Methods and tools for aerospace operations modeling and simulation: Toolkit for Enabling Adaptive Modeling and Simulation (TEAMS)

Published: 08 December 2002 Publication History

Abstract

This paper describes the architecture of a Toolkit for Enabling Adaptive Modeling and Simulation (TEAMS). TEAMS addresses key technical problems associated with Space Transportation System operations process modeling and analysis. TEAMS facilitates collaborative and distributed spaceport operations analysis. Functions supported by TEAMS include (i) knowledge management, (ii) operations modeling, and (iii) operations analysis. Key innovations include (i) a process-centered approach that maximizes re-use of domain knowledge for rapid operations analysis model development, (ii) open-architecture, distributed plug and play architecture that allows for mass customization and rapid deployment of TEAMS, and (iii) novel, simulation-based optimization mechanisms. A TEAMS prototype has been developed and demonstrated at Kennedy Space Center.
