Requirements for the implementation of schedule repair technology in the Experiment Scheduling Program

The following list of requirements specifies the proposed revisions to the Experiment Scheduling Program (ESP2) which deal with schedule repair. These requirements are divided into those which are general in nature, those which relate to measurement and analysis functions of the software, those which relate specifically to conflict resolution, and those relating directly to the user interface. (This list is not a complete list of requirements for the user interface, but only a list of those schedule repair requirements which relate to the interface.) Some of the requirements relate only to uses of the software in real-time operations. Others are clearly for future versions of the software, beyond the upcoming revision. In either case, the fact will be clearly stated.
