Participatory Architectural Change Management in ATM Systems (PACAS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2016, End date: Feb 28, 2018,

Air Traffic Management (ATM) systems are large systems-of-systems that are managed via multiple layers (e.g., operational, organizational, technical) to better handle their complexity. Due to their tight interdependencies, any change introduced in either of these layers triggers changes in other layers. As such, change management in ATM systems is a difficult task and requires to know the full imp ...
