Software Helps Voyager Engineers Automatically Monitor Spacecraft; Arlington Company Develops `Expert System'

From: The Washington Post | Date: August 21, 1989| Author: | Copyright information

As the Voyager 2 spacecraft sails deeper into space and nears the planet Neptune, it is being monitored by a computer system that was built using a software development tool produced by Software Architecture and Engineering Inc. of Arlington.

Software A&E's Knowledge Engineering System (KES) was used by engineers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of Pasadena, Calif., which is managing the Voyager project for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, to develop a system that automates the monitoring of the spacecraft.

Voyager 2, which was launched 12 years ago, has traveled 4.5 ...
