ESA Columbus Ground ODF Validation• ESA ODF Management Plan currently does not cover the ESA

Columbus Ground ODF Validation Process in detail

• Recommend Validation Process Based on JSC-36054, Annex 3 - SODF Procedure Validation Plan

- Ground ODF Developers Determine Validation Requirement for Each Ground ODF- ESA ODF CB Approves these Recommendations to ensure that correct validation level for each procedure has been determined prior

to validation campaign

• Validation Requirements based on Validation Levels first defined in DLR Operations Validation Implementation Plan (Col-CC OP Delivery #3)

• In order to maximise efficiency of validation campaign a definitive list of Ground ODF should be finalised ASAP (Synthesis of EADS-ST, DLR, Payload Developer and FRCs inputs

ESA Ground ODF Validation LevelsESA Ground ODF Validation Levels(Corresponds to ISS ODF PV Requirements)(Corresponds to ISS ODF PV Requirements)

Desk Top Validation- Level-1: Validation by analysis/review

Simulation Facility Validation- Level-2: Validation using the Col-CC TQVS- Level-3: Validation during the Col-CC Simulation Campaign

- Level-3.1 Stand Alone Simulations (SAS) at Col-CC using TQVS- Level-3.2 Columbus Integrated Simulations (IS) using TQVS or Col-TRE- Level-3.3 Columbus Joint Multi-Segment (JMST) Simulations using SSTF/Col-

TRU

Flight Equipment Validation-Level-4: Validation during the System Validation Tests (SVTs) using FSF, PFM or SVF/SDIL (NASA ETE Testing)

PV Requirements Selection CriteriaPV Requirements Selection Criteria• Working Assumption: As a Minimum all Ground ODF should be

Validated up to Level 2• Propose ESA/DLR to Define PV Requirements Selection Criteria.

Examples:- Probability of Use during Flight 1E Mission- Response Delay (Immediate Actions/Response in Several Days)- Procedure Complexity (Commanding & Commanding Co-

ordination)- Criticality of ODF (Safety/Mission Critical)- Appropriate Validation Fidelity- Others

In addition• DLR to Propose Facility Configuration and Personnel Roles for Each

Validation Level ie Level 2 TQVS Validation• DLR to Propose Validation Criteria For Each Level

ESA Ground ODF Validation ProcessESA Ground ODF Validation ProcessNotes:1. New Procedure Constitutes one of the Following: - DLR Ground SODF Based on EADS-ST Flight ODF (Single or Multi-element) - DLR Ground SODF Based on EADS-ST Input - DLR Ground Multi-Element PODF Based on EADS-ST/FRC Input - Others?2. Revalidation is determined as part of PV Requirements and the ESA ODF CR Process?3. Assessment is made by Ground ODF Developer (ie Col-CC). Unless otherwise specified by

CR this assessment is only made once and the beginning of the validation process for each Ground ODF.

4. Post Columbus SVT 2 Activities5. OVRR - Operations Validation Readiness Review. Refer to OPS-PL-0-013-ESA, MSM GS

Operations Validation Plan6. POVR - Post Operations Validation Review. Refer to OPS-PL-0-013-ESA, MSM GS

Operations Validation Plan7. The I/F between the ESA ODF CB SPR System and Col-CC AR System is not defined in

current Col-CC Documentation. This I/F needs to be defined8. Do Ground ODF Have to form part of official release to ISS ODF? Release will coincide

with Ops Product Delivery Schedule

ESA Columbus Ground ODF Validation: ESA Columbus Ground ODF Validation: Additional IssuesAdditional Issues

There are a number of Issues that Impact the ODF Validation Process that need to be resolved/clarified:

• ESA ODF Validation Process - One System or Three? (Flight/Ground/Payload ODF)

• Agreed Working I/F between Flight ODF and Ground ODF Developer Teams

• Definitive List of Ground ODF• Agreed ESA ODF CR System between all ESA ODF Developers• Agreed Location(s) where ESA Columbus Ground ODF Validation

Process will be documented• Clear Flight ODF Validation Process outlined in EADS-ST
