  1. National Aeronautics and Space Administration PANEL: NASA Human / Systems Integration (HSI) Presentation: HSI in the Program Life Cycle • David J. Fitts Chief, Habitability & Human Factors Branch, NASA/JSC/SF3 • May 5, 2009 • AsMA 2009, Los Angeles, CA

  2. Project Formulation Development Operations The Systems Engineering Life-Cycle • As with most major government acquisitions, human spaceflight programs follow a Systems Engineering life-cycle • Defined for NASA in the NASA Systems Engineering Handbook Major phases: Formulation  Development  Operations

  3. Integration of Human Concerns • For effective consideration, Human/Systems Integration (HSI) must be thoroughly integrated with the Systems Engineering life-cycle • The Department of Defense (DoD) has developed and mandated HSI inclusion in acquisition processes • NASA has no formal HSI mandate, however... • NASA Space Life Sciences Directorate (SLSD) and Health & Medical Technical Authority processes provide HSI requirements and deliverables to human spaceflight: • Human Factors assessments & validation of spacecraft systems • Habitability requirements & design for spacecraft • Behavioral Health & Performance capabilities & countermeasures • Space Medicine capabilities for Exploration • Environmental Monitoring technologies & strategies • Human Health Countermeasures & technologies

  4. Research How can we do better? Requirements Development Requirements Integration Negotiating project buy-in Operations Lessons learned! Design Hands-on architectural involvement Verification Were requirements met? Six Capability Model for Integrating Human Concerns SLSD Human Factors personnel have promoted Six Capabilities essential to including HSI into the Systems Engineering life-cycle: Required for success: 1) Capability competency in each HSI provider’s discipline 2) Program Managers’ buy-in that each discipline may engage in their processes Operations Development

  5. Requirements Development Research Requirement Integration Operations Design Verification Relation: Six Capabilities / SE Process The Capabilities’ sequence tracks the Systems Engineering (SE) life-cycle Capability Requirements Reqts Integration Design Reqts Integration Verification Design Operations SE Phase Project Formulation Development Cycle Operations The Research capability assesses the success of HSI’s inclusion throughout the cycle and closes the loop with knowledge to write better Requirements for the future

  6. Today’s NASA HSI Panel This Panel addresses SLSD inclusion of HSI in human spaceflight using the Six Capabilities model as an organizing tool PresenterDisciplineCapability Debbie Berdich Systems EngineeringRequirements, Requirements Integration, Verification David Fitts HabitabilityDesign Jennifer Fogarty Space MedicineOperations Lauren Leveton Behavioral Health & PerformanceResearch Judith Robinson will close by continuing discussion of SLSD’s risk-based management of HSI cross-discipline concerns
