at the present time receive little defense-related university
funding. This report explains DoD's merit review process and the
participants in that process and also describes the current
