RTI Presents "Learn About FACE Aligned Reference Platform: Built on COTS and DO-178C Certifiable Components" Complimentary Webinar

RTI Joins Wind River to Discuss Implementation Strategies Behind the FACE Technical Standard


SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 11, 2016) - Real-Time Innovations (RTI), the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) connectivity platform company, today announced it is hosting a complimentary webinar, "Learn About FACE Aligned Reference Platform: Built on COTS and DO-178C Certifiable Components," in partnership with Wind River, a leading provider of embedded software for intelligent connected systems.

The primary objective of the FACE Technical Standard is to define a reference software architecture. The Reference Implementation Guide documents approaches and best industry practices to instantiate the reference software architecture for developing and verifying infrastructure software components and application components.

Dave Stringer, Principal Applications Engineer at RTI, and Larry Kinnan, Principal Technologist for Avionics and Safety Critical Systems at Wind River, will examine a case study of such a reference implementation in order to demonstrate capabilities that can be integrated using FACE aligned components. These components include:

  • An Operating System Segment (FACE Safety Base Profile aligned) utilizing both C and C++ runtimes
  • A Transport Services Segment (TSS) utilizing DDS and ARINC port services
  • A Platform Specific Services Segment (PSSS) including Graphic Services
  • A Portable Components Segment (PCS) implemented within a partition providing the Primary Flight Display.
  • An IO Services Segment (IOS) including the adapters to the low device drivers in use on the platform, specifically the serial and Ethernet.
