This presentation provides an overview of the Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate and SBIRSTTR topics for ARMD's programs and project.
This presentation presents a software architecture model that contains three perspectives: User, Business, and System. This model is used to evaluate the evolution of the cFS from a NASA/Goddard in-house product line to an open source open architecture used by a world wide community.

...This paper verviews the system design and the results of the system integration and test activities, including the entry, descent and landing subsystem elements. System test experiences including science instruments, the microrover, Sojourner, and software are discussed.
In this paper, we report some models developed for analyzing parachute/balloon-assisted deployment of sensor packages within the Mars Aerobot Validation Program (MABVAP).
Pathfinder is the first in a series of Mars exploration projects that are fundamental elements of the Discovery Program missions funded by the (NASA).
This paper describes the system architecture, design and implementation approach for the Mars Pathfinder spacecraft scheduled to land on the surface of Mars on July 4, 1997. Mars Pathfinder is one of the new series of small, challenging missions doing significant science/engineering on a fast schedule and cost capped budget.
This work proposes a perspective towards establishing a framework for uncertainty quantification of autonomous system tracking and health monitoring. The approach leverages the use of a predictive process structure, which maps uncertainty sources and their interaction according to the quantity of interest and the goal of the predictive estimation. It is systematic and uses basic elements that are system agnostic, and therefore needs to be tailored according to the specificity of the application. This work is motivated by the interest in low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicle operations, where awareness of vehicle and airspace state becomes more relevant as the density of autonomous operations grows rapidly. Predicted scenarios in the area of small vehicle operations and urban air mobility have no precedent, and holistic frameworks to perform prognostics and health management (PHM) at the system- and airspace-level are missing formal approaches to account for uncertainty. At the end of the paper, two case studies demonstrate implementation framework of trajectory tracking and health diagnosis for a small unmanned aerial vehicle. This work has been accepted for publication at the International Journal of Prognostics and Health Management Jan 2021. Minor edits have been incorporated to this original submission to incorporate complete overview and software integration.
