Parallel version of special perturbations orbit propagator
Abstract
Parallelization can be achieved by either control or domain decomposition. The latter was tried for analytic and semianalytic propagators. Neal and Coffey discuss the domain decomposition for special perturbations. The control decomposition idea is inefficient for analytic propagators, because the computation time is too short. In this report we discuss a control decomposition approach to parallelize a numerical orbit propagator which may be more computationally intensive.

A formal approach to hazard decomposition in Software Fault Tree Analysis
Needham, Donald Michael (Monterey, California: Naval Postgraduate School, 1990);As digital control systems are used in life-critical applications, assessment of the safety of these control systems becomes increasingly important. One means of formally performing this assessment is through fault tree ... -
