Abstract :
This paper presents a modeling tool that is a part of the request oriented scheduling engine system being designed at NASA for the scheduling of payload space activities on board the International Space Station. The resident modeler provides a robust method for easily representing complex sequences of activities for use in planning and scheduling activities. Although directed toward space activity scheduling, the paper addresses other application areas for this technology.
