Advanced software development workstation project: Engineering scripting language. Graphical editor

Software development is widely considered to be a bottleneck in the development of complex systems, both in terms of development and in terms of maintenance of deployed systems. Cost of software development and maintenance can also be very high. One approach to reducing costs and relieving this bottleneck is increasing the reuse of software designs and software components. A method for achieving such reuse is a software parts composition system. Such a system consists of a language for modeling software parts and their interfaces, a catalog of existing parts, an editor for combining parts, and a code generator that takes a specification and generates code for that application in the target language. The Advanced Software Development Workstation is intended to be an expert system shell designed to provide the capabilities of a software part composition system.

Knowledge base methodology: Methodology for first Engineering Script Language (ESL) knowledge base

The primary goal of reusing software components is that software can be developed faster, cheaper and with higher quality. Though, reuse is not automatic and can not just happen. It has to be carefully engineered. For example a component needs to be easily understandable in order to be reused, and it has also to be malleable enough to fit into different applications. In fact the software development process is deeply affected when reuse is being applied. During component development, a serious effort has to be directed toward making these components as reusable. This implies defining reuse coding style guidelines and applying then to any new component to create as well as to any old component to modify. These guidelines should point out the favorable reuse features and may apply to naming conventions, module size and cohesion, internal documentation, etc. During application development, effort is shifted from writing new code toward finding and eventually modifying existing pieces of code, then assembling them together. We see here that reuse is not free, and therefore has to be carefully managed.

Operationally Efficient Propulsion System Study (OEPSS): OEPSS Video Script

The OEPSS video film, along with the OEPSS Databooks, provides a data base of current launch experience that will be useful for design of future expendable and reusable launch systems. The focus is on the launch processing of propulsion systems. A brief 15-minute overview of the OEPSS study results is found at the beginning of the film. The remainder of the film discusses in more detail: current ground operations at the Kennedy Space Center; typical operations issues and problems; critical operations technologies; and efficiency of booster and space propulsion systems. The impact of system architecture on the launch site and its facility infrastucture is emphasized. Finally, a particularly valuable analytical tool, developed during the OEPSS study, that will provide for the "first time" a quantitative measure of operations efficiency for a propulsion system is described.
