Description
The presentation will target the utilization of additional synchronous, time-triggered Ethernet quality-of service (QoS) enhancements in IEEE802 Ethernet and ARINC664 networks to support both bandwidth time-partitioning and system-wide (or system-level) time-partitioning. Ethernet-based system architectures with time-driven communication capabilities enable tight control of jitter and strict determinism with far reaching consequences on embedded system virtualization, architecture design and optimization in spacecraft avionics. Extended embedded virtualization capabilities with time-partitioning of distributed embedded resources support design of new optimized generic integrated architectures, which are less complex to integrate, maintain, expand, reconfigure, certify, and modernize. Such generic architectures leading to cross industry platforms and therefore, not only through the availability of development-, flight-components and COTS testing equipment, a significant reduction of lifecycle costs can be achieved.
