This Festschrift, dedicated to Bengt Jonsson on the occasion of his 60th birthday, contains papers written by many of his friends and collaborators. Bengt has made major contributions covering a wide range of topics including verification and learning. His works on verification, in finite state systems, learning, testing, probabilistic systems, timed systems, and distributed systems reflect both the diversity and the depth of his research. Besides being an excellent scientist, Bengt is also a leader who has greatly influenced the careers of both his students and his colleagues. His main focus throughout his career has been in the area of formal methods, and the research papers dedicated to him in this volume address related topics, particularly related to model checking, temporal logic, and automata learning.

This book investigates Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) with a payload capacity of one metric ton for transportation. The authors provide a large variety of perspectives–from economics to technical realization. With the focus on such heavy-lift cargo UAS, the authors consider recently established methods for approval and certification, which they expect to be disruptive for unmanned aviation. In particular, the Specific Operations Risk Assessment (SORA) and its impact on the presented technological solutions and operational concepts are studied. Starting with the assumption of an operation over sparsely populated areas and below common air traffic, diverse measures to further reduce operational risks are proposed. Operational concepts derived from logistics use-cases set the context for an in-depth analysis including aircraft and system design, safe autonomy as well as airspace integration and datalinks. Results from simulations and technology demonstrations are presented as a proof of concept for solutions proposed in this book.
