The Parallel Mission Analysis Tool, Paramat, is a parallel processing system under development at Thinking Systems. Paramat runs the proven GMAT numerical engine in a parallel processing environment to perform large scale orbital analysis. Paramat has been used for Monte-Carlo analysis of captures at Jupiter, for conjunction assessment studies, and as a tool to run multiple GMAT scripts simultaneously.
Some uses of Paramat are described in the following conference papers:
- Monte Carlo Simulation of a Triple Flyby Capture at Jupiter Using Paramat
- A Monte-Carlo Study of Conjunction Analysis Using Paramat
- Using the Paramat System in Mission Analysis and Design
The Paramat system began as a research project at Thinking Systems in 2014. Paramat is extended based on customer needs, so if you have a large scale mission analysis problem that needs a tool to help manage data collection and processing, contact Thinking Systems and we'll be glad to help.
