Abstract

This paper discusses software architecture and design issues in the development of flight control software. After a short introduction to the flight control application domain, several design concepts and methods are described that have been applied and evaluated in an implementation of flight control laws for a fighter aircraft. The issues and approaches presented include: platform-independent software, object-oriented techniques, reusable components, design patterns and software design for multi-processor targets.
