Phoenix, AZ – April 14, 2025. DDC-I, a leading supplier of software and professional services for mission- and safety-critical applications, today announced that it will present at the Uncrewed Systems Virtual Conference on April 15, 2025. DDC-I’s vice president of marketing, Gary Gilliland, will host Session 4 – a free, one-hour session on Navigating Safety Certification in UAS Platforms, which will be held this Tuesday at 2:15 PM EST.
The Uncrewed Systems Virtual Conference, powered by Military Embedded Systems, is designed to drive awareness and thought leadership around embedded electronics technology for autonomous systems from artificial intelligence (AI) to data security to sensor processing to avionics safety certification; it will also examine strategies for applying a modular open systems approach (MOSA) in such designs.

“Deos™ utilizes the latest DO-178C Design Assurance Level A (DAL A), FACE® conformant, multi-core verified baseline, and was built from the ground up with a modular architecture and standard interfaces that emphasize portability, scalability, reuse, and streamlined safety certification” said Gary Gilliland, Vice President of Marketing at DDC-I. “We look forward to sharing our world class, safety-critical technology at the Uncrewed Systems Virtual Summit and helping attendees understand the challenges and nuances of the certification process for both commercial and military UAS systems.”
About Deos
Deos is a safety-critical real-time operating system. First certified to DO-178 DAL A in 1998, Deos combines DO-178C DAL A artifacts with FACE® Technical Standard support that encompasses the Safety Base and Safety Extended Profiles for the Operating System Segment (OSS). The Safety Profiles feature hard real-time response, time and space partitioning, and both ARINC-653 and POSIX interfaces.
SafeMC™ technology extends Deos’ advanced capabilities to multiple cores, enabling developers of safety-critical systems to achieve best in class multi-core performance without compromising safety-critical task response and guaranteed execution time. SafeMC employs a bounded multiprocessing (BMP) extension of the symmetric multiprocessing architecture (SMP), safe scheduling, and cache partitioning to minimize cross-core contention and interference patterns that affect the performance, safety criticality and certifiability of multi-core systems. These features enable avionics systems developers to address issues that could impact the safety, performance and integrity of a software airborne system executing on Multi-Core Processors (MCP), as specified by the FAA Advisory Circular AC 20-193.
