ISS National Laboratory Initiative IRAD-1. UTC Contract Work. Lab-Like Architecture and Software Toolset Development

Transcription

1 ISS National Laboratory Initiative IRAD- UTC Contract Work Lab-Like Architecture and Software Toolset Development Dr. Jim Henry Trevor Elliott Marie Labrie UTC - July 2, 2009 Slide Legalese Boeing and the University of Tennessee have not, as of this date, reached agreement on Intellectual Property, Ownership and Usage of prior work at UTC and future use of the UTC deliverables in other Boeing endeavors. In consideration of that, the material contained here is for collegial sharing of information and for planning activities under the undefinitized contract. Neither this document nor any information here is to be considered a deliverable under the contract. Slide 2

2 Outline IRAD- Lab-Like architecture at Payload and Ground-Based er IRAD- IRAD- Team Team University of of Tennessee :: Dr. Dr. Jim Jim Henry, Henry, Trevor Trevor Elliott, Elliott, Marie Marie Labrie Labrie Boeing :: Amanda Rice, Rice, Ty Ty Anderson, Tom Tom Sues, Sues, Dave Dave Fuson, Fuson, Vergel VergelRomero, Tony Tony DeLaCruz, Carl Carl Konkel Konkel Slide 3 Outline - UTC s WebLab experience IRAD- Lab-Like architecture at Payload and Ground-Based er Slide 4 2

3 Background WebLab experiments available on-line since 996 s in Engineering Controls, Mechanical, Electrical & Chemical Engineering Real equipment UTC engineering labs, operated remotely via the web Some live video feeds; some live audio feeds Collaborations with universities in US, Canada, Australia, Germany, Scotland, Indonesia Method -- Universal Web Connections: - 00% browser compatible - All experimental data saved in searchable database - Batch experiments chosen from menu with adjustable parameters user is an initiator; first come, first served Many observers possible simultaneously Method 2 -- LabVIEW Remote Panel Connections: - Requires LabVIEW Plug-in on remote computer (free) - All experimental data saved in searchable database - Continuous experiments user is an initiator; first come, first served Many observers possible simultaneously Slide 5 Background Universal Connections: - 00% browser compatible - All experimental data saved in searchable database - Batch experiments chosen from menu with adjustable parameters user is an initiator; first come, first served Many observers possible simultaneously Web User 2 Scheduler Database Slide 6 3
