A Case-study Application of Rtca Do-254: Design Assurance Guidance for Airborne Electronic Hardware
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a joint project with the FAA, NASA Langley is developing a hardware design in accordance with RTCA DO-254: Design Assurance Guidance for Airborne Electronic Hardware. The purpose of the case study is to gain understanding of the new guidance document and generate an example suitable for use in training. For the case study, we have selected a core subsystem of the Scalable Processor-Independent Design for Electromagnetic Resilience (SPIDER). SPIDER is a new fault-tolerant architecture under development at NASA Langley Research Center.
