    The future of aerospace software engineering

    Security in Aerospace Software Engineering


    Much has changed since the first powered flight over 120 years ago. Complex calculations and processes are now carried out automatically in fractions of a second. We trust that the software in aircrafts, drones and space crafts works flawlessly as it forms the basis for sometimes vital decisions.

    Especially, the constant further development of unmanned aircraft and drones and the use of real-time data lead to more and more detailed programming. Even the smallest changes in the code must ensure that there is no negative effect to the highly complex architecture. Because security comes first.

    Meet Tough Requirements, Quality Guidelines and Custom Coding Rules to Develop Safe Airborne Systems

    There are few other industries in which the expectations for safety and reliability of software are as high as in the aviation, aerospace and defense industry. Therefore, when implementing software, strict safety standards and protocols, such as DO-178C, DO-278A and DO-330 compliance, are followed to ensure systematic, uniform and correct implementation. In addition, many companies have developed standards and quality guidelines that are even stricter than the legal requirements. The necessary manual verification of compliance with these coding guidelines is very time-consuming and error-prone – something that is unacceptable in in this environment.

    Being highly customizable, Axivion Architecture Verification and Axivion Static Code Analysis will help you overcome these challenges: Your custom coding guidelines can easily be added to regular checks via a graphical user interface. It allows you to integrate and configure your rules as needed and the results of your custom coding rules checks will become part of the regular reporting. The seamless integrate into your IDE and CI environment means you have full control over the entire process.

    Your Tool for Reliable Aerospace Software Engineering

    Axivion helps you to maintain highest software quality by offering advanced architecture analysis and static code analysis functionality. It allows you to provide maintainability, expandability as well as the understandability and readability of the software - even in an environment with strict safety regulations.
    Automated checks at an early stage in your development help you detect and easily fix issues such as:

    Clones

    Cycles

    Dead or unreachable code

     

    Software Erosion - also known as technical debt - has a considerable impact on your code quality. The earlier you stop it, the longer your software will last. Preventing Software Erosion keeps your code clean and maintainable - thus save costs and possibly even lives.
