将人工智能应用于空间站系统管理的一个中心问题是空间站系统设计特性的获取与表示。人类可以从形形色色甚至是不完整的设计材料中得到一个非形式化系统(如:说明、图示、故障处理过程),而AI辅助系统(诸如:专家系统和机器人)却要求设计文件信息的表达要结构化。在空间站自动化系统中使用设计文件的方法正在研究之中,例如:适当的CAD绘图文件就包含了专家系统和机器人系统所使用的信息。空间站由一些大规模自动化系统相互有关的网络组成(电力、热源、制导、导航、通讯与跟踪)。宇航员要求对这些系统的操作界面一目了然,同时需要了解这些系统进行集中化管理的中心控制点。MITRE正在帮助约翰逊航天中心探索人工智能在集成化系统管理(ISM)中的应用。ISM的子功能包括:集成化状态评估(ISA)、目标管理(OM)、规划支持环境(PSE)和过程解释器(PI)。ISA的功能包括:状态评估及操作状况记录,异常现象识别及报警,事故分析、诊断和空间站能力评估。由于已对即将发生或已发生的错误进行了评估,所以ISA实际上具备了鉴定保存空间站的能力。OM将在选择满足安全性和飞行任务目标的综合结构时使用空间站这种评估能力。OM还将进一步确定一些预定义的过程,这些过程对实现目标结构是必不可少的。PSE功能将协调任务并安排完成重新配置所必备的资源。PI将帮助宇航员按重新配置后的要求操纵空间站系统。
One of the central issues in the application of artificial intelligence to systems management in the space station is the acquisition and presentation of the design characteristics of the space station system. Human beings can get an unformatted system (such as description, illustration and fault handling) from all kinds of even incomplete design materials, and AI auxiliary systems (such as expert systems and robots) require the expression of design information To be structured. Methods of using design documents in the automation of a space station are under study. For example, suitable CAD drawings contain information used by expert systems and robotic systems. The space station is made up of networks of interconnected large-scale automation systems (electricity, heat sources, guidance, navigation, communication and tracking). Astronauts require a clear overview of the interfaces to these systems, as well as a central point of control for the centralized management of these systems. MITER is helping Johnson Space Center explore the use of artificial intelligence in Integrated Systems Management (ISM). Sub-capabilities of ISM include: Integrated Status Assessment (ISA), Object Management (OM), Planning Support Environment (PSE), and Process Interpreter (PI). The ISA features include: status assessment and operational status recording, anomaly identification and alerting, incident analysis, diagnostics and space station capability assessment. The ISA actually has the ability to authenticate a space station because of the assessment of impending or occurred errors. OM will use space station assessment capabilities in selecting a comprehensive structure that meets the safety and mission objectives. The OM will further define some of the predefined processes that are necessary to achieve the target structure. The PSE function will coordinate tasks and schedule the necessary resources to complete the reconfiguration. PI will help astronauts manipulate the space station system as reconfigured.
