FOREWARD 



Management gathers together references to pertinent documents — reports, journal articles, 
books — that will assist the NASA manager to be more productive. Items are selected and 
grouped according to their usefulness to the manager as manager. A methodology or approach 
applied to one technical area may be worthwhile for a manager in a different technical field. 

Individual sections can be quickly browsed. Indexes will lead quickly to specific subjects or items.

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.

WHAT CHANGES AND WHAT ENDURES - THE CAPABILITIES 

AND UIMTATIONS OF TRAINING AND SELECTION 

ROBERT L HELMREICH (Texas. Urwersity, Austin) Irish Air 
Line Pilots Association and Aer Lingus. Flight Operations 
Symposium. Dublin. Ireland. Oct 19. 20. 1983. Paper. 13 p. refs 
(Ck)ntract NAG2-137) 

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.

Pilots Association. Beyond Pilot Enor - A Symposium of Scientific 
Focus. Washington. DC. Dec. 6-8. 1983. Paper, lip. refs 
(Contract r4AG2-137) 

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 

PAUL J. STICHA (Human Resources Research Organization. 
Alexandria. VA) Human Factors (ISSN 0018-7208). vol. 29, Aug. 
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.

The basis of astronautics-related educational programs' 
evaluation Is a threefold method involving the formulation of 
objectives In measurable terms, the careful planning of instructional 
activities, and the selection of those measures by which the 
attainment of each objective will be determined. A detailed account 
is given of the management of these processes. The data acquired 
through the evaluation process can be used to justify further funding 
or support from the public and political forces that control such 
resource bases. O.C.

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

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.

A PROJECT-ORIENTED INTRODUCTION TO FLIGHT TEST

1988. 12 p. refs

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

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.

p. 328-336. 

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

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 
definition of the proMm. Brainstorming is wklely used to produce 
alternate kieas. Modifk^ations of it are the GonJon Technk|ue and 
Synectics. Morphok>^cal analysis and the ^camination of attributes 
are other akte to creativity. Recognition of a need, or of a new 
use of an oM klea can be helpful. Manag^nent shouM encourage 
attempts at creativity. If tiie will exists, creativity can be devek)ped 
by consckMJS effort instead of being left to chance. DOE

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

and facilities, low^ costs through interface standardization and 
automation and faster access by means of computer-aided 
integration and control processes. By furnishing a basis for 
large-scale space exploitation, the Space Station wilt possess 
industrial production and operational services capal>tlities that may 
be used by the private sector for commercial ventures; it could 
also ultimately support lunar and planetary exploration spacecraft

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

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

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 
manufacturer is presented to demonstrate the methodology. I.E.

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.

RADC has had an intensive program to show the feasibility of 
applying advanced technology to Air Force decision aiding 
situations. Some aspects of the program, such as Satellite 
Autonomy, are directly applicable to space systems. For example, 
RADC has shown the feasibility of decision aids that combine the 
advantages of laser disks and computer generated graphics; 
decision aids that interface object-oriented programs with expert 
systems; decision aids that solve path optimization problems; etc. 
Some of the key techniques that could be used in space 
applications are reviewed. Current applications are reviewed along 
with their advantages and disadvantages, and examples are given 
of possible space applications. The emphasis is to share RADC 
experience in decision aiding techniques. Author

current research compares the effect on comprehension of this 
type of structure with its logical alternative a principle first structure. 
Results indicate that readers spend more time with information 
when it occurs first. Thus, the principle-first structure focuses 
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

these two structures. GRA

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

The evaluation project examined the current level and 
distribution of effort in all the scientific research areas addressed 
by Vision Research-A National Plant: 1983-1987. the National 
Advisory eye Council's most resecent planning and evaluation 
document. It recognized and encouraged activity in important new 
ares that had developed since the Plan was prepared. It identified 
recommendations that were not sufficiently specific or those that 
were prematrue or too narrow in focus and might have benefitted 
from consolidation with other recommendations. A computerized 
system was developed and used to track grant applications wherin 
every grant application, whether funded or not, was coded 
according to the relevance to one of the Plan's recommendations. 
The report produced by this effort was used by the National 
Advisory Eye Council and the staff of the NEI to determine 
long-range and day-to-day management decisions, by scientists in 
the vision research community as a guide to most important needs 
and opportunity as a guide to the most important needs and 
opportunities in the field; and by organizations, foundations, all 
those interested in recent problems and challenges in 
ophthalmology, optometry, and vision science, including current 
activites and plans for continued success in the prevention, 
treatment, and control of blinding disease. 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

This is the final report for a research project which focused on 
artificial intelligence planning systems. The research investigated 
methods for representing, generating, and executing hierarchical 
plans that contain parallel actions. Reasoning about actions is 
critical to many important areas including automatic planning 
systems, expert consultation systems, and real-time control of 
robotic systems. This report describes progress in planning, 
including efficient techniques for generating hierarchical and parallel 
plans in certain domains. This work was performed using SIPE

It is shown that effective performance cannot be assured simply 
by installing expensive, state of the art technology. The studies of 
many applications of computing and information technology have 
included both successful and unsuccessful examples. The clear 
practical lesson from this work is that the successful cases were 
usually those where technical change was accompanied by 
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 
their otsjectives. For them to succeed in that task, it appears that 
management needs to ensure fhat ttwee ^ hurdles are 
successfully cn>ssed. These are: managtnQ the project settir^g 
the right objectives; and changing the organization. Each of these 
hurdles will be outlined in turn, and some proposals on how they

