SAN MATEO, CA, March 30, 2009 — Stottler Henke Associates, Inc. today appear the accolade of a arrangement with the U.S. Air Force to advance an beat accommodation abutment apparatus to agenda space-to-ground communications that adviser and ascendancy U.S. Government satellites. The arrangement incorporates Stottler Henke’s proprietary Aurora(TM) software that uses artificial intelligence techniques to accomplish optimized solutions to circuitous scheduling problems.
The U.S. government’s digital ascendancy arrangement is comprised of added than a dozen arena stations and hundreds of satellites that fly in geosynchronous, highly-elliptical, or low-earth orbits. These satellites abutment a advanced array of aggressive and non-military missions, and their connected operation is basic for civic security.
Satellites have to periodically barter bloom and cachet abstracts and commands with arena stations to ensure that they advance their orbits and accomplish correctly. Currently, the Air Force relies on teams of planners to agenda these satellite-to-ground advice passes. When a arena base botheration occurs, advice passes involving the adulterated arena base have to be bound rescheduled and reassigned to new arena stations to accommodated mission deadlines. However, scheduling is circuitous because the times if communications can crop abode depend aloft anniversary satellite’s different apogee and the blazon and area of anniversary arena station. Communication time windows of low apple apogee satellites can endure just ten or fifteen account as they bound fly in and out of appearance of a arena station.
Under this contract, Stottler Henke is designing and prototyping an beat accommodation abutment arrangement that will accomplish optimized schedules for advice passes that amuse these circuitous constraints. It will absorb its accurate Aurora scheduling engine to accomplish high-quality schedules.
“Organizations usually advance big-ticket custom software systems to break ability allocation problems with different and circuitous constraints”, says Dick Stottler, admiral of Stottler Henke. “By leveraging Aurora technology, we can bound advance an acutely able scheduling arrangement that generates optimized solutions automatically.” continues Stottler.
Aurora is a adult scheduling arrangement that combines a array of scheduling techniques, able scheduling battle resolution, and accommodation abutment to accomplish awful able solutions to circuitous problems. The software’s customizable scheduling algorithms crop into anniversary ability requirements, circuitous constraints, and pertinent area knowledge. Aurora’s complete capabilities and adaptability accredit it to decidedly beat added scheduling systems that use all-encompassing heuristics to accredit assets to tasks. The Boeing Company uses Aurora to administer the action of architecture the Boeing 787 Dreamliner(TM) bartering airliner. NASA uses Aurora at Kennedy Space Center to agenda International Space Station burden and Shuttle processing activities. The United Space Alliance (USA) congenital Aurora into Temporis, advised to agenda flight activities on axle NASA’s next-generation manned spacecraft. Aurora was featured in NASA’s Hallmarks of Success video alternation that showcases acknowledged aftereffect technologies.
Founded in 1988, Stottler Henke Associates, Inc. applies artificial intelligence and added beat software technologies to break problems that baffle band-aid application acceptable approaches. The aggregation delivers able software solutions for apprenticeship and training, planning and scheduling, ability administration and discovery, accommodation support, and software development. In 2006, Stottler Henke was the accountable of a NASA "Hallmarks of Success” video contour for its plan developing and after commercializing beat planning and training software systems. Stottler Henke accustomed a 2004 “Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning” accolade for avant-garde technology. Stottler Henke was called one of the "top 100" companies authoritative a cogent appulse on the aggressive training industry by Military Training Technology magazine, and in 2005 accustomed a Blue Ribbon acquainted it as a aggregation that leads the industry in innovation.

The arrangement will advice aggressive and noncombatant agencies apprentice to administer MPICE added bigger to appraise the advance of adherence and about-face operations.
It is acutely difficult to appraise the advance of adherence and about-face operations conducted in circuitous environments such as Iraq and Afghanistan. To abode this problem, the US Government developed the Measuring Progress in Conflict Environments (MPICE) framework. It is a absolute archive of quantitative metrics for assessing institutional achievement and drivers of battle in 5 sectors: abiding governance, safe and defended environment, aphorism of law, acceptable economy, and amusing well-being. In addition, a new MPICE software apparatus will advice leaders and analysts capture, manage, analyze, interpret, visualize, and address MPICE metrics abstracts to admeasurement the advance of operations in battle environments added bound and effectively.
Under this new contract, a aggregation led by Stottler Henke will advance the MPICE Intelligent Tutoring System (MPICE-ITS). This arrangement will advise higher-level analytic abilities bare to use the MPICE framework and software apparatus effectively. Planned acquirements objectives cover selecting, adapting, and weighting metrics that are adapted for the ambiance and mission. Additional acquirements objectives cover accession and interpreting metrics abstracts to appraise advance and archetypal the causes and accoutrement in the environment.
MPICE-ITS will acquaint concepts, facts, and strategies for application the MPICE methodology. In addition, it will cover scenario-based contest that claiming acceptance to administer this ability to break problems in academic or actual battle environments. Tutoring dialogs will accommodate hints and affectation questions to adviser the students’ reasoning, arm-twist and appraise their rationale, and animate them to reflect on their own acumen and decisions.

Stottler Henke - US Air Force Awards Stottler Henke a $750,000 Contract to Develop an After-Action Review Tool for Team Training
SAN MATEO, Calif., July 14, 2009 – Stottler Henke Associates, Inc., today appear the accolade of a two-year $750,000 arrangement with the U.S. Air Force to advance an Intelligent Diagnostic Assistant software apparatus to advice advisers analysis and appraisal on-line babble data, events, and decisions during all-embracing aggregation exercises. The arrangement will accommodate beat appraisal and decision techniques to advice advisers ascertain advice and allocation problems.
To abutment circuitous air operations, dozens of planners have to plan calm to strategize, prioritize, plan, de-conflict, and adviser the beheading of dozens or even hundreds of circumstantial missions. Mis-communication or adulterated allocation can could cause planning errors that advance to mission abortion and accident of life.
On-line babble provides planners with a able new adjustment of alive together. Typically, air planners use dozens of babble rooms, anniversary committed to altercate a abstracted affair across such as Intelligence or Planning. After a archetypal four hour planning exercise, advisers ability accept alone thirty account to adapt for an after-action review. During this time, they have to appraisal all-encompassing babble logs to analyze and analyze aggregation allocation and controlling problems, so they can catechize planners on their performance. Analyzing air planning babble logs is complicated because the assorted aspects of anniversary mission are discussed in altered babble rooms, and assorted missions are discussed accompanying in anniversary babble room. Thus, advisers have to reconstruct the accumulation altercation for anniversary mission by alignment and apropos letters that amount assorted babble apartment and are interleaved with letters for added missions.
The Intelligent Diagnostic Assistant (IDA), beneath development by Stottler Henke, will accredit added connected afterwards action review. For example, alternate and accommodating graphical timelines and argument displays will accredit advisers to browse, analyze, and anticipate logs of on-line discussions and contest to admit missing or incorrect communications and decisions. Intelligent argument appraisal will accumulation utterances that chronicle to the aforementioned altercation cilia and banderole some problems automatically. IDA will advice the Air Force accretion insights to advice them alter guidelines and accepted operating procedures to advance complex, aggregation planning.
