The Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) is now a dominant strategy in military procurements. L3Harris is now using MOSA to win new defense programs that break down legacy stovepipe system architectures with their dedicated supply chains and is replacing these systems with standards-based hardware a...

A major challenge for an avionics software integrator is certifying their avionics systems to meet FAA certification standards such as DO-178C Design Assurance Level (DAL) A. The certification process can be very expensive and time-consuming. Having the capability to port safety-certified software f...

Given the complexity involved, integrating global and local simulation and training systems is difficult under the best of circumstances. For starters, legacy simulators use different standards for data, voice and video. In addition, modern architectures demand the use of cloud-based and distributed...

One of the keys to the success of the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) is that it was developed by aligning with current open standards and open systems architectures, including HOST, REDHAWK, MORA, OpenVPX, and similar specifications. The SOSA Consortium also works closely with such standard...

The pace of design in the automotive sector has picked up considerably, in just about every segment—from mission-critical engine control to the infotainment subsystem and everything in between. At the Automotive Technologies Virtual Conference, you’ll hear from experts that can cover five key areas...

Vehicle architectures, driven by autonomy and increased connectivity, are becoming more centralized, which creates new cybersecurity challenges at the vehicle and ECU levels. In this talk, we will introduce the foundations of automotive security and current domain & zonal architectures; then we will...

The performance and capability of modern vehicle electronics (vetronics); radar; electronic warfare; avionics; and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) systems are enabled by commercial processors and FPGAs – all of which generate lots of heat. These systems must also survive in extr...
