Bangalore based Mistral Solutions has announced that it has enabled the implementation of the first ARINC 653 RTOS for civilian aircraft in India.
Its first customer is an unnamed Indian government owned aerospace that has acquired Wind River’s Platform for Safety Critical ARINC 653. This marks the beginning of a new era of commercial aviation in India.
New developments in hardware in the fledgling domestic aviation industry have warranted the need for enabling multiple applications to share a single processor and memory. This means that the execution time and memory space of each application needed to be protected from other applications in the system in order to guarantee that one cannot bring down another in the event of an application failure.
ARINC 653 is a standard for partitioning of computer resources in the time and space domains. The standard also specifies APIs for abstraction of the application from the underlying hardware and software and defines a standard interface between avionics application software and Real Time Operating System (RTOS).
