Description
Summary:Next to new materials and structures, the introduction of advanced electronics systems has a key impact on the performance, flight characteristics and operability of new air and space vehicles. Mechanical and hydraulic components and subsystems are increasingly being replaced or at least further supported by electrical and electronic components. All these elements rely on on-board controllers and computers, at the core of which is their embedded software. The impact of embedded elements will continue to increase steadily, while they are already allowing breaking through the performance limitations of traditional flight control and communication systems
