Abstract: The electronic system includes of a plurality of electronic equipment and devices (6) and a network for communication (8) between equipment units, each equipment unit (6) having the ability to be integrated into the electronic system or removed from the electronic system, each equipment unit (6) being provided with a radio tag (20) having an electronic circuit (22) containing a memory (24) capable of storing data in electronic form, including identification data for the equipment unit (6) and a radio antenna (26) for exchanging data with the electronic circuit (22). Each equipment unit (6) includes an internal communication device (32) integrated into the equipment unit (6) and configured in order to communicate with the radio tag (20). The system is applicable in particular to electronic systems for aircraft, railway vehicles, motor vehicles, boats, medical facilities, etc.

Abstract: The method for assisting navigation of the invention uses a documentary management system including a processor associated with memories containing at least the stored image of a map of the region traversed by the vehicle and information relating to a multiplicity of objects localized in said region, this information being divided into sets of objects having their own exploitation means.

Abstract: A method for assisting the piloting of an aircraft from a voluminous set of memory-stored documents which uses a processor associated with a terminal comprising a screen and control and data entry keys and with memories containing useful information for operating a flight, the processor being connected to other items of equipment of the aerodyne. The method comprises storing of information in a data base and supplying first exploitation functions of this information, real-time acquisition by the processor of an event relative to the current situation of the aerodyne and analyzing the new situation generated by the occurrence of this event, preselecting the information in the data base best adapted to the new situation, and classifying same by order of relevance, supplying second exploitation functions of the preselected information, selection and exploitation, by the operator, of one of the exploitation functions. The method applies in particular to the civil and commercial aviation.

Abstract: A method which uses a terminal comprising a processor, a screen and a keyboard, comprises step by step breakdown of all the information ("checklist") to be structured into subsets and identification of their structure, grouping together by similar structures of the subsets into objects ("blocClist", "tiCL", "tiblocCL", "remark", "item", "Sdeb", "verif", "Sfin"), input into the terminal of each object, in the form of a graphical symbol representing a node, and of the characteristics thereof, input into the terminal of link type symbols connecting two objects indicating a hierarchical include relation between two objects, translation by the terminal of the graph thus derived into a structure model expressed in a computer language and monitoring of the consistency thereof. The method applies notably to the management, by an on-board computer in an aircraft, of the lists of tasks to be performed during the phases of piloting.
