Exploratory Systems Control Model Development (ESMD) User Manual.

摘要

This publication is the User Manual for the Exploratory Systems Control Model Development (ESMD). It describes the system, each capability and how to use it. The Exploratory Systems Control Model (ESM) consists of the original three loop ESM network delivered under Contract DCA100-75-C-0054 and the fourth ESMD loop delivered under Contract DCA100-76-C-0081. The ESM will also include a fifth loop to be supplied under the MSCDM Contract (DCA100-76-C-0083). The ESM provides a flexible tool for simulating and comparing a wide range of system control architectures and their related procedures and protocols. The ESM was designed to model the class of system control architectures that have the characteristics of decentralized operation, modularity, easy modification and upgrade capability, high reliability, high survivability and fail-soft operation.
