Integrated human-machine intelligence in space systems.
This paper presents an artificial intelligence approach to integrated human-machine intelligence in space systems.  It discusses the motivations for Intelligent Assistant Systems in both nominal and abnormal situations.  The problem of constructing procedures is shown to be a very critical issue.  In particular, keeping procedural experience in both design and operation is critical.  We suggest what artificial intelligence can offer in this direction.  Some crucial problems induced by this approach are discussed in detail.  Finally, we analyze the various roles that would be shared by both astronauts, ground operators, and the intelligent assistant system.
