Abstract
This paper describes Silver Software’s experience in carrying out the software development for the landing gear system for a major new airliner. We hope this paper will be of interest, for a number of reasons:
-
The landing gear is one of the most safety-critical systems on the aircraft
-
This aircraft uses Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA)
-
Much of the work was carried out at our software development centre in Bangalore, India (in particular, development of the Level C software and verification of the Level A software)
