Is Planning Technology Fit for LISA's Software?

Abstract Autonomous On-board Software
(AOS) is a complex, mission-critical component within all recent space
missions. The growth in the number and functionalities delegated to the
software, and the strict requirements on the robustness of the system,
call for a step ahead in the software process design. Standard software
design and testing have proved to be not enough in many a case, causing
either mission loss, or delayed/degraded accomplishment of the mission
tasks.
In this paper, we describe a
challenging case study provided by the forthcoming LISA Pathfinder
mission, a technology demonstration of the joint ESA/NASA cornerstone
mission, highlighting the key issues in the software process for this
case study, and the contributions that can be provided using
state-of-the-art planning, synthesis, and diagnosis techniques.
