“Our toolset allows us to perform rapid integration, and develop non-proprietary interfaces of military equipment faster than anything else in industry. These non-proprietary standard interfaces allow the Platforms to integrate war-fighting capabilities faster and minimize effects of device-level changes. With our toolset we can perform requirements development, develop API interfaces and control code, perform verification efforts, and demonstrate simulations to illustrate actual or simulated performance of the integrated distributed system(s)” states Sean Mulholland.

Our next product for the PM-AME is an automated comprehensive control test tool (ACCT). This architecture will enhance PM-AME’s capabilities in automated testing of bussed-controlled avionics and will be used to test a 1553-bussed and Ethernet controlled LRU’s against its MICD for box qualification efforts. This product will assist in ensuring that software product release testing is sufficient and will assist in ensuring that the product is ready for aircraft integration.”