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

Space habitation will create a need for a general purpose repair,

ALL ELECTRONIC PROPULSION - KEY TO FUTURE 

SPACESHIP DESIGN 

WILLIAM C. BROWN (Microwave Power Transmission Systems, 
Weston, MA) AlAA, ASME, SAE, and ASEE, Joint Propulsion 
Conference, 24th, Boston, MA, July 11-13, 1988. 20 p. refs 
(AlAA PAPER 88-3170) 

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

ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTING PLASTICS - NEW MATERIALS 

FROM AEROSPACE RESEARCH 

TEH S. KUAN and RANDY CAMERON (Lockheed Aeronautical 
Systems Co.. Burbank, CA) Lockheed Horizons (ISSN 0459-6773), 
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

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

Part 1 presented an overview of the unified approach to 
manufacturing software. The specific characteristics of the 
apprcoch that alk>w it to realize the goals of reduced cost increased 
reliatMlity and increased flexibility are consklered. Why the blending 
of a components view, distributed languages, generics and formal 
models is knportant wfiy each indtvkiual part of this approach is 
essential, and why each component will typk^ly have each of 
these parts are examirted. An example of a specification for a 
real material handlir^g system is presented using the approach 
and compared with the standard interface specifk»tion given by 
the manufactiffer. Use of the component in a distrttxited 
manufacturing system is then compared with use of the traditional 
specifkation with a more traditional approach to designing the 
system. An overview is also provktod of the underlying mechanisms 
used for inrYplementing distributed manufacturing systems using the

The purpose of this study is to define the requirements of 
commercially motivated microgravlty combustion experiments and 
the optimal way for space station to accommodate these 
requirements. Representatives of commercial organizations, 
universities and government agencies were contacted. Interest in 
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 
space station resource requirements for each type of experiment 
provided. Critical technologies involving the creation of a laboratory 
environment and methods for combining experimental needs into 
one experiment in order to obtain effective use of space station 
are discussed. Diagnostic techniques for monitoring combustion 
process parameters are identified. Author

PICKING WINNERS: PARAMETRIC COST ESTIMATING 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 
qualitative only, significant and homogeneous comparison data 
being scarce. Author

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

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

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

autonomous intelligent systems are discussed, and ongoing work 
at the NASA Ames Research Center is described. It is noted that 
a clear progression of systems can be seen through research 
settings (txjth within and external to NASA) to Space Station 
testt>eds to systems which actually fly on the Space Station. The 
startir^g point for the discussion is a 'truly* autonomous Space 
Station intelligent system, responsible for a major portion of Space 
Station control. Attention is given to research in fiscal 1987, 
including reasoning under uncertainty, machine learning, causa)

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

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

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

POWER provides the capability for a shirt sleeved astronaut to 
perform such work by entering a control pod through air locks at 
both ends of an inflated flexible bellows (access tunnel). The 
exoskeleton of the tunnel is a series of six degrees of freedom 
(Six-DOF) articulated links compressible to 1/6 of their fully 
extended length. The operator can maneuver the control pod to 
almost any location within about 50 m of the base attachment to 
the space station. POWER can be envisioned as a series of hollow 
Six-DOF manipulator segments or arms wherein each arm grasps

Space systems are difficult to maintain on ortTft The difficutty 
arises from the limited ability and availability of the astronaut work 
force in the hazardous space environment. Remote robotic 
manipulation can free the astronaut from the hazardous working 
environment white also increasing the work force. However, remote 
robotic servicing is not without its own set of problems arKi 
limitations, such as communication time delay ar)d unstructured 
worksites. Tests and test equipment are described which are 
designed to increase tf>e understanding of the remote servicir^g 
problems and to allow development of potential solutions. A half 
scale satellite mockup was developed for evaluatirtg arKJ improving 
upon the design of replaceable subsystems, such as t>attehes 
and electronic boxes. A servrcer system, that includes a six degree 
of freedom PUMA 560 robot and interchangeable end effectors 
(tools), was developed to aid in driving out servrcer design 
requirements. The results include the time delay impact on servicing 
timelines and requirements for the servicer system. Author

In response to a number of high-level strategy studies in the 
early 1 980s. expert systems and artificial intelltger>ce (AI/ES) efforts 
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 
ground system automation scenarios are described. Author

This paper describes a fully implemented computational 
architecture that controls tt>e Utah-MIT dextrous hand and other 
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 
whrch more powerful utilities like a multi-processor pseudo-terminal 
emulator, a transparent and fast file server, and a flexible symt>olic 
debugger couW t>e constructed. GRA

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.

This paper reviews recent contributions to the body of published 
research on Geographic Information Systems (GISs). Increased 
usages of GISs have placed a new demand upon the academic 
and research community and despite some lack of formalized 
definitions, categorizations, terminologies, and standard data 
structures, the community has risen to the challenge. Examinations 
of pi^ished GtS research, in particular on GIS data structures, 
reveal a healthy, active research community which Is using a truly 
interdisciptinary approach. Future work will undoubtat>ly lead to a 
clearer understanding of the problems of handlirvg spatial data, 
while producing a new generatk>n of highly sophisticated GISs.

To address the problem of designir^ a distritxited con^xjter 
system, a model is proposed for selecting a proper class of 
processor for each location and allocating data ftles/databases. 
The initial design takes into account the type and volume of 
transactions, in addition to the number of files expected in the 
system. The problem is formulated as a nonlinear goal programming 
problem, and an appropriate solution is obtained using a heuristic 
which is based on a modified pattern search approach. R.R.

