Specifics of the Development of an On-Board Visualization System for Civil Aircrafts

Abstract

The instrument panels of modern aircraft are created using the “glass cockpit” concept. This new interface philosophy improves the perception of important flight information by displaying it on a single multi-function display. The paper considers the problems that arise when developing a certified pilot display visualization system designed for operation on civil aircraft under the Russian real-time operating system JetOS. The paper presents several algorithmic solutions that allow achieving acceptable visualization speed. In particular, a solution to the problem of rigid scheduling of operating system partitions is described in detail. This solution allows to overcome the degradation of rendering speed. Directions for further work have been outlined.
