Abstract

I. Introduction rogram affordability is one of the cornerstones of long-term sustainability of NASA’s vision for Space Exploration Systems. At the very least, this vision depends upon 1) public interest and support, 2) programmatic infrastructure, and 3) application of emerging technologies that create unprecedented capabilities. Efficiency and supply-chain logistics are key contributors to program affordability, and are dependent on infrastructure and application of emerging technologies. News of inefficiency and failure to maintain adequate supply chain logistics sufficient for realization of mission goals will rapidly erode public interest and support. Therefore, our development of emerging coordinating and reconciliation of operations and maintenance technology clearly addresses the whole of the sustainability concept. Effective harnessing of emerging technologies through innovative systems engineering concepts and …
