TRANSCRIPT
Figure 2 – High level Process for Algorithm Updates
Updates of operational IDPS algorithms need to be rapid, accurate, and compatible with the exigencies of 24/7 operations. As algorithms progress
through the Calibration/Validation program, they mature and become more suitable for end users’ needs, as defined by the product maturity levels
in Figure 1. The program’s approach to incorporate changes must handle algorithms in each stage of the validation regime appropriately, with
processes and controls that balance the speed of updates against operational system considerations (Figures 2 and 3). In addition, to help ensure a
rapid transition of the algorithm code into the operational baseline, JPSS CGS has developed tools and methods to reduce the cycle time from
science algorithm to operational code. These tools (Figure 4) are being made available to any science algorithm developer who feels they may be
beneficial, and will be required for use by GFE algorithm developers.

Figure 4 - Algorithm Development Library
The Algorithm Development Library provides a toolkit enabling algorithm developers to work outside of JPSS
CGS-provided hardware, yet allow quick integration of new or modified algorithms into IDPS. This is
accomplished by aligning the algorithm structure with the IDPS architecture approach, and using operational
code-identical interface calls to perform I/O operations on the developer’s native platform.

Algorithm changes enter the Change Process through discoveries made by the Government Team or by external entities
which may propose changes to JPSS CGS algorithms. Once proposed, all recommendations are jointly vetted and, if
worthy, approved for incorporation. At this point, the change is verified from a scientific standpoint to ensure that it is both
effective and compatible with other products and processes in the system. After all stakeholders are satisfied of the efficacy
of the change, it is prioritized with other updates, integrated and tested with the complete system, and deployed to
operations.

Figure 3 – Rapid Algorithm Deployment Timeline
For algorithms in the “beta” maturity category, it is possible to execute the deployment of changes to the
Integration and Test system at a Central in as little as 24 hours. This capability is essential during the Intensive
Cal/Val timeframe, since immediate updates may be necessary to ensure continued production of xDRs for
evaluation. For products at more advanced maturity levels, standard sustainment processes would apply to
ensure all operational necessities are followed.
