Abstract Avionics, like any other safety-critical real-time systems, pose unique challenges on system design, development, and testing. Specifically, the rigorous certification process mandated for avionics software calls for additional attention. The DO-178C Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification provides detailed guidelines to ensure safety measures. This chapter gives a different angle to avionics development and certification, highlighting model-based approaches for advancing the design, development, testing, and maintenance of airborne software systems. Modern software engineering processes such as agile and scrum are discussed as the new techniques in speeding up the certification hurdle, while achieving higher return on investment.
