Abstract

International audience; In a software development lifecycle, it is often more than half of the development time that is dedicated to verification activities. Formal methods offer new possibilities for verification. In the specification phase, simulation or model-checking allow users to detect errors in models. In the implementation phase, analysis techniques, like static analysis, make the verification tasks more exhaustive and more automatic. In this context, we propose to take advantage of these methods to improve embedded software development processes based on the V-model. Document type: Part of book or chapter of book

Abstract

International audience; The French Air Traffic Control is based on an automated system referred to as CAUTRA (Coordinateur AUtomatisé du Trafic Aérien). The CAUTRA is implemented on a distributed fault-tolerant computing system installed on five enroute traffic control centers and one centralized operating center, that are connected through an aeronautical telecommunication network. The CAUTRA mission is to provide computerized means for the safe and efficient movement of aircrafts. The main services provided are flight plans processing, radar data processing and air traffic flow management. Document type: Part of book or chapter of book
