Abstract:
Ensuring correctness of a complex distributed and mode-rich collaborative satellite system is a challenging task that requires formal modeling and verification. In this paper, we propose a model of a distributed Attitude and Orbit Control System. Mode transitions in such systems are governed by a sophisticated synchronization procedure. We demonstrate how to model and verify such a procedure in order to ensure mode consistency.
