[edit] Abstract

This paper describes the development of an intelligent, generic spacecraft modelling toolkit, INTELMOD (INTELligent MODeller). The system has been designed to provide an environment which can efficiently capture spacecraft engineering and operational expertise, coupled with mission or phase-related knowledge. This knowledge can then be applied to support human flight controllers at ESA (European Space Agency) in performing a number of generic monitoring, analytical and diagnostic tasks. INTELMOD has been developed using a RAD (Rapid Application Development) approach, based on the Dynamic Systems Development Methodology (DSDM) and has made extensive use of Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) software products. INTELMOD also incorporates UNiT (Universal Intelligent Toolkit), to provide automatic execution of recovery procedures following fault detection and isolation. Users of INTELMOD require no formal programming experience, as models can be constructed with user-friendly editors that employ a "drag and drop" approach using pre- defined palettes of key components.
