New Human-Computer Interface Concepts for Mission Operations

Abstract

This paper will focus on the needs and the challenges of designing the Spacecraft Emergency Response System (SERS), a Web-centric suite of tools built to enable lights-out operations. More specifically, SERS is a collaborative environment that enables secure distributed fault management though the effective use USIs that are optimized for a wide variety of devices, including tradition PC Web browsers, pagers, telephony, and Internet phones. SERS has become a widely adopted tool for operations and its success is directly related to its utility and the usability (ease of use) of its USIs.
