Importance of Testing Test Automation and Automated Test Equipment
Posted by: Suhas H N | 22 June, 2020
Testing is one of the major activities in a development life cycle of a product. Automation of testing will help reducing manual intervention and increasing the productivity. Automated Test Equipment (ATE) helps in automating the testing of the system/LRU during development and production. ATE’s can be a simple bench top setup or a set of test equipment....Read More
Obtaining Structural Coverage from HSIT
Posted by: Sandeepkumar Ainapur | 10 Feb, 2020
Traditionally, the software tests are performed at different levels to achieve the DO-178B/C objectives. The Hardware-Software Integration tests (HSIT) are performed to get the High-Level Requirements coverage and Low-Level Requirement tests are performed to get the Low-Level requirements coverage and the structural coverage at the source code level....Read More

Posted by: Rohan S Rao | 6 Dec, 2019
Software development using Agile methodology is one of the software development methodologies based on iterative development, where the requirements and code evolve through collaboration between self-organizing cross-functional teams. This paper can help you to use Scrum process even when the team is geographically dispersed....Read More
Module Testing Quality Improvement Measures - A case study
Posted by: Bhupesh Balan | 20 Nov, 2019
The project objective was to update and validate module tests impacted by the modified design or Low-Level Requirements (LLRs). During this activity quality issues were identified which were present in the original tests done before 2006. This case study highlights the measures taken to overcome the quality issues....Read More
Optimized Code for Embedded Avionics Applications
Posted by: Hari Lakshminarayanan | 10 Mar, 2021
Running optimized code in embedded application is very important from different angles – achieving higher throughput, better memory utilization, lower power consumption and allowing scalability, among others. With advancements in processor technology, newer processors are constantly being rolled out. It would not be economically viable to keep porting application software into newer processors to take advantage of the newer technology. Hence it is vital to extract the best out of the currently selected hardware. ....Read More
DO-178C-PDI
Posted by: Madhuchandra Srinivas | 19 Mar, 2021
The use of a Parameter Data Item impacts various processes as described in DO-178C.A Parameter Data Item is a separate configuration item, that influences the behaviour of the software without modifying the Executable Object Code. A Parameter data item provides a flexible, yet controlled, way to configure and reconfigure the system......Read More
Navigation and Traffic Management in UAV
Posted by: Rakesh Nayak, Hari Lakshminarayanan | 08 June, 2021
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) are arguably the Aviation Industry’s one of the most exciting and promising developments. The expectations of UAS capabilities are boundless, but their safe implementation and integration to regulated airspace needs more supervision and support. UAV, UAS, RPAS (Remotely Piloted Aircraft System) are all terms that are often used interchangeably.......Read More

Software Design FMEA for Functional Safety Systems
Posted by: Appala Naidu Bandaru | 6 Feb, 2020
Functional safety is important for safety critical applications in any industry where active monitoring is required on safety critical operations. The active monitors either prevents or mitigates the failure that causes safety goal violations of the system. The failures are categorised as Systematic failures and Random hardware failures....Read More
EMBEDDED SYSTEM SECURITY
Posted by: Gopu | 10 Mar, 2021
World is moving towards the age of fully autonomous environment where things need to be done faster and without much influence of human, which increases the use of embedded systems in all domains. Embedded systems are the driving force for technological development in many domains. Security has traditionally been a subject in the area of networking. However, security of embedded systems is often ignored during the design and development period of the product, thus leaving many devices vulnerable to attacks.....Read More
OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION
Posted by: ALTEN Global Digital Technology Team | 19 Mar, 2021
In this digital day and age, it has become obligatory to have all the available information in a digital form recognized by machines. In a country like India, where there is abundance of information in the form of manuscripts, ancient textbooks etc that are traditionally available in printed/handwritten form, such material is inadequate when it comes to searching information among thousands of pages. ....
