ONIX: An open-source depletion code

Open Source software enables innovative, community-based software development. ONIX brings this concept to the field of depletion calculations. It is an open-source depletion software to be used for nuclear reactor simulations, for fissile material production analysis as well as for nuclear arms control applications. ONIX provides a module to solve the depletion equation using a Chebyshev Rational Approximation Method. For the generation of one-group cross sections, it includes a coupling interface for the open-source neutron transport code, OpenMC, as well as a module to read pre-computed values in a stand-alone mode. ONIX has special features to optimize nuclear data libraries, to update isomeric branching ratio during burnup, and to support automation of simulations for nuclear archaeology. In conclusion, ONIX has been validated against results from numerical and experimental benchmarks, and its results agree with other methods within expected error ranges.

Deep space communications technology thrusts

The paper discusses the technology thrusts that are currently being developed for deep space missions as well as the expected dividends of these thrusts during the 1990's and beyond. Particular attention is given to Ka-band (32 GHz) development, channel coding, source coding, and optical communications. The ongoing development described here attempts to meet the telecommunications demands of future missions by stressing cooperative developments between ground networks and flight projects in order to optimize NASA's overall investment in solar system investment.

Orbital flight simulation utility software unit specifications, revision 1

The HP PASCAL source code defines the specifications for a Utility Software Unit (USU) designed to support orbital flight simulators such as MANHANDLE and GREAS (General Research and Engineering Analysis Simulator). Besides providing basic input/output, mathematical, matrix, quaternion, and statistical routines for such simulators, one of the primary functions of the USU is to isolate all system-dependent codes in one well-defined compartment, thereby facilitating transportation of the simulations from one computer to another. Directives are given for the PASCAL compilers of the HP-9000 Series 200 Pascal 3.0 and the HP-9000 Series 500 HP-UX 5.0 operating systems that produce a single file of relocatable code from four separate files of source code. Three of the source code files are common to both operating systems. The fourth source code file (utilspif.I) contains all of the system-dependent PASCAL code for the USU. A fifth file of source code written in C is required to interface utilspif.I with the HP-UX I/O package. The Pascal 3.0 compiler directives and the driver source code for a unit rest program and counterparts for the HP-UX 5.0 operating system are given. The major portion of the unit test program source code is common to both operating systems. Unit test results from the Pascal 3.0 operating system and results from the HP-UX operating system are given.

Coded aperture imaging of X-ray and gamma-ray sources

Coded aperture telescopes employing arrays of a small number of discrete detector elements for hard X-rays or gamma-rays are discussed. Aperture patterns are described that permit a unique reconstruction of the image with high contrast, and that exhibit a specific rotational antisymmetry to suppress systematic distortions. It is shown that high flux sensitivity can be achieved in this fashion as well as good angular resolution.

Applying Standard Interfaces to a Process-Control Language

A method of applying open-operating-system standard interfaces to the NASA User Interface Language (UIL) has been devised. UIL is a computing language that can be used in monitoring and controlling automated processes: for example, the Timeliner computer program, written in UIL, is a general-purpose software system for monitoring and controlling sequences of automated tasks in a target system. In providing the major elements of connectivity between UIL and the target system, the present method offers advantages over the prior method. Most notably, unlike in the prior method, the software description of the target system can be made independent of the applicable compiler software and need not be linked to the applicable executable compiler image. Also unlike in the prior method, it is not necessary to recompile the source code and relink the source code to a new executable compiler image. Abstraction of the description of the target system to a data file can be defined easily, with intuitive syntax, and knowledge of the source-code language is not needed for the definition.

Automated Concurrent Blackboard System Generation in C++

In his 1992 Ph.D. thesis, "Design and Analysis Techniques for Concurrent Blackboard Systems", John McManus defined several performance metrics for concurrent blackboard systems and developed a suite of tools for creating and analyzing such systems. These tools allow a user to analyze a concurrent blackboard system design and predict the performance of the system before any code is written. The design can be modified until simulated performance is satisfactory. Then, the code generator can be invoked to generate automatically all of the code required for the concurrent blackboard system except for the code implementing the functionality of each knowledge source. We have completed the port of the source code generator and a simulator for a concurrent blackboard system. The source code generator generates the necessary C++ source code to implement the concurrent blackboard system using Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) running on a heterogeneous network of UNIX(trademark) workstations. The concurrent blackboard simulator uses the blackboard specification file to predict the performance of the concurrent blackboard design. The only part of the source code for the concurrent blackboard system that the user must supply is the code implementing the functionality of the knowledge sources.
