Abstract :
The authors report on the results of Phase I and options of the advanced avionics technology demonstration (AATD) embedded computer performance measurement (ECPM) program performed by Texas Instruments (TI) for the Naval Avionics Center (NAC). During this effort TI and NAC personnel developed novel techniques for measuring spare throughput and space I/O to be used for comparison of different computing systems, and as a systems engineering capability for determination of system reserves. The following aspects of the program are described in detail: problem definition, software structure, results, and system engineering aspects
