[Moims-sc] SM&C WG WebEx#076: darft Agenda and Inputs

Mon Feb 16 09:38:56 UTC 2015

Dear all,

in preparation for the WebEx of tomorrow, please find enclosed a very 
first draft agenda for the forthcoming meeting in Pasadena. I recall that 
the proposed agenda will be:

1.      Approval of agenda and last MoM
2.      Lindolfo
3.      Review of actions
4.      Status of documents and prototypes
5.      Agenda of next SM&C WG Technical Meeting
6.      AOB.

Also PLEASE BE AWARE THAT ESA HAS SLIGHTLY CHANGED THE APPROACH TO WEBEX. 
IT IS NO LONGER POSSIBLE TO BE CALLED BACK. INSTEAD YOU HAVE TO DIAL IN 
USING A PROVIDED LOCAL NUMBER. FOR THE FIRST TIME, PLEASE ALLOW SOME 
ADDITIONAL TIME TO JOIN THE WEBEX..

Finally, below is the status of the action to the best of my knowledge:

GitHub.

SG
OPEN. 
141110-03
SC, SG and IH to check the ICD of the JSC-DLR prototype and to confirm, in 
case MO M&C Services are used, which parts are still needed and which 
parts are now redundant and can be removed. The list of all the items that 
need to be agreed between the two parties outside the standard will be 
produced and a recommendation shall be provided on how to document it in 
the standards. Make also a similar exercise for the COM Archive Service 
both for data retrieval from the Archive and data inclusion into the 
Archive.

feature in the M&C Check service.

standards, implementation and encoding aspects, and 2) to map the

(JMS, RMI and TCP-IP).

31Dec14

also by means of students and/or trainees, the production of a technology 
binding BB.

141111-09
MM to check if the EGC-CC ICD based on XTCE could be published as it may 
be done for NASA/GovSat (i.e. directly in SANA).
31Dec14
MM
CLOSED. Email of 17Dec14 by MM:

Background
The ESA strategy on XTCE is to develop a tailoring of XTCE as the exchange 
format for the TM/TC information of the EGS-CC, the next generation 
European monitoring and control infrastructure. The scope of the EGS-CC 
XTCE exchange format, XTCE-CC, has been restricted to the XTCE native 
scope (TM/TC general concepts without EGS-CC specific aspects) with a 
minimum set of extensions to ensure consistency of the mapping and data 
exchange, without changing the semantics of the XTCE standard. In 
addition, the compatibility of XTCE-CC with the ISIS XTCE (XTCE tailoring 
by CNES)  is being considered already for the production of the XTCE-CC. 
An ICD is being produced to define the XTCE-CC tailoring, with an annex 
listing the deviations with respect to ISIS ICD, and how to handle them 
for compatibility.

Response to Action
At the end of this exercise there will hopefully be a tailoring of XTCE, 
XTCE-CC, that is also compatible with the CNES ISIS. This tailoring could 
be a candidate for standardisation similarly as the one done by NASA with 
GovSat. This will be known approximately mid 2015. It may also make sense 
to wait for the publication of XTCE1.2.

Use Cases
A. European S/C and US MCS: Option 1: US MCS use XTCE-CC native; Option 2: 
European S/C generates GovSat; Option 3: A converter exists 
GovSat<->XTCE-CC
B. US S/C and European MCS: Option 1: European MCS use GovSat native; 
Option 2: US S/C generates XTCE-CC; Option 3: A converter exists 
GovSat<->XTCE-CC
C. Interoperability between ESA and CNES
D. Use either GovSat/XTCE-CC to exchange TM/TC info with other 
applications within the ground segment (e.g. MPS, SIM, FDS)
141111-10
SC to provide RJ/KR information on which M&C Service table to look at in
