Fly-By-Wire Flight Control Computer (FCC) |
MSS was selected by Thales in the 2nd quarter of 2009 to assist with the systems and software verification for Thales’ fly-by-wire flight control computer. Aggressive program schedules to deliver a system for first flight in 2009 resulted in MSS personnel working multiple verification work packages both on-site and within MSS engineering offices. MSS contributions for the Safety of Flight clearance include:
- High-level verification of system and high-level software requirements on a closed loop integration bench
- High-level software requirements verification including the verification of hardware/software interfaces
- Test vector verification of the FCC control laws
- Review of high-level software requirements to the program system specifications.
