AAAI Fall Symposium on Spacecraft Autonomy 2006

Short Description
The goal of this workshop is to identify and explore the artificial intelligence technologies that will allow NASA and other space organizations to operate spacecraft and surface habitats with increased safety and reliability, while reducing the lifecycle costs in terms of mission planning, training, operations and maintenance. Key research issues include: adjustable, human-in-the-loop automation that helps crew and mission operations staff work more safely and efficiently; techniques that robustly handle failures and unplanned outcomes, as well as interruptions and overrides from crew; and techniques to validate automation software and applications. We will also focus on critical functions of spacecraft autonomy such resource management, fault detection, isolation and recovery, integrated health management, state assessment, mode management, onboard checkout, mission management, and coordination with humans.
