Fault Management Analysis Tool For Model Centric Systems Engineering

This proposal responds to the need for new technologies to effectively manage and streamline complex fault management (FM) systems, enable rapid diagnostic model generation and validation, and provide tools to perform FM analyses and trades e.g., fault containment regions (FCRs), redundancy management, and sensor placement. Okean Solutions proposes to significantly improve FMnbsp;system modeling and analysis by integrating their model-based fault management tool/system, called MONSIDreg;, with JPLrsquo;s Computer Aided Engineering for Systems Architecture (CAESAR) platform. The innovation will create greater visibility into the FM process and lower the barriers to entry for users who are not FM experts. The combined capability will advance the practice of FM to ultimately decrease manually intensive and error-prone tasks and schedule costs while ensuring FM system robustness and appropriateness. The main application is FM analyses as well as design and software development. This could also be used in Integration and Test (Iamp;T) and operationalnbsp;phases to update onboard FM models and in support of recovery operations. By integrating with CAESAR, Okean Solutions sees unique opportunities to increase visibility and the number of users of the MONSID toolset as well as to provide more functionality for CAESAR.