This paper describes a newly developed concept within NASA 
for an Applications Information System (AIS). The AIS would provide 
the opportunity to the public and private sectors of shared 
participation in a remote sensing research program directed to a 
particular set of land-use or environmental problems. Towards tNs 
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

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

efficient storage and rapid retrieval of satellite data, an easy-to-use 



user interface, and a variety of output products which, taken

The design of NASA's space station has begun. During the 
design cycle, and after activation of the space station, the 
reoccurring need will exist to access not only designs, but also 
deeper knowledge about the designs, which is only hinted in the 
design definition. Areas benefiting from this knowledge include 
training, fault management, and onboard automation. NASA's 
Artificial Intelligence Office at Johnson Space Center and The 
MITRE Corporation have conceptualized an approach for capture 
and storage of design knowledge. 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 
a reference machine. Author

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 
sampling criteria for a multicollection online search facility. The 
inevitability of resorting to a logarithmic criterion in order to achieve 
a 'spread of representativeness' from the multicollection is 
demonstrated. Author

The criticat factors for successful implementation of an 
information system for the space industry encompass thorough 
analyses of user needs and constraints upon solutions, with an 
emphasis on the use of off-the-shelf products* rather specialized 
development. It is also useful to use a commercial and international 
exchange of information with contractors, and to realize that 
hardware acquisition policies are often driven by software 
requirements. The system architecture should be sufficiently flexible 
to cope with technological changes and changes in users' 
requirements. O.C.

Large space structures will be a key element of the future 
space activities. They will include spacecraft such as the planned 
Space Station and large antenna/reflector structures for 
communications and observations. These targe structures will 



exceed 100 m In length or 30 m in diameter. Concepts for 
construction of these spacecraft on orbit and their materials of 
construction provide some unique research challenges. This paper 
will provide an overview of the research in space construction of 
large structures including erectable and deployable concepts. Also, 
an approach to automated, on-orbit construction will be presented. 
Materials research for space applications focuses on high stiffness, 
low expansion composite materials that provide adequate durability 
in the space environment. The status of these materials research

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

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

A preliminary version of a new computer program has been 
developed for calculating crack propagation in cyclically k>aded 
structures. The new program, titled NASA/FLAGRO. has rtum^oiis 
enhanced features over prevbus programs used for safe life 
analysis on space systems. The essential features of the new 
program consist of modular design, promptfve input usmg a cathode

many new crack case solutk>ns, and incorporation of user-defined 
files for material properties and fatigue spectrums. Also, five options 
made available in the program are to compute: (1) safe life of a 
part with a preexisting crack; (2) critk^t crack size for a specified 
stress level; (3) stress-intensity factor numerical values for making 
comparisons or checks of solutrans; (4) least-squares fit of growth 
rate equations to crack growth rate data; and (5) the conversion

Graphk; processing of finite element modeling (FEM) data has 
provided analysts with a quick and effective way to compreherxj 
the large volumes of analysis information. The complexity and 
completeness of the pre- and postprocessing capabilities provkted 
by FEM graphics systems generally depends on both cost and 
computing resources. These graphk:s systems are availat>le on 
mainframes, turnkey systems, mini-, mka^o-, and personal 
computers. The wkJespread availability and acceptance of these 
systems has increased the awareness of FEM efforts both within 
and outskte of the engir>eering community. However, the element

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.

As CACE (computer-aided control engineering) environments 
become more comprehensive and more powerful, the need for 
keeping track of the models, simulations, analysis results, control 
system designs, and validation study results over the control system 
design cycle becomes more pressing and the lack of 
engineering-database-management support becomes more of an 
impediment to effective controls engineering. In view of this, the 
authors demonstrate that rigorous engineering-database 
management for computer-aided control engineering is both 
important and achievable. A hierarchical organization of CACE 
database elements is presented, and additional mechanisms for 
maintaining database integrity are described. I.E.

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

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 
research endeavor. DOE

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 
programs, and technology. GRA

Improved systems and reduced development costs. The major 
design issues in developing effective robotic systems are discussed 
and the use of ROBOSIM, a NASA developed simulation tool, to 
address these issues is presented. Three representative simulation 
case studies are reviewed: off-line programming of the robotic 
welding development cell for the Space Shuttle Main Engine

Two types of research issues are involved in image management 
systems with ^>ace station applk:ations: image processing research 
and image perception research. The image processing issues are 
the tracfitional ortes of digitizing, coding, compr^^ng. storing, 
analyzing, and displaying, but with a new emphasis on the 
constraints imposed by the human perceiver. Two image coding 
algorithms have been developed that may increase the effknency

of image management systems (IMS). Image perception research 
involves a study of the theoretical and practical aspects of visual 
perception of electronically displayed images. Issues include how 
rapidly a user can search through a library of images, how to 
make this search more efficient, and how to present images in 
terms of resolution and split screens. Other issues include optimal 
interface to an IMS and how to code images in a way that is 
optimal for the human perceiver. A test-bed within which such 
issues can be addressed has been designed. J.P.B.

