Automated platform management system schedulingThe Platform Management System (PMS) has been established to coordinate the operation of platform systems and payloads. Since platforms are to be out of contact with the ground more than the manned base, PMS functions are required to be more autonomous than those of the manned base. Automated replanning and rescheduling will be required to effectively and efficiently meet mission goals. In a FY88 study, we developed a phased approach to automated PMS scheduling based upon use of the same scheduling engine in both ground and space components. In the past year, we implemented a baseline, first phase, PMS scheduler prototype. Presently we are integrating this scheduler into two NASA Goddard Space Flight Center testbeds, as the ground scheduler in the Scheduling Concepts, Architectures, and Networks Testbed and as the onboard scheduler in the PMS Testbed. We will investigate rescheduling issues, evaluated operational performance and enhance the prototype to demonstrate our evolutionary approach to automated PMS scheduling.
