Patent number: 9996481Abstract: A system, a method and a computer program product for managing memory access of an avionics control system having at least one control computer having at least one memory control device. The method includes assigning a memory access of at least one unique memory region of at least one memory unit to each of at least one application task or task set. A memory access of at least one application data update task is assigned to at least one subregion of one or more of the at least one unique memory region. At least one data parameter is written to the at least one subregion and the assigned memory access of the at least one application data update task de-activated.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2012Date of Patent: June 12, 2018Assignee: SAAB ABInventors: Torkel Danielsson, Jan Håkegård, Anders Gripsborn, Björn Hasselqvist

Publication number: 20140157041Abstract: The present invention relates to a distributed avionics system (100, 500) having a plurality of computer nodes arranged to execute a plurality of partitions/applications (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6). The distributed avionics system comprises reconfiguration means (332) arranged to reconfigure the distributed avionics system upon detection of failure in at least one of the computer nodes. Each partition/application is associated to a application/partition availability level. The reconfiguration means are arranged to reconfigure the distributed avionics system based on the partition/application availability levels of the partition/applications (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6). The present invention further relates to a method for back-up handling in a distributed avionics system having a plurality of computer nodes (A, B, C).Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2011Publication date: June 5, 2014Applicant: SAAB ABInventors: Torkel Danielsson, Jan Håkegård, Anders Gripsborn
