Linux Platform
{ Onofrei Paul Cristian, CTI, anul IV, grupa 3.2

2.  Purpose
 Our project evaluates the process of Altitude and
Orbit Control Electronics package.
 It involves communication between satellite and
earth stations through the Telemetry subsystem
in the satellite.
 Status of the spacecraft is available in the
telemetry buffer.
 Thus we will need to retrieve the status from the
ground station and issue the necessary control
steps by performing a series of telecommands.
Brief Description

3.  Objectives
 Acquiring TM data at specified rate.
 • Converting the hosts’ operating system from
Digital unix to Linux.
 • Using sockets instead of RPC.
 • Making the processing units scalable.
 • Display of acquired data in the format required
by the user.

18.  OpenProj is a free, open-source project management
solution. OpenProj is ideal for desktop project
management and supports opening Microsoft or
Primavera files.
 The activities of a project manager are diverse and
complex. Where the planning and control of a project
are concerned, the use of software can be practical.
If a tool is evaluated according to individual
requirements and introduced carefully, a particular
project or a project-oriented organization can be
influenced in a positive way.
 A project manager can, with the help of an appropriate
tool, prepare a project strategy more deliberately, and
can carry out the project more efficiently and with
higher quality.
