In the space propulsion applications the automatic topics have a significant contribution. Indeed, from development to post flight analysis, through the overall life cycle, the automatic tools allow or contribute (or could contribute in the future) to: Reduce the development and production cost, improve the trust accuracy and the reliability, make the engine control management more robust, improve the capability of flight mission agility, facilitate the post flight analysis,.... Of course all the ACD technologies are not currently in use or should not be applied even in future space context! So a small" travel" in the space propulsion world from past studies through current applications to potential needs should illustrate the primary importance of the ACD technologies.
