NASA ANNOUNCES GEORGIA AERONAUTICS RESEARCH AWARD
NASA's Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate, Aviation Safety
Program, Washington, has awarded approximately $300,000 to Georgia
Institute of Technology, Atlanta, for work described in their NASA
research announcement proposal entitled "Hierarchical Component-Based
Framework for the Formal Verification and Validation of Complex
Aerospace Software Systems."
The award will foster close collaboration with and facilitate the
exchange of ideas and information among researchers at NASA, industry,
academia, and other government agencies to benefit the nation's
aeronautics community.
The Aviation Safety Program conducts cutting-edge research dedicated to
improving the safety of current and future aircraft operating in the
National Airspace System. The research focus is on the way vehicles are
designed, built, operated, and maintained. Scientists and engineers in
this program develop principles, guidelines, concepts, tools, methods,
and technologies to address four areas: Aircraft Aging and Durability,
Integrated Intelligent Flight Deck Technologies, Integrated Vehicle
Health Management, and Integrated Resilient Aircraft Control.
