Abstract
In this presentation we first discuss some of the challenges in building safety-critical systems that are increasingly software reliant and the need for formal analysis of system models discovering system-level problems earlier in the development. We then provide a summary of the capabilities of the SAE AADL standard suite, its application in industrial initiatives and research projects, as well as its relationship to other standards. We close the presentation with a case study of an international aircraft industry initiative called System Architecture Virtual Integration (SAVI).
