Software Composability and Mixed Criticality for Triple Modular Redundant Architectures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Composability and mixed criticality are concepts that promise an ease of development and certification for safety critical systems in all industrial domains. In this paper we define the necessary requirements, highlight issues and classify fault containment, when extending already existing triple modular redundant architectures with these concepts. We evaluate the needed adaptations and extensions of triplication mechanisms with respect to the required safety properties. Finally, we suggest novel architectures for serving triplicated modular redundant applications and compare them to the previously presented solutions.

متن کاملTTEthernet for Integrated Spacecraft Networks
Aerospace projects have traditionally employed federated avionics architectures, in which each computer system is designed to perform one specific function (e.g. navigation). There are obvious downsides to this approach, including excessive weight (from so much computing hardware), and inefficient processor utilization (since modern processors are capable of performing multiple tasks). There ha...
