NASIS data base management system - IBM 360/370 OS MVT implementation. 2: Overviews

The systems overviews of the NASA Aerospace Safety Information System (NASIS) are presented. The overviews are directed toward informing management of a system's capabilities and requirements. The intent of the overviews is to introduce the system features to interested individuals. Each overview contains a description of the component's activities and roles in the overall system. The description includes charts and diagrams and a discussion of the performance requirements and growth potential of the module.

Development of the data base for a degradation model of a selenide RTG

The paper is concerned with the evaluation of the materials used in a selenide radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG). These materials are composed of n-type gadolinium selenide and n-type copper selenide. A three-fold evaluation approach is being used: (1) the study of the rate of change of the thermal conductivity of the material, (2) the investigation of the long-term stability of the material's Seebeck voltage and electrical resistivity under current and temperature gradient conditions, and (3) determination of the physical behavior and compatibility of the material with surrounding insulation at elevated temperatures. Programmatically, the third category of characteristic evaluation is being emphasized.

Classification of LANDSAT agricultural data based upon color trends

An automated classification procedure is described. The decision rules were developed for classifying an unknown observation by matching its color trend with that of expected trends for known crops. The results of this procedure were found to be encouraging when compared with the usual supervised classification procedures.

Flight design system-1 system design. Volume 5: Data management and data base documentation support system

Application software intended to reduce the man-hours required per flight design cycle by producing major flight design documents with little or no manual typing is described. The documentation support software is divided into two separately executable processors. However, since both processors support the same overall functions, and most of the software contained in one is also contained in the other, both are collectively presented.
