Interoperability among Space Station Freedom data systems - A field test of standardsA development status evaluation is presented for NASA efforts toward the achievement of interoperability among Space Station Freedom (SSF) data systems, despite the complexity created by the number and wide distribution of such systems, the intensive international participation, and the use of time-phased development cycles. Four areas have been identified as essential: communications interoperability, data interoperability, and crew and payload interface interoperability. Accelerated efforts are needed to define and refine detailed interface designs before developments by each of the SSF's international partners come to take fundamentally incompatible courses.
