University · Digital Twin Lab

From mission requirement to traceable software evidence.

A guided ML-D workflow over the accepted MissionLab runtime. Use the university teaching definition, engineer Mission Control, synchronized comparison, local replay, and Evidence V2 export without creating a second simulator.

Six-step laboratory workflow

Each step is a presentation route into existing MissionLab ownership. No model equation or runtime contract is duplicated here.

  1. 01mission

    Frame a requirement

    Start with an ML-D mission, a bounded configuration, and a claim the accepted runtime can actually test.

    Evidence checkpoint

    Mission objective · success criterion · declared limitation

    Open the reference ML-D mission
  2. 02configuration

    Inspect configuration identity

    Use the university 3U teaching definition and inspect the selected model bindings before interpreting results.

    Evidence checkpoint

    Spacecraft definition · model/version identity · configuration hashes

    Inspect advanced identity
  3. 03operate

    Run Mission Control

    Execute one deterministic software-only practice run, then inspect units, channel roles, source models, and freshness.

    Evidence checkpoint

    Immutable local replay · simulated and derived channels · zero measured channels

    Enter engineer Mission Control
  4. 04compare

    Compare and replay

    Use the existing same-seed comparison to study how the school 1U and university 3U teaching definitions change the run.

    Evidence checkpoint

    Shared seed · synchronized replay cursor · baseline/variant deltas

    Open synchronized comparison
  5. 05evidence

    Review evidence quality

    Separate availability, provenance, fidelity, calibration, validation, and parameter source instead of collapsing them into one quality label.

    Evidence checkpoint

    Independent fidelity axes · lineage · limitations · Evidence V2 export

    Review fidelity and lineage
  6. 06course

    Map to the course

    Faculty can map MissionLab outcomes and evidence into their own approved CLOs without transferring accreditation authority to CubeSTEM.

Mission Control is the engineering instrument

The lab reuses the accepted workbench instead of rendering a university-only telemetry dashboard.

Existing Mission Control capabilities used by the university workflow.
Engineering layerAccepted presentation
ConfigurationUniversity 3U teaching definition and bounded scenario selection
Model identityComponent/model IDs, versions, provider context, and hashes

V&V boundarySoftware evidence supports bounded conclusions, not flight qualification

Illustrative course and CLO mapping

Faculty own official CLO wording, approval, rubrics, and grading. These examples show the presentation pattern only.

KFU · Attitude-to-power verification studio

Mapped in framework
Illustrative · non-officialMLX-15

Space systems · controls · electrical power

A student team traces a declared attitude change into modeled solar-energy evidence, checks reproducibility, and writes a bounded V&V conclusion.

KFU illustrative programme scenario

Illustrative CLO-A: assess a coupled spacecraft energy claim using configuration-controlled simulation evidence.

Presentation example only. It has not been reviewed or approved by KFU and is not an official CLO.

MissionLab outcomes
MLO-01 · MLO-02 · MLO-06 · MLO-09 · MLO-10
Evidence
Configuration identity, attitude/energy channels, same-seed replay, assumptions, and a V&V-style conclusion.
Assessment ownership
Faculty-reviewed technical memo using the institution's own rubric.

UMP · Orbit-to-contact evidence review

Mapped in framework
Illustrative · non-officialMLX-07 · MLX-06

Mission operations · communications · systems engineering

A student team distinguishes modeled visibility from reception and decode, then produces a requirements-based contact-plan evidence review.

UMP illustrative programme scenario

Illustrative CLO-B: evaluate a mission contact plan against declared model provenance, constraints, and evidence gaps.

Presentation example only. It has not been reviewed or approved by UMP and is not an official CLO.

MissionLab outcomes
MLO-05 · MLO-06 · MLO-07 · MLO-09 · MLO-10
Evidence
Modeled pass evidence, declared scheduling context, replay trace, provenance boundary, and measurement plan.
Assessment ownership
Faculty-reviewed V&V matrix and operations briefing using the institution's own criteria.

Developer Core API / SDK boundary

Implemented local/private developer access, source examples, and the production-public limit shown separately.

AVAILABLE LOCAL PRACTICE

Current execution path

local

Mission Control uses the existing database-free /api/v1/missionlab/twins practice route and accepted local runtime ownership.

AVAILABLE OPT IN LOCAL PRIVATE

Core Developer API

cubestem.dt-core.developer.v1@1.0.0 provides version, discovery, curated run, same-input comparison, and bounded export operations under /developer/v1. It is disabled by default, loopback/private, and has no compile or browser credential flow.

AVAILABLE SOURCE EXAMPLES

TypeScript, Python, and Jupyter examples

Server-side and desktop source clients demonstrate reproducibility, provenance, lineage, limitations, comparisons, and in-envelope exports. They are not a hosted learner SDK or BYO-model execution environment.

NOT PRODUCTION PUBLIC

Institutional production access

A5 api_access is a commercial denial capability only: it issues no token, implements no metering, and grants no role or protected authority. Production service operation remains separately gated.

Minimum V&V review

Use this checklist before promoting a simulation result into an engineering conclusion.

Software-only evidence review; institution-specific criteria remain faculty-owned.
Review itemRequired trace
RequirementName the bounded claim and acceptance criterion before running.
ConfigurationRecord the spacecraft definition, scenario, seed, and model identities.
EvidenceCite channel IDs, units, roles, provenance, source models, and replay frame.
RepeatabilityUse deterministic reconstruction or same-seed compare; do not imply persistence.
ValidityKeep representation, fidelity, calibration, validation, and parameter source independent.
ConclusionState what the software supports and what requires calibration or authorized measurement.
