Abstract :
This work is focused on the design and development of a middleware software layer which will enable real-time communication among different embedded avionics modules through an ARINC 429 bus. The implemented layer is based on a C++ object-oriented (OO)-based structure and it has been designed in accordance with middleware concepts. It makes each specific avionics application independent from the bus, from the manufacturers´ hardware and finally, from the avionics hardware board model.
