Just like consumer markets, advances in semiconductor have considerable influence on modern avionics architectures. Migration from Federated Architecture to an Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) leads to sharing complexity, single point of failure, and great resource management effort. Federated Architecture makes use of networked hardware and software components to realize a set of applications. The concept […]

Real-time constraints, reconfigurability and safety have a direct impact on architecture design and on the validation/certification process, at the aircraft and system level. Current certification of Integrated Modular Architecture (IMA) avionics using network calculus cannot accurately predict communication and processing latency. Here is a solution for IMA-based avionics to generate certification tests, conduct what-if analysis, […]

Incremental Designs are common and highly practiced approach in every avionics system design process. Designing a new system from ground-up is prone to multiple issues right from technical to overall cost required. Even a minor up gradation of application software may cause huge impact on the overall system performance and power consumption. Predicting system performance […]
