A flight simulation software for flight mechanics education
AIAA Atmospheric Flight Mechanics Conference and Exhibit, 2001In this study, a flight simulation software is designed and coded for the purpose of flight mechanics education. This simulation software is intended to be used as a tool in the flight mechanics courses that helps the students to learn and understand the flight mechanics principles more easily and better.

Architectural Design Patterns for Flight Software
2011 14th IEEE International Symposium on Object/Component/Service-Oriented Real-Time Distributed Computing Workshops, 2011Software design patterns are best practice solutions to common software design problems. When they are properly applied, software design patterns can greatly improve the quality of software architectures. However, applying design patterns in practice can be difficult since design pattern descriptions are domain and platform independent.

Crashproof codes [flight software
IEEE Spectrum, 2004Boeing Co. and NASA have joined forces for the Active Aeroelastic Wing (AAW) Project to test the way a modified F/A-18 strike fighter uses its wings. The AAW was designed to be flexible enough to be twisted on demand in flight and it could herald nothing less than a revolution in aviation.

DevOps for Spacecraft Flight Software
2019 IEEE Aerospace Conference, 2019The NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART)mission, led by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHU/APL), will be the first ever space mission to demonstrate asteroid deflection by a kinetic impactor. The DART flight software team recognizes that meeting this challenge, especially within cost and schedule constraints, requires ...

Proceedings of the 3rd IEEE/ACM/IFIP international conference on Hardware/software codesign and system synthesis, 2005
No two flight missions are alike, hence, development and on-orbit software costs are high. Software portability and adaptability across hardware platforms and operating systems has been minimal at best. Standard interfaces across applications and/or common applications are almost non-existent.

Virtual insect flight simulator (VIFS): a software testbed for insect flight
Proceedings 2001 ICRA. IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (Cat. No.01CH37164), 2002Presents the design of the software simulator, VIFS, for insect flight. In particular, it is intended to estimate flight control algorithms and performance for a micromechanical flying insect (MFI), a 10-25 mm (wingtip-to-wingtip) device eventually capable of sustained autonomous flight. The VIFS is an end-to-end tool composed of several modular blocks

Aspects of Flight Control Software - A Software Engineering Point of View
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1999Abstract This contribution reports on some aspects of flight control software. Experience as gained from an actual implementation of control laws in Ada is given. The influence of the chosen programming language, the specification of (parts of) the requirements, principles of the software design, and the concept of tests in various environments are ...

Overview of Flight and Ground Software
2009To provide a context for later chapters, this chapter presents brief summaries of the responsibilities and functionalities of traditional ground and flight systems as viewed from the framework of a total system process, followed by highlights of the key drivers when making flight-ground trades.

An Overview of the Mars Exploration Rovers' Flight Software
2005 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, 2006The Mars exploration rovers (MER) flight software (FSW) is possibly the most complex software implementation to be deployed on another planet. The requirements dictated a software system that addressed four distinct mission phases (cruise, landing, egress, and surface) and the mission demanded a system with significant autonomy.
