Applying LSCs to the Specification of an Air Traffic Control System

Yves Bontemps, Patrick Heymans, Hillel Kugler · 2003

We demonstrate the use of the language of Live Sequence Charts (LSCs) for specifying part of the air traffic control system CTAS (Center TRACON Automation System). We use a recent extension of LSCs to handle symbolic instances, allowing an instance to be associated with a class rather than with an object. This allows us to specify scenario-based requirements that could not have been expressed using concrete objects only. This work can form the basis for applying execution, verification and synthesis methods developed for LSCs, on a real-world case study.
