AFSPC Space Analysis Resource Portal
Client: SI International/AFSPC Space Analysis Division (A9Y)
Technologies: .NET Framework, C#, SQL Server
Project Summary: The AFSPC Space Analysis division desired a web portal that would allow the modeling and simulation communities the ability to record and share information about space models and simulations, provide access to an electronic library of studies and analysis associated with those models and simulations and to record and share authoritative information and data about space systems to include satellites, launch vehicles, missiles, space sites and space related environmental information. The portal also includes a forum to assist collaboration within the national space community allowing users to exchange information about models/simulations and studies/analysis and to share practical experience gained from using those models/simulations. Other portal features include an events calendar, announcements/news page, file upload/download capabilities for the distribution of space specific software and/or data files, the ability to specify and mass email groups of users, and the means to perform portal/user administration on-line. Search capabilities were incorporated to find models/simulations based on their scope/application/mission area etc., metrics or overall usage or to find a study based on user input variables or metrics. Because of the various users and levels of security required, the information presented and navigation available were designed to be subject to account/role access. DSoft Technology project responsibilities include full life-cycle software development, including system requirement analysis, design, development, documentation, and deployment of the Space Analysis Resource Portal. In addition, DSoft provides management and technical expertise to AFSPC Space Analysis on the evaluation of models and simulations using proven techniques and processes. After the original portal was released, the AFSPC Space Analysis recognized a deficiency in the way space was represented in various wargames and other decision making activities. In ensure that space is represented accurately and also to promote efficiency by sharing information and data, DSoft added a database of authoritative space information categorized by year from 2007 through 2020 that supports operators, trainers, testers, and analysts.

Cost Schedule Performance Tool
Client: AFSPC Space Analysis Division (A9)
Technologies: .NET Framework, C#, SQL Server
Project Summary: The Cost Schedule Performance (CSP) Tool was developed as a display tool to assist senior leaders in making space system portfolio decisions and support the Department of Defense (DoD) Program Objective Memorandum (POM) process. In addition, this tool was designed to view the overall Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) Total Obligation Authority (TOA) while also visualizing how the TOA is broken out among military systems of interest while displaying performance and launch information. Data for the CSP Application is supplied from the AeroSpace Integrated Investment Software (ASIIS) graphical user interface (GUI), a separate Microsoft Excel-based workbook application which includes several worksheets of TOA model solution data. CSP allows for systems of interest to be added, removed, slipped, or accelerated in time to investigate the affect on the overall TOA or performance. The CSP Application is a Windows forms-based application that provides a more visual and intuitive GUI, and an improved presentation layer with additional charts for results. The results are now re-calculated with each edit and presented immediately, so the user can witness the effects of individual edits without waiting to rerun the entire data set.
