CaSSIS-Verif
CaSSIS-Verif - Towards Verified Flight Software for Future Mars Missions
|
Performing software verification in practice requires appropriately instrumenting the code at hand, invoking often complicated toolchains, and interpreting verification results. We seek to investigate semi-automation of this process in the context of mission-critical space software. We envision (i) appropriate abstractions and automation tools tailored to this challenging domain, as well as making steps towards (ii) integrating software verification into the development process of mission-critical space software.
This project will leverage expertise of the Planetary Imaging Group in the Space Research and Planetology Division of the Physikalisches Institut and the Software Engineering Group at the Institute of Computer Science, towards the verification of CaSSIS flight software. This is a goal that is highly interdisciplinary in nature, since expertise of both groups is involved.
