The International Workshop on Planning and Scheduling for Space is the place to be for breakthroughs in AI-powered satellite operations — and this year, Domino-E is front and center.
With three scientific papers directly emerging from the project and two more featuring Domino-E researchers, the initiative is clearly influencing how we approach modular, intelligent, and scalable ground segment architectures for Earth observation.

Date: March 19, 2025, 10:30-12:00 CET Title: Understanding the Domino Architecture – A New Era of Earth Observation Speakers: Jean-François Vinuesa (ADS), Daniel Novak (ADS), Michael Anranter (Oikoplus) Hosts: Thomas Stollenwerk (Oikoplus), Michael Anranter (Oikoplus) The first session of the Domino-E webinar series commenced with a thorough exploration of the history, challenges, and innovations in…
Philippe Pavero, an engineer at Airbus Defence and Space, is part of the Mission Algorithms for Earth Observation team, focusing on optimizing satellite communications in the groundbreaking Domino-E project. He shares insights into how Domino’s scalable, cloud-based approach revolutionizes Earth observation and satellite communications, allowing more efficient data management and cost reduction. By linking multiple satellite constellations and ground stations, Domino-E enhances reactivity, making it a game-changer for space communication systems.
The Domino architecture is a groundbreaking approach in Earth observation, focused on standardizing ground segments for satellite missions. By introducing modular, autonomous components called “Dominos,” it simplifies system integration, reduces development time, and lowers costs. This innovative framework allows different companies, including SMEs, to specialize in creating specific, standardized modules that seamlessly fit together. Similar to how the USB standard transformed IT, Domino enables greater collaboration across the space industry, fostering efficiency and innovation in Earth observation projects.
Europe once again has independent access to space. Europe will also benefit from this in the area of Earth observation.
Domino-E contributes to the Domino architecture, creating a novel way of cooperation in European Earth observation. The Domino framework presents a groundbreaking approach to Earth observation (EO) by fostering a collaborative environment where industry and science work together throughout the entire development lifecycle, from initial concept to final validation of modular EO building blocks.…
ONERA’s Gauthier Picard presented his work at the AAMAS’24 in Auckland, New Zealand. Agent-based and multi-agent systems (MAS) in space offer a promising approach for modeling and solving distributed, complex and dynamic problems. Sample applications include multiple spacecraft operations and maintenance, onboard-ground coordination, mission simulation, multi-mission operation, autonomous navigation, and collective robotics. The Domino-E project…
The 3,5-year project EnergyMeasures is wrapping up in Brussels. The EU-funded project was launched to identify households affected by energy poverty, to develop strategies that would support them in adopting less energy-intensive behaviours, and to provide decision-makers of all levels with evidence-based policy recommendations to tackle energy poverty. As the project winds down, one of the key conclusions was to…
