About this title

Synopsis

Future robotic space missions suggest the engineering of some of the most complex man-rated autonomous software systems. Time and concurrency are the most critical notions in an autonomous embedded system. In this work we present the design and implementation of the first concurrency and time centered framework for design and certification of autonomous space systems. We achieve this by implementing and applying a number of innovative techniques for lock-free concurrent synchronization and utilizing advanced program static analysis and formal verification.
