Verification and Validation (V&V) Laboratory
CTAS as a research platform is continuously being improved. NASA and the FAA have installed prototype CTAS tools in several stages at air traffic control facilities serving the Dallas/Fort Worth airports. To support the use of CTAS at these field sites and confirm the functionality of the research software, NASA has developed a software release process to introduce new and improved CTAS functionality. As new CTAS functionality is developed in the Air Traffic Management Automation Laboratory (ATMAL), it is periodically captured and "downloaded" into the V&V Laboratory.

Air Traffic Control Simulation Laboratory
The ATMAL's ATC Simulation Laboratory, containing several air traffic control stations, has been created to provide air traffic controllers with the look and feel of an actual air traffic control facility. An air traffic simulator is used to create and “fly” the individual aircraft through the simulated airspace.
