Control systems for microgee experiment payloads integrated in the Columbus infrastructure will play an important role because of the highly automated nature of facility operation. To assure proper design of these type of control systems a comprehensive development methodology is mandatory. A development model allows structured and formalized...

A study was started within NLR on the design of control systems for experiment payload automation within the Columbus framework. The study aims at the introduction of a controller development model for experiment payloads. This report, which is the first study output, is primarily meant to define study logic, work breakdown and work description....

This report presents the results of an NLR study on control architectures for automation and robotics systems applied in space. Literature in this area was studied and subsequently a classification of concepts was made in order to get more insight in ideas, concepts and approaches for A&R control system architectures. Main attention was given to...

To support the development of the Hermes manipulator arm HERA several simulation facilities were identified. An early simulation facility was defined: the HERA Simulation Facility Pilot. This is a simulation facility which shall support real-time simulation of HERA and real-world systems related with it. A feasibility study was done to find out...
