The document discusses Travis Chung's experience working on the KMAX program at Lockheed Martin, including simulation work using a KVH simulator to facilitate communication between a navigation service and aircraft, as well as challenges overcome like learning new tools. It also describes application work to calculate slope values for landing gear and identify potential landing sites using slope data, and technical work setting up a continuous integration server using tools like Tomcat and Jenkins to build components and run unit tests.

2. Simulation
KVH Simulator
• Communication between
Navigation Service and
Aircraft
• Receive messages from
Navigation Service
• Responds to Navigation
Service with data
gathered from aircraft

3. Simulation
KVH Simulator
Challenges and Resolution
Challenges/Benefits
• Getting familiar with the work environment
• Learning new tools and frameworks
• Boost, gprof, subversion, Eclipse
• Improved programming skills

4. Application
Landing Site Identification
&
Slope Calculations
Slope Calculations
• Determines slope values of
the landing gear
• Matrix Manipulation
• FFT, 2D convolution, cross
product
Landing Site Identification
• Establishes DDS connection
• Parses slope data
• Uses pitch and roll slope to
interpolate probability of
landing

5. Technical
Continuous Integration Server
• Tools used
• Tomcat servlet application
• Jenkins continuous integration
platform
• Challenges
• Build process of each component
• Setting up Unit tests
