This paper describes Silver Software's experience in carrying out the software development for the landing gear system for a major new airliner. The authors hope this paper will be of interest, for a number of reasons: The landing gear is one of the most safety-critical systems on the aircraft. This aircraft uses Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA). Much of the work was carried out at the software development centre in Bangalore, India (in particular, development of the Level C software and verification of the Level A software). This was one of the first implementations of IMA on a civil aircraft. It is also one of the first aircraft to use the new ARINC 653 operating system standard. Most airframe manufacturers are now adopting ARINC 653. For example, both Airbus A380 and Boeing 787 Dreamliner use ARINC 653. There is a strong trend towards adopting IMA throughout the aerospace industry. Silver Software found the use of IMA and of ARINC 653 to be of great assistance in developing such a complex system while ensuring safety, fault tolerance, maintainability and portability. There is a lack of real-world experience ofARINC 653 and of design patterns for IMA.
