Efficient execution is key to real-time mission-critical operating systems software, yet new demands are emerging such as safety-critical operations for avionics and other life-critical applications.

The demo features L3Harris’s FliteScene® Digital Moving Map Software, Green Hills Software INTEGRITY-178® tuMP RTOS, and Curtiss-Wright Single Board Computers and Graphics Modules.

Demo highlights DO-178 safety-certifiable VxWorks® 653 3.0.1.1 RTOS on Curtiss-Wright VPX3-152 SBC and graphics modules and cost-effective development path

Green Hills Software’s field-proven INTEGRITY-178 tuMP safety- and security-critical multi-core real-time operating system (RTOS) will be demonstrated for the first time running on the Curtiss-Wright VPX3-1703.

Bringing the benefits of multicore processors to safety-critical systems is challenging. Read how Curtiss-Wright and Green Hills Software are up to the challenge.

Rick Hearn explains how the key computing elements of an avionics system must all be designed with safety in mind and endure stringent testing to prove they can meet the required Design Assurance Level (DAL).

Support for Green Hills Software’s INTEGRITY-178 tuMP RTOS and CoreAVI’s graphics drivers on Curtiss-Wright rugged modules speeds the integration of high-performance avionics systems

Given its complexity and the critical applications for which it is designed, embedded avionics software must undergo a rigorous approval and testing process before it can be approved as airworthy.

With the wide adoption of FACE, system integrators can reap tremendous benefits in interoperability and cost.

Low-power Arm-based VPX3-1703 joins Curtiss-Wright’s family of Intel® and Power Architecture® SBCs and expands support for Green Hills Software® INTEGRITY®-178 tuMP Safety-Certifiable RTOS.
