Abstract :
Considers some scale-up problems and issues in applying a rate monotonic analysis (RMA) to a large, distributed air traffic control system: the Federal Aviation Administration´s Advanced Automation System (AAS). The preliminary results of this analysis have been very positive, and have identified a number of potential performance issues early in its life cycle that could be easily corrected long before the system is to be used for air traffic control
