Abstract :
An overview of the recent work in migrating the Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) architecture to space is presented. IMA is a candidate avionics architecture for space vehicles. The IMA was originally developed for the Boeing 777 program; since the IMA´s successful implementation on the 777 program, significant progress has been made on the space IMA. This migration has focused on three areas: the architecture of a space IMA, a rapid prototyping laboratory, and development testing of space IMA components
