  • This is a summary of the phased implementation planning for the new TTA Tools Suite taken from the TTAT Execution Plan.

Phase 1: Logical Design of Solicitation and Proposal Submission

Objectives:

  •  Design and prototype logical architecture to support solicitation and proposal creation. 
Design GoalsBaseline Completion

1) The system shall support definition of multiple concurrent solicitations.





April 14, 2021

2) Users shall be able to create proposals containing all proposal information except:
  • Interaction with the A3 component is not required, proxy user identification is sufficient.
  • Capabilities and Allocation Requests are stubs consisting of just the facilities and the time requested.
  • Scientific Justification need not be populated with actual PDF files.
3) Proposals shall be able to be created, edited, submitted, withdrawn and duplicated.

4) The ability to validate the software through creation and submission of test proposals and

the subsequent removal of proposals when the solicitation is opened shall be demonstrated.

Phase 2: Logical Design of Observatory Site Review and Allocation Disposition Creation

Objectives: Design and prototype logical architecture to support a review and time allocation process.

Design GoalsBaseline Completion

1) Review processes shall be able to be configured on a per solicitation basis.

Review process will be observatory site review.




April 27, 2021

2) The results of the review shall be entered and persisted, and an allocation disposition created.

  • Results shall be entered via a GUI interface.  The primary goal is to demonstrate the architectural connections between the UX and application layers.
3) Allocation Dispositions shall contain recommended allocation at the Observing Specification Disposition level, although this is simplified with respect to the final state. 

Phase 3: Logical Design of Allocation Approval, Project Creation, and Process Closeout

Objectives: Design and prototype the logical architecture to support the allocation approval, creation of observing projects,

and the closeout of the proposal process.

Design GoalsBaseline Completion
1) Generation of metrics and reports (subject to available meta-data)





May 11, 2021

2) Export of csv-formatted spreadsheets containing proposal and allocation information.
3) Modification of Allocation Dispositions by member of TTA Group.
4) Recording of acceptance by the director or designee.
5) Configurable generation and distribution of disposition letters. 

6) Creation of observing projects for proposals with positive disposition.

  • Note that this is a stub project. The intent is to demonstrate that the path to the telescope systems exist and do a minimal population of the project.

Integration: Integration of Phases 1 - 3

Objectives: Internal Software Delivery

Design GoalsBaseline Completion
1) Integrate Phases 1 - 3June 2, 2021
2) Demonstrate Functional Walking SkeletonJune 30, 2021
