The integration of multicore and multi-system architectures, which often include diverse elements like Systems on Chip (SoC) introduces significant testing challenges for avionics systems.
Understanding the behavior of these systems and establishing comprehensive testing protocols is complex. Traditional testing methods, designed for single-core environments, are inadequate for ensuring the accuracy and performance of multicore systems. These challenges are further complicated by issues such as data coupling and control coupling, safety-critical timing analysis for multicore setups, the need for deterministic behavior, and the demand for extensive coverage testing.
The latest guidelines under A(M)C20-193, which have replaced CAST-32A, address these complexities. To effectively test and verify these systems, a deep understanding of both the hardware and software components involved is essential.
In this webinar, we will address three multicore-related questions that not only highlight the unique aspects of each company's multicore technologies but also demonstrate how they work together. We will also present each company's perspective on key aspects of the multicore certification process based upon their areas of expertise.
- In your part of the stack/mosaic of the multicore certification, what are the most important features to handle interferences?
- How are your solutions playing together with the other 3 companies?
- What is your company's perspective on key aspects of the multicore certification process based upon your areas of expertise?
Olivier Joined Wind River in June 2001 where he held several roles with a strong focus on functional safety in the Aerospace & Defence market.
In the same timeframe he joined the SAE/ARINC APEX Software Subcommittee to participate in the elaboration of the ARINC 653 standard.
Since January 2017 Olivier has extended his scope to other markets, like Railway, Nuclear, Medical and Automotive, becoming Wind River’s Functional Safety Specialist worldwide.
In 2021, Olivier joined the Linux Foundation’ s ELISA Project (Enabling Linux In Safety Applications) and recently became one of its Ambassadors.
His expertise spans real-time kernels, distributed systems, and correct-by-design methodologies, with a particular emphasis on development tools for safety-critical applications (CEI60880, DO178C, IEC61508). In 2011, Damien co-founded KRONO-SAFE, which was acquired by Safran Electronics & Defense in 2023.
As the Innovation & Strategy leader at Asterios Technology, Damien drives business development, manages strategic partnerships, and represents the company at the highest levels. His visionary approach and strategic acumen have been instrumental in positioning Asterios Technology as a pioneer in real-time systems integration, leveraging a groundbreaking correct-by-construction methodology.