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

responsible for producing computer documentation for the over 
8000 users of the laboratory's computer network. The -mdoc macro 
package was developed as a software tool to support that effort. 
The -mdoc macro package is used with the NROFF/TROFF 
document preparation system on the UNIX operating system. The 
-mdoc macro package incorporates the standards for computer 
documentation at Los Alamos established by the writers. Use of 
the -mdoc macro package has freed the staff of programming 
format details, allowing writers to concentrate on content of 
documents and word processors to produce documents in a timely 
manner. It is an easy-to-use software tool that adapts to changing

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

Several government and industry initiatives have focused on 
software reusability as one solution to these problems. DARTS 
(trademark), a General Dynamics proprietary symbolic processing 
technology, provides a unique solution to the reuse problem: 
archtyping. Archtyping is the embedding of high order language 
statements in text files. An advanced macroprocessor uses the 
text files to generate new versions of complex software systems. 
A DARTS program, the Software Generation and Configuration

The Data Management System network is a complex and 
important part of manned space platforms. Its efficient operation 
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 
are described. Author

The needs of the information society have thrust into 
prominence those who produce the technical information needed 
to work with computers. As a consequence of the need for technical 
information, those who develop and produce that information are 
called upon to translate the technical capat>ilities of complex 
computer systems into a form that enables readers to perform 
needed tasks. Since the information produced is an integral part 
of the product, it folk>ws that the informatkm devek>pers must 
work as an integral part of the ^oduct-devek>pment team, not as 
post-facto wordsrroths who clean up the writing done by product

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. 
psychoanalytte, and psycholinguistte) in order to reveal the genuine 
individual and collects stakes. Fu^re trends, such as the working 
of the Commissksn of the European Communities with Its nine 
offkHal languages are discussed, and some predk:tk>ns are put 
forward on the Knguistk: state of the worid at the beginning of the 
21 St century. Author

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

The relationship between new technology and space missions, 
and the objectives of the Civil Space Technology Initiative (CSTI) 
are studied. The CSTI is concerned with technologies for safe 
and efficient access to space, earth-orbiting operations, and future 
science missions. The initiative focuses on research in the areas 
of propulsion, vehicles, information systems, large space structures 
and their control, power, and automation and robotics. 
Consideration is given to the development of high-pertormance 
engines for next-generation vehicles, booster technology for hybrid 
and pressure-fed propulsion systems, and a space OTV based on 
the aerobrake concept. Research involved with the application of 
automation and robotics to earth-orbiting operations are discussed. 



The control of flexible structure flight experiment, the use of nuclear 
systems for space propulsion, and the development of sensor 
devices and high-rate, high-capacity data systems are examined.

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

vehicle that will also be able to sustain endoatmospheric hypersonic 
cruise for passenger-carrying and reconnaissance missions. The 
testing of the integration of numerous state-of-the-art technologies 
involved in NASP has generated the further requirement for the 
creation of the X-30 test vehicle. Attention is presently given to 
the programmatic consequentiality of the development of an

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 
coatir>gs, which are amorphous. O.C.

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 
minor surgery work station, intravenous fluid generation 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 
used in space. I.S.

a view to the establishment of a lunar base around the turn of 
the century. Attention is presently given to major aspects of such 
an undertaking that directly bear on the comparative risks of a

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.

JOHN S. BURKS (NASA. Washington. DC) Vertiflite (ISSN 
0042-4455). vol. 34, May-June 1988, p. 12-17. 

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.

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

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

NASA'S PATHFINDER PLOTS FUTURE US SPACE ACTIVITIES 

ANDREW WILSON Interavia (ISSN 0020-5168), vol. 43, June 
1988, p. 591-593. 

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.

Issues pertaining to the stellar system, interstellar matter, and 
dynamics and evolution are reviewed. Included in the discussion 
of the positions and motions of stars are astronomical coordinate 
systems, temporal changes of the star coordinates, and space 
velocities and solar motion. The structure and kinematics of the 
stellar system are discussed as welt as interstellar phenomena 
and the physics of interstellar matter. The dynamics of the Galaxy 
is discussed with attention given to stellar dynamics, the gravitation 
theory of the spiral structure, and the dynamics of the interstellar 
gas. K.K.

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.

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

The new U.S. space policy has as its goal the expansion of 
human activity and presence beyond low-earth orbit and into the 
solar system. This paper addresses the approach and initial steps 
that have been taken toward this goal. Studies being undertaken 
to identify the requirements to achieve the goal are addressed, 
and the main themes involved in the exploration of space are 
described. Exploration strategies and scenarios involving human 
expeditions, scientific outposts in space, and evolutionary 
expansion into space are examined. A human space exploration 
roadmap is shown. C.D.

The applications to medicine of various results from space 
exploration are examined. Improvements have been made in the 
management of cardiovascular disease, in particular the use of 
the ultrasonic scanner to image arteries in three dimensions, the 
use of excimer lasers to disrupt arterial plaques in coronary blood 
vessels, and the use of advanced electrodes for cardiac monitoring. 
A bone stiffness analyzer has helped to diagnose osteoporosis 
and aid in its treatment. An automated light microscope system is 
used for chromosome analysis, and an X-ray image intensifier 
called Lixiscope is used in emergency medical care. An advanced 
portable defibrillator has been developed for the heart, and an 
insulin delivery system has been derived from space 
microminiaturization techniques. q q

The design of the Space Station is examined, focusing on 
plans for the living quarters. The process for building the station 
in space is outlined and the construction of a mockup of the 
habitation module are considered. Problems in designing the living 
quarters include accounting for the size range of astronauts, 
providing privacy, noise reduction, creating an area suitable for 
exercise, and allowing enough storage space. Plans for maintaining 
a sterile laboratory and providing equipment for personal hygiene 
are presented. The ability to repair all of the Space Station 
equipment in place and plans for dealing with emergency situations 
are discussed. R.B.

