Applicability of ECSS E-TM-10-21 to national space programs

摘要

The European Cooperation for Space Standardization (ECSS) has published ECSS-TM-10-21 in 2010 which covers simulation facilities utilized throughout several phases of space system development lifecycle. The main driver for the standardization effort was to uniquely identify the configurations employed by several industries and institutions under different names and portray a clear picture of modeling and simulation applications primarily intended to guide the system engineering process. Although the memorandum can be used as a guideline for the standardization of the modeling & simulation (M&S) processes involved in the national space programs, certain adaptations shall be performed to fit to the local context.
