New Challenges for Future Avionic Architectures
نویسنده
چکیده
Electronic sets operated on aircraft are usually summarized as “avionic architectures” (for “aviation electronic architecture”). Since the 70s, avionic architectures, composed of digital processing modules and communication buses, are supporting more and more avionic applications such as flight control, flight management, etc. Hence, avionic architectures have become a central component of an aircraft. They have to ensure a large variety of important requirements: safety, robustness to equipment failures, determinism, and real-time.

Distributed Fault-Tolerant Avionic Systems - A Real-Time Perspective
This paper examines the problem of introducing advanced forms of fault-tolerance via reconfiguration into safety-critical avionic systems. This is required to enable increased availability after fault occurrence in distributed integrated avionic systems (compared to static federated systems). The approach taken is to identify a migration path from current architectures to those that incorporate...

Integrated modular avionics architectures combined with the emerging SAE TTEthernet standard provides a strong infrastructure for the deployment of mixed-critical avionic applications having stringent safety, reliability and performance requirements. The integration of such systems is a very complex and challenging engineering task. Therefore, a model-based approach, which endows system enginee...
متن کاملFormal Safety and Security Assessment of an Avionic Architecture with Alloy
We propose an approach based on Alloy to formally model and assess a system architecture with respect to safety and security requirements. We illustrate this approach by considering as a case study an avionic system developed by Thales, which provides guidance to aircraft. We show how to define in Alloy a metamodel of avionic architectures with a focus on failure propagations. We then express t...
متن کاملAppropriate Multi-core Architecture for Safety-critical Aerospace Applications - Certifiable Real-time Switching Network
The continues improvement of aircraft’s as well as the steady optimization of the overall air traffic during the last decade increased the demand for processing power in the aircraft and on ground, simultaneously. Typical improvements include (1) the Fly-by-wire systems, where hydraulic systems are partly replaced by electrical components and electronic platforms with software performing the av...
