BOOTH # 1
Phoenix, AZ – October 16, 2024. DDC-I, a leading supplier of software and professional services for mission- and safety-critical applications, today announced that it will showcase its safety-critical DO-178C Deos™ real-time operating system (RTOS) and development tools at the High Integrity Software Conference (HISC), which will be held at the International Convention Center in Wales, UK on October 22, 2024.
The mission of HISC is to share challenges, best practices, and experiences between software engineering practitioners. The conference features talks from industrial and academic specialists, which will disseminate experience and knowledge of important techniques and methods that are applicable across industry sectors.
“DDC-I has been at the forefront of DO-178C and FACE® safety-critical technology development, standardization, verification, and certification, with an emphasis on multi-core,” said Gary Gilliland, vice president of marketing at DDC-I. “Deos was built from the ground up with a modular architecture and standard interfaces that emphasize portability, scalability and reuse, enabling designers to reconfigure their systems with minimal impact on hardware, software and DO-178 certification.”
The Deos RTOS provides the foundation for safety critical platforms, employing patented cache partitioning, memory pools, and safe scheduling to deliver higher multi-core CPU utilization than any other certifiable safety-critical COTS RTOS. First certified to DO-178 DAL A in 1998, Deos provides FACE® Conformant Safety Base and Safety Extended Operating System Segment (OSS) Profiles that feature hard real-time response, time and space partitioning, Rate Monotonic, 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 and EASA Acceptable Means of Conformance AMC-20-193.
