Summary 1 August 2017 4th International Conference «Prospects of Civil Avionics Development» July 20 within the frame of MAKS-2017 Air Show was held 4th International conference dedicated to the latest technical solutions in the field of next-generation highly integrated commercial avionics and general aircraft systems based on distributed modular electronics (DME). As usual, the Conference took place in TSAGI Scientists Club (Zhukovsky, Moscow region) close to MAKS-2017 event (airfield). In detail... News 26 March 2018 It’s time: avionics need to move to multicore processors A majority of avionics today are running on single-core processors, or multicore processors with all but one core disabled. It’s time for a change and a move to multicore for modern avionics. There’s less uncertainty surrounding multicore today vs. in the past. Industry’s comfort level around multicore is improving. However, closer cooperation between all stakeholders is a necessity. As a result, certification authorities are further along, SW and HW companies are sharing information, and simple multicore designs are going through certifications. *In detail...* 2 February 2018 Four commercial trends hitting aviation in 2018 Flight delays and cancellations from unplanned maintenance cost airlines around the world billions of dollars every year — not to mention the negative impact on customer satisfaction. The need to cut maintenance, repair and overhaul costs is a pressing issue for airlines. How can airlines keep aircraft in the air while reducing maintenance, repair and overhaul costs? Four major technological developments can help airlines meet these challenges and produce significant benefits across the commercial aviation industry through 2018. *In detail...* 28 December 2017 Aircraft interface devices: onboard data cruncher, EFB extender AIDs can provide many benefits to operators, including cost savings, reduced fuel burn and efficiency, and important safety features. EFBs are now more than just reference tools. This technology pushes the aviation industry closer to a more integrated and smarter cockpit in which pilots can make informed decisions based on accurate information and analysis. However, it future lies with the software applications currently available and yet to be developed. *In detail...* 8 December 2017 The pace of change The airline industry is in a revolution of sorts as it is ever changing away from the use of paper. This is especially true in the cockpit where manuals, flight plans, maps and charts are all becoming electronic and paperless. The advent of the iPad and other tablets has made this change even more rapid because of the ever-lowering cost of the hardware, which is called an Electronic Flight Bag. However, while tablet EFBs have made enormous strides, there are limits to what these tablets can accomplish or be legally allowed to execute. *In detail...* 24 November 2017 New approaches to developing avionics software New embedded technologies and initiatives being deployed across the commercial and military segments of aviation are enabling new approaches to developing avionics software. New development tool suites are designed to reduce the time required for testing and certifying the overall application code base. A key elements is the FACE technical standard, which provides requirements for constructing avionics SW, and the BALSA consortium, where programmers can verify their code without dealing with the complexity of a full avionics system. *In detail...* 26 October 2017 Inside the next generation of business jet avionics The next generation of business aircraft avionics will increasingly become software intensive and flying with central networks. The new concept of an airplane central network is that it goes beyond just allowing many systems to talk on the same bus. Instead of just carrying information, it can actually perform functions. And although the world’s largest business aviation OEMs have improved their ability to include non-volatile memory capture or issue capture capabilities, improving reliability of the software has to be a focus. *In detail...* 28 September 2017 Glass screens & widgets unseen While ARINC 661 offers the possibility of interactive cockpit display system interface standardization, it’s not yet the industry standard. However, ARINC 661 ensures that the full cockpit display system interactively behaves with the avionics systems in the same manner, regardless of user applications developer and CDS supplier. In addition, any standardization of features for enhanced functionality is a great plus in providing a design standard to work to and a definition. But there is an alternative approach. *In detail...* 12 September 2017 Garmin to offer new app capabilities for Android, iOS, fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters The newest version of popular software for pilots will allow Android device owners to access the synthetic vision, as well as pilot-configurable checklists within the application, and Apple device owners will not only take advantage of weight and balance calculations tailored to helicopter operators, but also to plan search and rescue operations. The application on both platforms now also has some other interesting features. *In detail...* 11 August 2017 Green Hills Software to provide real-time multicore OS to next-generation nav The multiprocessor systems-on-chips Zynq Ultrascale+ of the famous American developer and manufacturer Xilinx offer new opportunities in reducing the size, weight and power consumption of the next generation navigation equipment. However, to achieve these objectives across the variety of multicore parts available today, the Integrity-178 time-variant unified multiprocessing operating system must provide advanced functionality. *In detail...* Partners JSC «UAC» JSC «Aircraft Engineering Concern» AR IAC JSC «Corporation «Irkut» CJSC «SCAC» JSC «A.S.Yakovlev Design Bureau» Thales General Electric Sysgo WindRiver Marinvent Elbit Systems Subcontractors FSUE «SPb EDB «Elektroavtomatika» FSUE «FRC» JSC «RDC» CJSC «Kotlin-Novator» JSC «SDB CS» CJSC «VNIIRA-Navigator» JCS «SPE «Polyot» JSC «MRPC «Avionica» CJSC «Transas Avia» JCS «Aeropribor-Voskhod» JSC «DKBA» JSC «ELARA» JSC «NIIAO» FSUE «RSIE» JSC «ADB «Yakor» ISP RAS JSC «Corporation Russian Systems» Support of the State Search on the project © 2018 State Research Institute of Aviation Systems.
