Modeling of rules for real-time knowledge base

Abstract

The paper presents approach to modeling of rules for Real-Time Spacecraft’s Onboard Knowledge Base with use of specially designed Visual Notation. Visually Checked and Improved Control Rules providing Spacecraft with Fault Tolerance feature can be uploaded onboard in operative manner by radio. As a result, we can reach more efficient and reliable Spacecraft Control. Special software Toolset supporting Visual Notation, including Visualizer of the Rules and Visual Builder, has been developed.
