The Mission Operations Division (MOD) at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center is responsible for the development, maintenance, and operation of institutional and dedicated systems to support spacecraft missions. These systems include payload operations control centers, flight software, command management facilities, and spacecraft simulation systems. The MOD uses several software life cycle strategies to fulfill its mission, including the classic waterfall life cycle model, the rapid prototype lifecycle model, and the evolutionary development lifecycle model. Each of these models is described in terms of their practical application in the development and maintenance of spacecraft mission support systems at the MOD.
