Cyberphysical Aircraft Development and Test Using Industrial Linux Servers
The value of cyberphysical product development within Integration, Verification, and Validation (IVV) is immense, with reduced cost for aircraft flight test and shortened product development cycles as a result of more concurrency in product engineering tasks. In the past five years, the use of cyberphysical and virtual systems integration methods for verification and validation has grown rapidly across many heavy industrial product markets and has seen widespread adoption within the aerospace and defense industries particularly. This paper discusses the advancements and advantages provided by cyberphysical and virtual product development through the life of a civil aircraft program while utilizing real-time optimized industrial Linux servers.