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 
what the authors refer to as Knowledge-Based languages (e.g., 
OPS5). GRA

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

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

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 
identified for technology transfer. These are tt>e Information

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

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

The Marshall Space Flight Center marks its 25th aniversary 
with a record of notable achievements. These accomplishments 
are the essence of the Marshall Center's history. Behind the scenes 
of the space launches and missions, however, lies the story of 
challenges faced and problems solved. The highlights of that story 
are presented. The story is organized not as a straight chronology 
but as three parallel reviews of the major assignments: propulsion 
systems and launch vehicles, space science research and 
technology, and manned space systems. The general goals were 
to reach space, to know and understand the space environment, 
and to inhabit and utilize space for the benefit of mankind. Also 
included is a chronology of major events, presented as a fold-out 
chart for ready reference. Author

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

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

which the U.S. government could act to encourage commercial 
MPS programs (a NASA policy goal) are considered, including 
elimination of tax and import/export barriers, construction and 
maintenance of a space infrastructure (the Space Station) with 
some support from user fees, opportunity for proof-of-concept 
experiments on MPS technologies, and clear and fair regulation 
of space-laboratory management questions. T.K.

COST ESTIMATOR'S REFERENCE MANUAL 

RODNEY D. STEWART (Mobile Data Services, Huntsville, AL) and 
RICHARD M. WYSKIDA (Alabama, University, Huntsville, AL) New 
York, Wiley-lnterscience, 1987, 643 p. refs 

This manual offers proven techniques for cost estimating in a 
format that makes it useful to both novices and experts for a 
variety of purposes. It describes how to develop a credible and 
accurate cost estimate, where to get supporting information and 
data, what tools and techniques are available, and whom to contact 
about becoming certified, obtaining publications and information, 
and gaining education and training in the profession. In-depth 
discussions of estimating techniques are presented, including cost 
allocation, discounted cash flow analysis, learning curves, 
parametric estimating, risk analysis, and the use of microcomputers 
in cost estimating. Estimating in specialized situations, such as 
high-technology projects, construction, and government 
procurements and software development, is addressed. The 
emergence of cost estimating as an established profession and 
the use of aritificial intelligence in cost estimating are examined.

The requirements for third generation space-transportation 
systems are discussed. It is noted that the cost-damping effect 
hoped for in the Hermes program will be outweighed t>y factors 
such as expensive new technology. It is recommended that specific 
payload costs for space transportation should amount to at most 
20 percent of the costs for the same mission with Ariane arKt 
Hermes, and that development costs be kept to a minimum. Ottier 
guidelines include comparable safety and reliability to that of airlines

By 1990. all rDetropolitan areas in the U.S. and rural areas 
close to major cities or towns are expected to have cellular 
telephone service; 22 Canadian cities also feature cellular senrtce. 
To supply mobile telecommunication services to sparsely-populated 
rural areas, a mobile satellite sen^ice (MSS) is now being developed. 
In this paper the projected possibilities of the MSS system are 
discussed, including a possitnlity that a piggyback-MSS payk>ad 
be added to the GSTAR-4 satellite which is scheduled for a launch 
in 1 988 or 1 989; one in which some of the hardware from aborted 
direct-broadcast satellites would be used; and the possibility of 
building a new MSS satellite with large servrcing capacity. Canada 
is planning to launch its own mobile satellite. MSAT, in the early 
1990s. The MSS is expected to be 'generic', serving not only 
people on land but maritime and aeronautk:al users as well. It will 
also offer major benefits to truck and automobile drivers, making 
it possible for them to conduct business or to call for assistar>ce 
from locations beyond the range of cellular systems. I.S.

Two private firms must close deals in the first half of 1988 
with their respective investors, and begin constructing hardware 
shortly thereafter, if space operations of their pressurized space 
modules are to begin on schedule in the early 1990s. One of the 
two firms will construct an industrial Space Facility, at an estimated 
cost of $700 million; the other will produce 'Spacehab', a 
pressurized module small enough to fly in the Space Shuttle Cargo 
Bay. The projected cost of building and testing the first two 
Spacehab modules and associated ground facilities is $65-70

An economic model for vendor selection is presented. There 
are two decision factors to be considered in the model: price and 
material quality. In developing the model, material quality is 
expressed in terms of monetary units, then combined with price 
to establish a cost-effective decision criterion for vendor selection. 
In addition, the interaction between material quality and the

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

The authors extend eariier technology assessment methods in 
two ways. First, multiple attributes of product quality and firm's 
innovative strength In the respective technologies are viewed in 
aggregate, so as to balance the R&D portfolio and to maximize 
the expected returns on the discretionary funds. Second, rational 
competitor strategies are obtained through simulation based on 
relative technological capabilities and R&D budgets. Both discrete 
project portfolios and continuous capabilities and effort levels can 
be considered. These extensions are illustrated with an example 
drawn from defense contracting. I.E.

