New concepts for automating air traffic management functions at small non-towered airports raise serious safety issues associated with the software implementations and their underlying key algorithms. The criticality of such software systems necessitates that strong guarantees of the safety be developed for them. In this paper we present a formal method for modeling and verifying such systems using the PVS theorem proving system. The method is demonstrated on a preliminary concept of operation for the Small Aircraft Transportation System (SATS) project at NASA Langley.Carrreno, Victor A. and Gottliebsen, Hanne and Butler, Ricky and Kalvala, SaraLangley Research CenterAIR TRAFFIC CONTROL; MATHEMATICAL MODELS; AIR TRANSPORTATION; AUTOMATIC CONTROL; GENERAL AVIATION AIRCRAFT; AIRPORTS; AIRSPACE; AIRCRAFT SPECIFICATIONS; TRAJECTORIES; COMPUTER PROGRAMS; THEOREM PROVING; PROGRAM VERIFICATION (COMPUTERS)

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on NASA Formal Methods, NFM 2016, held in Minneapolis, MN, USA, in June 2016. The 19 full and 10 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 70 submissions. The papers were organized in topical sections named: requirements and architectures; testing and run-time enforcement; theorem proving and proofs; application of formal methods; code generation and synthesis; model checking and verification; and correctness and certification.
