Abstract

Nomenclature α = function of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) β = complexity of each connection between pairs of components γ = 1/n Πi = expected profit for missions of type i A = Design Structural Matrix C = assembly, integration, and test cost C = development cost of each satlet variant C = non-recurring development costs C = aggregate system level PMSE estimate Ci R = recurring costs (manufacturing costs, operations costs, and launch costs) C1 = complexity due to number and flight readiness of components C2 = complexity due to pair-wise component interactions