Federal Laboratories, especially those in rural settings, have 
the opportunity to participate in local economic development 
through spin off businesses based on laboratory technologies. Quite 
often, it is a laboratory employee who is one of the principals in 
the spin off business. Transferring technology to an employee 
can add a degree of complexity that is not normally faced in a 
transfer to an external requestor. Procedures followed at the Idaho 
National Engineering Laboratory by one of the prime contractors

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 
discussed. Author

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

The new developments in cost engineering revolve around the

As international computer/communk>ations networtcs proliferate, 
the issue of limits to information trar^er t>ecomes more critical. 
Individual businesses and even entire industries depend upon the 
at)ility to transfer information on a gk»bal t>asis in a timely and 
cost-effective basis. Additionally, international cooperation in 



science and technology involves greater international collaboration 
and joint efforts. Barriers that threaten this capability ultimately 
reduce the growth of markets and limit innovation. For this reason, 
efforts are underway in t)ilateral and multinational negotiations to 
reduce barriers and establish consensus gukjelines in areas ranging 
from privacy to trade. Some of the spedfk; limitations to information 
transfer, including privacy, trade restrictions, national security, and 
telecommunk^ations regulations are focused on. It also highligtits

Program (EAP) demonstrator are presented In extensive drawings 
and diagrams and briefly characterized. The USM links the basic 
aircraft systems (fuel, engine, environmental control, secondary 
power, hydraulics, etc.) to the avionics or mission bus. It comprises 
a dedicated MIL-STD-1553B bus, distributed data-acquisition units 
with local processing and control, an integrated power control, 
and interfaces with the multifunction displays of the digital cockpit. 
The overall operation of the USM is outlined; and the system 
implementation and packaging are discussed. Particular attention 
is given to the use of relays (rather than solid-state devices) for 
discrete power switching. When compared to conventional utilities 
control systems, the USM is shown to provide weight and 
operating-cost savings of over 50 percent and an eightfold 
improvement in availability. T.K.

The major activity undertaken in the NASA Energy Efficient 
Engine Program has been completed. This paper reports on the 
progress made toward achieving the program goal of developing 
advanced technology to significantly reduce fuel consumption and 



operating costs of future subsonic transport-type propulsion 
systems. An additional goal was that the advanced concepts be 
compatible with future environmental regulations. Along with the 
results obtained, a brief overview of the design details of both the 
General Electric and Pratt and Whitney energy efficient engines 
and the overall program scope are presented. Overall, this program 
has been highly successful; the technology developed during its 
course is, and will continue to be, effectively employed in both 
current and future advance transport aircraft engine designs.

The U.S. Army Aviation Systems Command has been 
implementing a Flight Safety Parts Program in conjunction with all 
Army prime helicopter manufacturers during this past year. This 
program is designed to provide for improved life cycle management 
of aircraft parts whose integrity is essential to flight safety. As 
such, a new approach to enhance quality assurance of the parts 
has been implemented to cover all phases including manufacturing, 
transportation, storage, maintenance, operational usage, and 
overhaul /repair. In addition, the overall safety and functional 
relibility is being enhanced by direct surveillance analyses and 
testing of new/ used parts on a recurring basis. The purpose of 
this paper is to define the overall program and to describe the 
specific details/status of its implementation. Author

This paper introduces the idea of computer assistance in ATC 
by describing a simple advisory aid which uses control of aircraft 
speed to produce an orderly flow of aircraft arriving in the terminal 
area. This results in delays being absorbed more efficiently. An 
indication is given of the potential use of computer prediction of 
aircraft trajectories to help controllers handle the arrivals 
management task in a scenario with increasing traffic flows.

Logistics-related features are the major contributors to operation 
costs in the NASA Space Station as a whole and in its propulsion 
system specifically; attention has accordingly been given to the 
reduction of the numt>er and weights of such factors, while 
improving the effectiveness of each Space Shuttle logistic flight 
to the Space Station in orbit. An economically attractive course 
involves the use of excess and waste fluids ger>erated aboard 
both the Shuttle and the Station in a combined 02/H2 water 
electrolysis and resistojet propulsion system. These fluids can be 
used to fly an optimized, variable-altitude profile that increases

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

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

Micro PAVER is a microcomputer version of the PAVER 
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, 
streets, parking lots, and airfield pavements. GRA

As the shock of the Space Shuttle Challenger accident began 
to subside, NASA initiated a wide range of actions designed to 
ensure greater safety in various aspects of the Shuttle system 
and an improved focus on safety throughout the National Space 
Transportation System (NSTS) Program. Certain specific features 
of the NASA safety process are examined: the Critical Items List 
(CIL) and the NASA review of the Shuttle primary and backup 
units whose failure might result in the loss of life, the Shuttle 
vehicle, or the mission; the failure modes and effects analyses 
(FMEA); and the hazard analysis and their review. The conception 
of modern risk management, including the essential element of 
objective risk assessment is described and it is contrasted with 
NASA's safety process in general terms. The discussion, findings. 



and recommendations regarding particular aspects of the NASA 
STS safety assurance process are reported. The 1 1 subsections 
each deal with a different aspect of the process. The main lessons 
learned by SCRHAAC in the course of the audit are summarized.

Vehicle payload benefits of scavengfftg hydrogen and oxygen 
propellants are addressed. The approach used is to select a veNde 
and a mission and then select a scavenging system for detailed 
weight analysis. The Shuttle 2 vehicle on a Space Station 
rendezvous mission was chosen for study. The prtH)ellant 
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 
cryogenic auxiliary propulsion system. The fraction of auxiliary 
propulsion propellent which may be scavenged for propid^ 
purposes is estimated to be 45.1 percent The auxiliary propidsion 
sirt)^fstem *y mass. induciKng the proposed scavenging system, 
an additional 20 percent for secondary structure, an additional 5 
percent for electrical service, a 10 percent wei^ growth ma[S^

to be 6331 kg. TWs study shows that the fractton of the on-orbrt

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

scheduling is first discussed, then the intended domain for 
MAESTRO is described along with its design and current 
capabilities. A description of planned enhancements and revisions 
to the systems is also presented. Author

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

Flight test risk will be minimized through the reduction of differences 
between flight and ground test environments; the latter will involve 
the interfacing of real-time flight simulation with the actual aircraft 
through a simulation-interface device. The test process and the

The CARMS approach to managing requirements can be used 
for flight testing as well as the rest of an aircraft's life cycle. 
CARMS offers traceability of design trade-offs and decisions, 
current project status, and component interactions. CARMS can 
be used to catch problem areas before the flight testing begins 
and before many potentially costly mistakes are made on the 
production fleet. K.K.

