Virtual Symposium

-----------------

 

Due to concerns about COVID-19, NFM 2021 is going virtual. We invite

the formal methods and aligned communities to use this opportunity of

a virtual symposium to participate and engage in a very exciting set

of paper presentations and keynote talks.

 

 

Theme of the Symposium

----------------------

 

The widespread use and increasing complexity of mission-critical and

safety-critical systems at NASA and in the aerospace industry require

advanced techniques that address these systems' specification, design,

verification, validation, and certification requirements. The NASA

Formal Methods Symposium (NFM) is a forum to foster collaboration

between theoreticians and practitioners from NASA, academia, and

industry. NFM's goals are to identify challenges and to provide

solutions for achieving assurance for such critical systems.

 

New developments and emerging applications like autonomous software

for Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), UAS Traffic Management (UTM),

advanced separation assurance algorithms for aircraft, and the need

for system-wide fault detection, diagnosis, and prognostics provide

new challenges for system specification, development, and verification

approaches. Similar challenges need to be addressed during development

and deployment of on-board software for both spacecraft and ground

systems.

 

The focus of the symposium will be on formal techniques and other

approaches for software assurance, including their theory, current

capabilities and limitations, as well as their potential application

to aerospace, robotics, and other NASA-relevant safety-critical

systems during all stages of the software life-cycle.

 

The NASA Formal Methods Symposium is an annual event organized by the

NASA Formal Methods (NFM) Steering Committee, comprised of researchers

spanning several NASA centers. NFM 2021 is being organized by the NASA

Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA. More information about past

NFM Symposiums can be found here: https://shemesh.larc.nasa.gov/NFM.

 

 

Registration
