Abstract Spacecraft software is discussed here in terms of (1) the functions the software has to perform, (2) the software architecture and (3) the manner in which the functions are performed. While the functions the software has to perform are generic, there can be different architectures and different methods of implementing the functions. Here, a point design is described, a design with a lot of flight heritage over many different spacecraft. The spacecraft missions in this example are: Store and Forward communications Collecting data from and commanding unattended remote sensors Imaging designated targets and downlinking image data from the spacecraft to ground stations
