‡This paper describes the differences between a data-centered and an algorithmic design model as it applies to air traffic management software. An example of converting an existing algorithmic software baseline to a data-centric model is discussed. Using the data-centric model, a proof of concept flight deviation tool was developed. The deviation tool received inputs from a real-time data manager and a third party database to supply a list of aircraft identified as off their assigned flight path. The results were displayed using a standard web browser. From the development of this prototype it was determined that the use of a database should be coupled with a data manager to ensure a timely interaction with the data.
