Abstract of Master Foilset for NASA/MADIC NII Requirements for ASOP

From Master Foilset for NASA/MADIC NII Requirements for ASOP NASA/MADIC Workshop on NII Requirements for ASOP -- May 22-23 1995 Arlington TX. by Geoffrey C. Fox * See also color IMAGE

This overview was part of a NASA sponsored workshop involving MADIC (Multidisciplinary Analysis and Design Industrial Consortium) Team 2, NASA, Georgia Tech, Rice and NPAC.
This started a MADIC activity to identify and demonstrate the use of NII technology in ASOP (Affordable Systems Optimization Process) -- a novel approach to Multidisciplinary Optimization for aircraft and other complex system design.
ASOP intrinsically involves world wide collaboration between several large aerospace corporations and tens of thousands of suppliers and so the NII can have major value both for supporting collaboration between people and for supporting the thousands of linked optimizations -- each involving several different programs.
We stress the rapid evolution of the Web and the ability of Web Technology to be applied to Enterprise Inforemation Systems such as that required to manage ASOP.
MADIC companies involved include Rockwell, General Motors, McDonnell Douglas, Northrop-Grumman-Vought, Lockheed-Martin and General Electric.
