Reference architecture for space data systems

Architectures for terrestrial data systems that are built and managed by a single organization are inherently complex. In order to understand any large-scale system architecture, and to judge its applicability for its nominal task, a description of the system must be produced that exposes a number of distinct viewpoints. Within the CCSDS Architecture Working Group we have adapted the Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing to describe large, multi-national, space data systems.

Reference architecture for space data systems

This paper introduces the Reference Architecture for Space Data Systems (RASDS)that is being developed by CCSDS. RASDS uses five views to describe architectures of space data systems. These views are derived from the viewpoints of the Reference Model of Open Distributed Processing (RM-ODP), but they are slightly modified from the RM-ODP viewpoints so that they can better represent the concerns of space data systems.

Reference architecture for space data systems

This paper introduces the Reference Architecture for Space Data Systems (RASDS) that is being developed by CCSDS and shows how it can be used to reduce the cost of development of space data systems.

Message transfer service for space applications

Spacecraft applications that interact with on-board sensors, effectors, and major components have traditionally used private interfaces which are tightly bound to the interface details of the data links connecting these sub-systems. The latest spacecraft, which often include several powerful processors running real time operating systems, high-speed on-board networks, and intelligent peripherals, can support a more layered networked environment. Use of standard interfaces and networked elements is expected to yield reusable software and hardware components. Within CCSDS Panel 1K we have been developing such on-board interface standards. This paper will present a Message Transfer Service that defines a common API for use within a single spacecraft or among spacecraft flying in a constellation.

Control Architecture for the Deep Space Mission System (DSMS)

As NASA moves int an era of flying more missions at much lower cost and shorter development duration, the Deep Space Mission System (DSMS) has been redesigned to provide services to approximately 50 missions during the next 10 years.

Using HST: From proposal to science

The following subject areas are covered: a short history; uses of network STSCII (general communication, science collaboration, functional activities, internal data management, and external data access); proposal/observation handling; DMF access; and future uses and requirements.
