AMOS Conference 2016

The AMOS (Advanced Maui Optical and Space Surveillance Technologies) Conference is the leading forum for participants from the fields of Defense and Academe to explore and unveil new ideas and achievements in the field of space surveillance—with a special focus on Space Situational Awareness (SSA).

At AMOS 2016, to be held September 20-23, 2016, on Maui, Hawaii, Stottler Henke will present its TRACER system, currently under development for the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). TRACER is a set of AI-based automated and automatable tools which monitor AF Remote Tracking Station (RTS) and Directional Finder (DF) antenna signals to detect and categorize Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI). TRACER will provide the Air Force with improved SSA, offer increased support for adversarial scenarios (both real and during training), and dramatically shorten EMI response time—and, in so doing, realize significant manpower savings for AFRL. The ultimate goal of TRACER is to automate terrestrial EMI emitter localization and identification.

AFRL SSA Conference 2016

Stottler Henke will further highlight the Space Situation Awareness applications of TRACER at the SECRET Level AFRL SSA Conference to be held on Maui September 19-20, 2016.

MAST Europe 2016

At the Maritime Air/Systems & Technologies (MAST) Europe 2016 Conference, held June 21-23, 2016 in Amsterdam, Netherlands, Stottler Henke presented the Intelligent Pairing Assistant (IPA), an AI-based decision support system which provides recommendations at specific decision points in the planning process within USAF Air Operations Centers (AOCs).

Within a US Air Force Air Operations Center, planners make crucial decisions to create the air plan for any given day. One major challenge is making the best use of available resources. For instance, rather than assigning an unmanned aerial vehicle to an intelligence, surveillance, and/or reconnaissance collection task, it may be more cost effective and expedient to further task a manned aircraft that is already operating in the area. Hurried human planners often overlook opportunities to take advantage of relationships between tasks.

This paper describes the Intelligent Pairing Assistant (IPA) decision aid, which uses encoded expert knowledge to analyze the data and present recommendations at specific decision points in the planning process. IPA assists planners in making their decisions by generating recommendations that narrow down the possibilities that must be considered. Specifically, IPA filters the existing missions to highlight those most likely to be able to meet a specific collection request or set of requests. IPA then provides additional information for these missions in a graphical format to help the planner quickly decide among the available missions.

IPA is deployed as a plug-in to a software system already in use within US Air Force Air Operations Centers. The primary contributions of this case study are applying artificial intelligence techniques to the air planning domain and discussing the software evaluation efforts in moving from a prototype to a deployed system.

Stottler Henke provided a lecture on Reduced Production and Maintenance Project Duration via Intelligent Resource Allocation & Constraint Management: Navy and Other Applications at ShipTech 2012.

ShipTech_2012_logo_small

In complex production and maintenance environments, such as shipbuilding and maintenance, the method of allocating resources and managing other constraints significantly affects the efficiency of progress as well as the overall project duration.  Resources include human resources, equipment resources and physical-space resources. Human resources alone can be quite complex; for example, tasks may require multiple individuals, each of whom may need to have certain occupations (such as a mechanic), and there may be additional requirements for some or all the individuals to have additional specific skills/certifications. Add to this the limitation of equipment (e.g., cranes) and the complexity only grows.  In shipbuilding and maintenance, physical space is often a limiting resource; for example, when conducting submarine maintenance, physical-space limitations are common, as well as the physical-space limitation of submarine ingress and egress.  As if these considerations were not complex enough, other constraints are usually present, such as constraints on certain types of work (e.g., hot work), when other conditions are in effect.

Due to the inherent complexity of resource allocation and constraint management for such complex production and maintenance environments, the project durations can be two-times, or more, longer than needed.  Mathematically, the resource-constrained scheduling problem can be shown to be very complex, and for projects of any realistic size the globally-optimum solution cannot be guaranteed in less than geological time even on the fastest computers. Therefore, many branches of science and engineering from operations research to Artificial Intelligence have developed techniques to find relatively optimum solutions in realistic timeframes.  Unfortunately, most commercial project management software does not benefit from such intelligent scheduling technology.

This presentation shows that the method used affects the project duration even for relatively small projects consisting of a few dozen tasks, and the effect becomes more pronounced as the number of tasks grows and number of types and quantity of resources expand. Some of the literature on this topic showing different techniques and results showing the major difference in schedule duration due to the scheduling method is also reviewed.  Many lessons will be drawn from Stottler Henke’s own work in this area.  Since the early 1990s, Stottler Henke has been working with NASA, Boeing, the US Navy and other companies to develop advanced scheduling technologies and software using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other techniques.  Lessons learned from experience at the Naval Submarine Support Facility (NSSF) and at Boeing per the manufacture of the B787 Dreamliner are provided.  Without adding one extra resource, an entire project can be shortened significantly; therefore the application of more-efficient resource allocation and constraint management methods can reduce total ownership cost of naval ships while enhancing the competitiveness of the domestic shipbuilding industry.
