Information architecture for a planetary 'exploration web'

'Web services' is a common way of deploying distributed applications whose software components and data sources may be in different locations, formats, languages, etc. Although such collaboration is not utilized significantly in planetary exploration, we believe there is significant benefit in developing an architecture in which missions could leverage each others capabilities. We believe that an incremental deployment of such an architecture could significantly contribute to the evolution of increasingly capable, efficient, and even autonomous remote exploration.

Leveraging middleware-based infrastructure for remote exploration

This paper describes middleware systems developed at JPL, shows how leveraging middleware implementation strategies can facilitate building a mission operations system for managing multiple interacting missions on Mars, and proposes an approach to implementing demonstrations as part of a roadmap providing progressively more intelligent remote exploration.
