This paper describes the use of a computational architecture that is distributed between minicomputers and microprocessors to perform avionic systems maintenance training. The unique requirements posed by trainers are examined along with the rationale for allocating software functions to the different processors. The benefits and drawbacks of a distributed system are analyzed with respect to the total system life cycle costs. Two implementations of the distributed architecture are described, the F-15 Aircraft Maintenance Trainer (AMT) and the E-3A AWACS Radar Maintenance Training System (MTS). Both of these trainers use Honeywell Level-6 minicomputers for student interaction and Multiple Motorola MC68000 microprocessors for dynamic front-end processing.