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.

APPLICATION OF RISK ASSESSMENT TECHNIQUES IN 

OPTIMIZING FUTURE SPACE MISSIONS

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

MTBF SPECIFICATION IN A MULTIPLE USE ENVIRONMENT

26-28, 1988, Proceedings. New York, Institute of Electrical and 
Electronics Engineers, Inc., 1988, p. 132-135. 

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.

the early stages of a development program. The method is equally 
applicable to both miltary and commercial contracts. The method 
utilizes fragmentary existing data supplemented by flexible 
estimating factors to expediously derive data in spreadsheet format,

A priori knowledge of failure modes of a system is an 
indispensable information for design of robust decentralized 
hierarchical control schemes. In particular inclusion of system fauKs 
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 
consciousness* can be created within the controller which allows 
the controller to exercise selective actions for each given discrete 
state. This concept has been implemented to control the utility 
systems of the Space Station Laboratory Simulator. Author

program. In programs that preceded the Shuttle Program the 
emphasis was on meeting tf>e risks and technk^l challenges of 
space with safety, quality, reliability, and success. At United 
Technok>gies Aerospace Operations. Inc. (UTAO), the battle has 
devetoped akmg four primary fronts. These fronts include programs 
to nwtivate arxJ reward people, devetopment and construction of 
optimized processes and facilities, implementation of specrftoally 
tailored management systems, and the applteation of appropriate 
measurement arxl control systen^. Each of these initiatives is 
described. However, to put this quality and productivity program 
in perspective, UTAO and its role in the Shuttle Program are 
descril>ed first B.G,

SPACE STATION CAREENS PAST ALL OBSTACLES 

JERRY GREY Aerospace America (ISSN 0740-722X). vol. 25. 
Sept 1987. p. 24-28. 

The diffrculties involved in planning the development of the 
Space Station, in particular federal polk:ies and financing, are 
described. Concerns about the design and operating characteristics 
of the Space Station and the support of the Station are examined. 
The roles of foreign participants (ESA, Japan, Canada) and the 
U.S. DOD in the devetopment and use of the Space Station are 
discussed. It is strongly emphasized that a firm national commitment 
to a unified Space Station poHcy is needed, and that a Space 
Station is the key element in virtually every scenario that has 
been proposed for the U.S. future in space. IF-

characteristics and functions of the proposed NASA earth-orbiting 
Space Station are described. The bilateral agreements between 
the U.S. and Canada, Japan, and ESA for the proposed design 
and development of the Space Station, in particular the U.S.-ESA 
Memorandum of Understanding, are discussed. The need for 
government-to-government agreements to handle issues such as 
jurisdiction, control, and registration of the Space Station; 
proprietary rights; and technology transfer is studied. Consideration 
is given to the relevance of domestic law and general international 
regulations; telecommunication issues; the transportation of

The development of laws governing Space Station activities is 
studied. The agreement between NASA and Japan regarding the 
design and development of the Japanese Experimental Module is 
examined. Current and proposed laws applicable to the registration, 
jurisdiction, and control of the Space Station, and the nature and 
purposes of specific space activities are discussed. It is suggested 
that disciplinary regulations and safety standards be uniform for 
all countries participating in the Space Station and experiments, 
manufacturing, research, and obsen^ations be conducted jointly or 
separately. Consideration is given to proprietary rights, liability for 
damages, tort laws, and the presen/ation of the space

The applicability of international agreements and United Nations 
space treaties to space stations operated cooperatively by more 
than one nation is examined, reviewing several recent proposals 
and opinions. Topics addressed include the interpretation of Article 
XII of the Space Treaty of 1967; the composition, duties, and 
rights of a space station management board; the Liability 
Convention of 1 972; the Convention on Registration of Objects of 
1976; and the legal questions posed by multicomponent space

NATIONAL JURISDICTION ON THE SPACE STATION 

RICHARD DALBELLO (U.S. Congress, Office of Technology

June 12, 13, 1986, Reports. Bonn, Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer 
Luft- und Raumfahrt. 1986, p. 119-139. refs 

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.

that they do littte to incentivize a contractor to improve safety and 
suggests ttiat in areas as critical as manned space fli^ safety, 
NASA adopt a Safety En^neering Incentive Program. This program 
would be similar to ttie existing Value En^neering program except 
that finartcial incentives would be paid for irT^)raving safety. The

The current space scene internationally can be characterized 
in terms of a number of patterns or trends. It is the totality of 
these etements. and the interactions among them, that can be 
described as the international political economy of space. White 
competition for political leadership and economic payoffs will 
continue to be a strong influerKe on the space activities of major 
countries, that competition will increasingly take ptece within a 
framework of multilateral structures ar>d cooperative undertakings. 
In ad(^tion, the continued arKl even increasing primacy of military 
space activities in most countries will present a constreunt on tt>e 
govemment resources availabte for civilian space programs.

associate members are described. Associate membership is offered 
in two forms, as a preliminary step prior to full membership or as 
a form of cooperation; the implementation of the concept of

Legal arguments and policies concerned with the establishment 
of safety zones (keep-out zones) around space objects are studied. 
The technical concept of keep-out zones is described. International 
laws and treaties which deal with safety zones in areas on earth 
are examined, and examples are provided. Soviet and U.S. views 
on the implementation of keep-out zones are discussed. Problems 
with implementing these zones, such as safety, security, and traffic 
management, are considered. It is argued that there are already 
international (land) laws that relate to safety zones and that based 
on these laws the implemenation of space keep-out zones would 
be legally posssible if it were necessary. I.F.

