The International Space Station (ISS) is composed by multiple systems and payloads. Most of the ISS systems, and part of the ISS payloads, can be commanded by both the flight crew and from multiple facilities on ground. In addition, commands and processes can be controlled by time and by event driven automation. The flight crew makes extensive use of portable computers (LAPTOPs) as the crew user interface device for systems and payloads. In the COF (Columbus Orbital Facility), the European module of the International Space Station (ISS), up to three commercial LAPTOPs, called APM Portable Workstations (APM-PWS) will be used to perform several Laptop Applications simultaneously. In order to easy crew operations and to allow the crew to perform its tasks at the most convenient location, the Laptops can be moved on board and connected to several hookup points in the APM. The LAPtop APplication Project (LAPAP) is part of the Columbus Programme of the European Space Agency (ESA), and has been developed by Alenia Spazio S.p.A., Torino (Italy), in collaboration with SIA S.p.A., Torino (Italy), under Prime Contractor responsibility of Astrium GmbhH, Bremen. The LAPAP Software represents the Graphical User Interface, running on the APM-PWS, of the Columbus Space Laboratory, in particular it constitutes the application layer of the Human-Computer interaction within the whole Flight Software. This paper briefly addresses the LAPAP architecture, then focuses on the set of applications provided to the user (astronaut) in order to perform system control activities.
