Operating on the Cutting Edge
Science Systems and Analysis
Raytheon-Pasadena is responsible for the design, implementation, and operation of the Science Investigator Processing Systems (SIPS) for both instruments. We support data analysis, science software design, development, integration and testing. The TES and MLS missions are in their second year of measuring the Earth's greenhouse gases, pollution and aerosols in atmosphere. We also support the upcoming Orbiting Carbon Observatory.
Ocean science support, from model design and implementation, to data analysis and forecasting ocean events is another area of our expertise. The Regional Ocean Modeling team supporting JPL scientists has just completed participation in the very successful Monterey Bay summer modeling and measurement campaign MB06.
Above is an illustration of the Raytheon design for the Integrated Ocean Observing System performed under contract to NOAA which Raytheon Pasadena and Raytheon Aurora, both part of Raytheon's Intelligence and Information Systems business, collaborated on.

After implementation is complete, our account management, support, education and consulting services will ensure ConnX e-HR continues to deliver value to your organisation.
Thales launches standards-based encryption key management appliance
TEMS is the first standards-based key manager available with draft IEEE P1619.3 key management standard support and will support the final specification, due out early 2010. Subsequent releases will also support the recently announced OASIS KMIP key management standard.
Earlier this year, the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS), headed by IBM, Thales, HP, and EMC, with support from Seagate, Netapp, LSI, and Brocade, proposed a standardized encryption management specification known as KMIP (Key Management Interoperability Protocol).
Organizations have a desire to deploy encryption across the enterprise, explains OASIS in a KMIP FAQ. They often deploy separate encryption for different business uses – laptops, storage, databases, and applications. In general, enterprises have a lack of confidence that, once encrypted, IT managers will be able to actually recover the encrypted data when they’ll need to.
"As data breaches continue to embarrass companies and incur real costs, security initiatives have naturally focused on the storage infrastructure. The use of encryption within the switching fabric, back-up tapes, drives, arrays, and host adapters is rapidly becoming essential for safeguarding sensitive information, but many organizations are concerned about reliability and data recoverability issues," says Jon Oltsik, senior analyst with Enterprise Strategy Group.
KMIP looks to solve this issue by offering interoperability across encryption and key management systems. The primary focus is to offer a way to standardize communication between encryption systems that need to consume keys, and the key management systems that create and manage them.
“KMIP enables the industry to have any encryption system communicate with any key management system. Through this interoperability, enterprise will be able to deploy a single enterprise key management infrastructure to mange keys for all encryption systems in the enterprise that require symmetric keys, asymmetric keys pairs, certificates and other security objects,” OASIS documentation explains.
TEMS, available in July, Thales said, will support legacy or proprietary key management interfaces to provide storage managers the flexibility to utilize encryption at various points within their storage environments and to take advantage of pre-certified integration with their preferred storage systems.
Business Unit of Tsukiden Software Philippines, Inc. as a Capability Maturity Model Integration
TSPI was recommended for CMMI 1.2 Level 3 by its Lead Appraiser, Dr. Vinit Maheshwari, Director of Maverick Quality Advisory Services Private Limited and CMMI-certified High Maturity Lead Appraiser last June 18, 2010. After 26 days, the recommendation was accepted and approved for public use by Carnegie-Mellon SEI.
The Capability Maturity Model Integration, or CMMI for short, is an internationally-recognized process improvement approach that helps guide organizations to integrate traditionally separate organizational functions, set process improvement goals and priorities, provide guidance for quality processes, and provide a point of reference for appraising current processes.
United Space Alliance Honors Dekker, Ltd.
USA Supplier Relations representative Gary Henderson opened the presentation with a brief history of USA’s position as NASA’s chief contractor responsible for the Space Shuttle program, and then turned his attention to the future of space exploration.
“We are going back to the moon and to Mars,” said Henderson, “It’s not fantasy anymore.” NASA will retire the Space Shuttle program in 2010, switching to a rocket-propelled vehicle called Ares for the upcoming Constellation missions to the International Space Station, the moon, and eventually to Mars, Henderson said.
Henderson expressed his esteem for Dekker, Ltd.’s recent efforts in supplying USA with project management training and software applications that enable sound earned value management and NASA 533 reporting, which NASA requires its contractors to provide. “We have noticed that things are going right, and we appreciate it,” Henderson said.
USA President, CEO and STS-34 (Atlantis) Shuttle Astronaut Mike McCulley then presented Dekker, Ltd. President and CEO Simon Dekker with the award, which consisted of a framed and embossed certificate, signed by McCulley, thanking Dekker, Ltd. for its dedicated service.
“What you are doing and how you are doing it is really key to us right now,” said McCulley, emphasizing the success that USA has enjoyed with the Dekker PMIS™ (Project Management Information System) software suite, education and consulting services. “You have been an excellent vendor; truly teammates,” McCulley said.
“Dekker, Ltd. software has been used by various NASA contractors since 1986, and I am proud to know that we will be on the last Shuttle mission and beyond to the moon and Mars with the Constellation program,” said Dekker.
McCulley and Henderson stressed the importance of Dekker’s role in providing sound project management and process control in performing space exploration missions safely and efficiently.
“The astronauts’ lives are in our hands,” said Henderson.
McCulley, a former Shuttle Astronaut, elaborated on the difficulties and the wonders involved in space travel. He described how a piece of foam traveling at 500 miles per hour could create a breach in the tough armor of the Shuttle exterior, an unforeseen phenomenon that caused the Columbia disaster in 2003. He then explained that the problem had since been solved, and that manned space flight has always been and will continue to be dangerous, but that scientists and engineers will continue to learn from the cumulative mistakes and successes of the past in order to better plan for future missions.
McCulley closed the presentation by fielding questions from the audience, one of which was, “Which do you find scarier: takeoff or landing?” McCulley simply said that the two were different. “In space travel you have three parts,” he said, “the getting there, the being there, and the coming back.” Each one has its own character, explained McCulley, and each has its own wonders and thrills.
Then McCully paused for a moment, recounting a memory that seemed to supersede his train of thought. “I remember one time in orbit,” he said, “I managed to get my eyes so close to the window that all I could see was space coming at me. Now, I’ve driven fast cars, flown fast jets and the like, and in all my experience with speed, it’s always been very rough and very loud. But looking out of that window, traveling at 17,500 miles per hour [or five miles per second], there was no noise. And the movement was smooth. I’ll never forget that – speed without sound.” He added, “I am truly the luckiest man alive.”
United Space Alliance has been a Dekker, Ltd. customer since the Fall of 2006, implementing the full Dekker PMIS™ suite of software tools, education and consulting support for a robust project, program and EVM component to the Constellation program.