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

ESA Bulletin (ISSN 0376-4265). no. 53, Feb. 1988, p. 49, 50. 

An important consequence of the Space Shuttle Challenger 
accident was the change in U.S. government policy concerning 
nongovernmental and commercial launchings. Customers are 
increasingly interested rK>t only in taur>ch servk)es* availat>iHty, but 
also the flexibility offered in terms of launch date changes, 
relaunches, overall price, and reliabiiity. This situation is rerxlered 
more complex by the very high insurance premiums arKl only-partial 
insurance coverage currently available. Attentfon is given to the 
application of a 'best efforts' pfutosophy to contractual provisions 
in the event of laurKh date chartges. O.C.

INSURANCE OF SPACE RISKS

p. 84-87. 

An evaluation is made of the lengths to which tfie insurance 
market is prepared to go in order to insure the tnf>erent risks of 
spacecraft missions; coverage is as a rule extended to commercial 
aircraft, and insurance protection remains unobtainat)le for manned 
spacecraft scientific experiments and for research satellites, since 
their degree of risk is consklered incalculat>le. Past experience 
has led to a massive increase in premiums, especially for launch 
insurance; a premium of up to 25 percent of the insured sum 
must currently be assumed. O.C.

air transport polk»es, beginning, if need t)e, on a plurilateral or 
regwnal level. In effect, ttie EEC may set an example by 
nationalizing and privatizing the airtine industry. Regarding aviatkxi

Both policies make strong statements about what the govemment 
is willing to do in order to support and attract private sector 
investrT>ent in space businesses. While the govemment has initiated 
several actions which encourage private sector investment in 
space, a comparison of the government's policies with the actwns

The author examines several recent U.S. legal and policy 
developments that reflect a growing interest of Congress and the 
Executive Branch (and even the Supreme Court) as to space 
commercialization matters. These developments evidence a 
determination by Congress and the President to overhaul previous 
policy with respect to access to space. Even so, the author believes 
a greater bi-partisan effort is required to shape a U.S. civilian 
space policy and legal environment conducive to long-term space 
commercialization investment decisions. Author

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 
transatmospheric vehicle's development. O.C.

115-120. 

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

of commercial space activities. The U.S. has established regulations 
of launch activities, while the member states of ESA have created 
specific regulations for Ariane launches. Up to rww. there has 
been no need for specific national legislation concemirig

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 
for autonomous investing, and public capital good accounting and

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.

An attempt is made to formulate an alternative approach to 
the traditional insistence of planners on the achievement and 
preservation of the U.S.'s preeminence in space exploration and 
commercialization. The alternative policy suggested involves 
intensive collaboration with such major participants in space

countries over the space above their nations, and the relationship 
between sensed states and states with remote sensing capabilities 
are considered. Other issues include whether or not individuals 
should have the right to receive any broadcast information they 
wish to receive, the problem of broadcasting propaganda, and the

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.

The ^owth of Japanese patent^ is ptfticuMy apparent with 
the Japanese invented U.S. pat^its ^K:re88ing from approx. 8.8 
percent in 1975 to 16.5 percent of U.S. patents in 1984. In scientific 
papers the Japanese increased from approx. 5.1 percent in 1973 
to 7.3 percent in 1982. The t)road areas of emphasis of the tvvo 
countries are also shown to t)e in strong contrast In science the 
Japanese show a pevticiteiy emphasis in chemistry and physics 
with an average emphasis in bioscienoe. In contrast the U.S. shows 
emphasis in earth and space science, and notable emphasis m 
the t>tome(fical fields of cfovcal medicine and biomedfcal research. 
Field by field Japanese and U.S. science activity correlate at 0.90. 
almost total opposrtes. In technology also there are sharp contrast. 
with Japar)ese activity notably high in various areas related to 
electronics, automotive, photography, scientific instrumentation and 
office computir>g. These areas of \vigjh Japanese activity are also 
areas in which they have increased their activity over the last tan 
years: in fact, the Japanese have increased then- share in 40 of 
the 42 different product fields. GRA

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 
tn patented techrK}logy appears to be strong, growing and based 
on high quality. QRA

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

complete set of legal principles has yet been agreed upon, certain 
scientific and techntoal criteria for the safe design and use of 
NPS have been accepted. In this respect, it should t>e noted tiiat

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 
distribution of DoD research funding to universities and the potential 
for geographic expansion. GRA

and other key agencies submit biennial reports to Congress and 
EPA. NASA is to report on the state of our knowledge of the 
upper atmosphere, particularly the stratosphere. This is the sixth 
ozone assessment report submitted to Congress and the concerned 
regulatory agencies. Part 1 contains an outline of the NASA Upper 
Atmosphere Research Program and summaries of the research 
efforts supported during the last two years. An assessment is 
presented of the state of knowledge as of March 15, 1988 when 
the Ozone Trends Panel, organized by NASA and co-sponsored 
by the Worid Meteorological Organization, NCAA, FAA and the 
United Nations Environment Program released an executive 
summary of its findings from a critical in-depth study involving 
over 100 scientists from 12 countries. Chapter summaries of the
