Abstract: . We describe a recent NASA-sponsored pilot project intended to gauge the effectiveness of using formal methods in Space Shuttle software requirements analysis. Several Change Requests (CRs) were selected as promising targets to demonstrate the utility of formal methods in this demanding application domain. A CR to add new navigation capabilities to the Shuttle, based on Global Positioning System (GPS) technology, is the focus of this industrial usage report. Portions of the GPS CR were modeled ...

...SRI, and V iGYAN. Portions of the Space Shuttle flight control requirements and change requests have formalized and analyzed [25, 18, 24, 17, 19]. At Langley, NASA researchers continued work on refining the fault tolerant architecture developed earlier by specifying lower...
