The interfaces between on-board systems play a very important role for a civil aircraft, which primarily involve the signal, material and energy exchanged be-tween relevant systems in the aircraft. It is believed that a uniform interface management can remove and reduce conflicts between systems in the aircraft integration. It is necessary and essential to perform the interface management in an effective and uniform manner throughout the whole aircraft development life cycle to identify, validate, control, and verify the interfaces to ensure all the sys-tems integrated properly according to the given expectations. An interface management and development approach is proposed, which is composed of four phases, i.e. interface architecture definition, interface identification, documentation and change control. An interface development and management case is pro-vided, which demonstrates that the proposed approach can not only effectively assist system engineers in capturing various types of interfaces, but also can ex-press interfaces in an unambiguous way, which allows engineers to develop a shared understanding about interface requirements. It is also found that the inter-face management approach can control the interfaces in the whole aircraft development life cycle, which is beneficial to aircraft integration.
