Formal methods, and in particular sound static analyses, have been recognized by Certification Authorities as reliable methods to certify embedded avionics software. For sequential C software, industrial static analyzers, such as Astrée , already exist and are deployed. This is not the case for concurrent C software. This article discusses the requirements for sound static analysis of concurrent embedded software at Airbus and presents AstréeA , an extension of Astrée with the potential to address these requirements: it is scalable and reports soundly all run-time errors with few false posi-tives. We illustrate this potential on a variety of case studies targeting different avionics software components, including large ARINC 653 and POSIX threads applications, and a small part of an operating system. While the experiments on some case studies were conducted in an academic setting, others were conducted in an industrial setting by engineers, hinting at the maturity of our approach.
