Abstract :
To make spacecraft more self-reliant and less dependent on ground intervention, the authors have developed an executive (EXEC) for a new control architecture, Remote Agent. EXEC has an expanded vocabulary for commanding spacecraft, provides a wide range of capabilities at different levels of abstraction, and has a highly modular design
