Creating a new System-on-Chip (SoC) for streaming video with a MPEG application requires a number of decisions to be made before development is scheduled. The design would have some amount of existing hardware and software components in the SoC. The new application such as H.264 application will have some known and mostly unknown characteristics. These […]

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 […]
