GNAT Pro High-Integrity Edition for DO-178B used for EFIS/EICAS upgrade and modernization

The LDRA tool suite’s integration with the TASKING VX-toolset for Infineon’s C166 brings certifiability to this small footprint family and its derivatives. LDRA stands alone in providing standard compliance across all stages of the lifecycle whether for automotive with MISRA and ISO 26262, industrial with IEC 61508 or avionics/military with DO-178B.

LDRA delivers compliance for IEC 61508, a standard which proves the functional safety of programmable electronic systems performing safety functions. Because of the integration of the LDRA tool suite, LDRA applies compliance to IEC 61508 from requirements through design, code, analysis and testing.

To automate test processes and replace traditional test silos with an integrated test management process, LDRA extends the capabilities of TBmanager, a test management and traceability component within the LDRA tool suite. TBmanager manages the flux between requirements, code and tests, providing improved transparency and consistent test plans.

EADS CASA is using the GNAT Pro High-Integrity Edition to implement the data exchange and air-to-ground data links systems for the nEUROn Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV) demonstrator.

AdaCore, provider of tools and expertise for the mission-critical, safety-critical, and security-critical software communities, today announced that Airbus Military has successfully certified the Airbus Military Aerial Refueling Boom System (ARBS) on the A330 Multi Role Tanker Transport (MRTT). The certification was simplified by the use of the qualified GNATcheck tool to verify conformance to the software coding standard required by the ARBS project. Verification of conformance was undertaken as part of the DO-178B level A Software Verification Process.

Analox, a leader in gas-detection technology, chose LDRA’s analysis and test tools to achieve IEC 61508 compliance for a dive monitoring system and a submarine rescue vehicle. Not only did Analox improve quality and productivity with the LDRA tool suite, but costs came down too.
