The main part of the presentation was the description of the tools that were developed to assist in the certification process. The use of these tools allowed the actual auditing to be performed in 2 days (compared to 2 weeks of auditing of Aonix's C-SMART certification materials when they were paper based). Due to the FAA requirements, those tools had to be qualified. Particularly important, was the developed requirements database and associated tool (VeroTrace), which allowed to maintain the traceability of all the certification process, and to generate XML tagged files for all the documents necessary for the certification process. One interesting point was that it was necessary to maintain a record of all review comments, even those that had already been addressed (some of them were side comments in the paper documents). Another tool, VeroCode, performed the verification of the object code, allowing to decrease the effort of coverage analysis (if only short circuit operations are used as in VxWorks). The experience was that, by using short circuit operations,
