Three NASA Application Domains for Integrated Planning, Scheduling, and Execution

Contents

This paper describes three application domains for integrating planning, scheduling and execution at NASA Johnson Space Center. The three domains are: advanced life support systems; traded control of robotic manipulators and free flying space robots. The challenges of each domain will be given and initial progress will be described. For each domain we have applied the same layered control architecture, called 3T, which will also be described in this paper.
