Description
NASA research, over the past 8 years, has developed Model Based Reasoning (MBR) technology to the point where it can now be applied to solve operational problems. GSIM is a tool developed jointly by NASA and LSOC that builds on this research, making MBR technology cost effective and readily available. Using GSIM, high fidelity MBR models can be developed on standard office computers and workstations. Using the intuitive GSIM model development environment, these models can be constructed at the rate of approximately IQx that required for development of lower fidelity math models, such as those used today for launch team training and application software validation. MBR models are not single use investments; but support diverse functions such as design assistance, traditional operations simulation, training, FMEA, real-time system monitoring/diagnosis and data fusion.
This paper presents findings/plans of the GSIM project and discusses long term benefits of wide spread life cycle oriented use of MBR technology at KSC.
