The information presented in this book was originally given as a set of lectures in 1999 and 2000 instigated by a NASA Flight Software Branch Chief at Goddard Space Flight Center. The Branch Chief later suggested this book. It provides an approachable insight into the area and is not intended as an essential reference work. ACS Without an Attitude is intended for programmers and testers new to the field who are seeking a commonsense understanding of the subject matter they are coding and testing in the hope that they will reduce their risk of introducing or missing the key software bug that causes an abrupt termination in their spacecraft?s mission. In addition, the book will provide managers and others working with spacecraft with a basic understanding of this subject. 410 0$aNASA Monographs in Systems and Software Engineering,$x1860-0131 606 $aSpecial purpose computers 606 $aAerospace engineering 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aSoftware engineering 606 $aSpecial Purpose and Application-Based Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I13030 606 $aAerospace Technology and Astronautics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050 606 $aSoftware Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14029 615 0$aSpecial purpose computers. 615 0$aAerospace engineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 0$aSoftware engineering. 615 14$aSpecial Purpose and Application-Based Systems. 615 24$aAerospace Technology and Astronautics. 615 24$aSoftware Engineering. 676 $a004 700 $aHallock$b Harold L$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01059484 702 $aWelter$b Gary$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aSimpson$b David G$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aRouff$b Christopher$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254817703321 996 $aACS Without an Attitude$92505992 997 $aUNINA
