With the evolving technology and extensive software usage, aircrafts have become a software embedded flying contrivance. Navigation system, landing gear system and propulsion system are some of the major subsystems of the aircraft. Propulsion system is one of the vital sub-systems with demarcated purpose to propel the aircraft. Earlier, the control unit of the engine was completely controlled by mechanical means but with the technical advancements it has been automated by software embedded control unit. Software has become so important these days that its safety, complications and risks cannot be ignored. The embedded software in digital engine control unit is a safety critical software as its failure can lead to hazardous state that can cause loss of property, damage to environment and even loss of human life. Therefore, intensive care needs to be taken while ensuring the safety and reliability of such software. The traditional testing approach needs to be fortified with more firm and rigid standardized methodology in order to diminish the probability of failure of the system. This paper throws light on the Independent Verification and Validation process followed to ensure safety, reliability and robustness of aero engine propulsion system software.
