An Approach to the Verification of the Center-TRACON Automation System
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Center-TRACON Automation System (CTAS) is a collection of planning and control software functions that generate landing schedules and advisories to assist air traac controllers in handling traac in the en-route and terminal areas. In this paper, we propose a formal safety analysis methodology to determine the correctness of CTAS with respect to safety. Four large classes of safety notions are identiied for the CTAS problem: nominal, robust, structural and degraded. For nominal safety questions we seek conditions under which the system is guaranteed to be nominally safe.

Applying LSCs to the specification of an Air Traffic Control System
We demonstrate the use of the language of Live Sequence Charts (LSCs) for specifying part of the air traffic control system CTAS (Center TRACON Automation System). We use a recent extension of LSCs to handle symbolic instances, allowing an instance to be associated with a class rather than with an object. This allows us to specify scenario-based requirements that could not have been expressed u...
متن کاملFault Location in Active Distribution Networks Using Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm
To realize the self-healing concept of smart grids, an accurate and reliable fault locator is a prerequisite. This paper presents a new fault location method for active power distribution networks which is based on measured voltage sag and use of whale optimization algorithm (WOA). The fault induced voltage sag depends on the fault location and resistance. Therefore, the fault location can be f...

This paper proposes an advanced distribution automation planning problem in which emergency-based demand response plans are incorporated during service restoration process. The fitness function of this planning problem consists of various costs associated with fault occurrence in electric distribution systems consisting of the total yearly cost of customers’ interruptions, the total annualized ...
متن کاملA Hybrid Meta-heuristic Approach to Cope with State Space Explosion in Model Checking Technique for Deadlock Freeness
Model checking is an automatic technique for software verification through which all reachable states are generated from an initial state to finding errors and desirable patterns. In the model checking approach, the behavior and structure of system should be modeled. Graph transformation system is a graphical formal modeling language to specify and model the system. However, modeling of large s...
