This paper describes specific teaming techniques. Supporting information and data are provided to substantiate the claim that these methods have been and continue to be excellent.
Over the past three years the CloutSat Project, a NASA Earth System Science Pathfinder mission to provide from space the first global survey of cloud profiles and cloud physical properties, has implemented a successful project system engineering approach. Techniques learned through heuristic reasoning of past project events and professional experience were applied along with select methods recently touted to increase effectiveness without compromising effiency.
We discuss the CloudSat Project.
The CloudSat Project has developed a simplified approach for fault tree analysis and probabilistic risk assessment. A system-level fault tree has been constructed to identify credible fault scenarios and failure modes leading up to a potential failure to meet the nominal mission success criteria.
This paper discusses the system engineering techniques used to date, especially the application of heuristic reasoning, in the design, development, and test of the Deep Space One spacecraft.
This paper states the requirements for, describes the overall architecture of, and identifies the future work involved in developing the DS1 Testbed spacecraft simulation.
