Payload Operations and Telescience on ISS

The objective of this paper is to provide future International Space Station (ISS) scientists and/or engineers with an overview of the ISS payload operations and integration process. This process begins with the payload being manifested on the ISS and continued through the integration and operations process. Emphasis is placed on the interfaces and tools that the payload will utilize when going through the process. For each of the Data Sets, the Payload Operations and Integration Center (POIC) provides a Data Set Manager to work with the PD's.
