Managing data exchange between an avionic core and an open world device

摘要

A flight management system includes: an avionics core implementing generic aircraft management functionalities and providing services associated with the generic functionalities; at least one remote functionality in an open world part performing a function of interfacing between the avionics core and the open world applications run on the open world part which need to communicate with the avionics core, wherein the remote functionality ensures homogeneity and consistency of data exchanged and guaranteeing integrity and security of data exchanges, and an exchange interface of between the avionics core and the open world functionality supporting data exchanges.

1. A management system for an aircraft comprising:
an avionics core including a computer system configured to provide generic aircraft management functions and to support functional services associated with the generic aircraft management functions; an open world device, separate from the avionics core, configured to provide a remote function, wherein the remote function supports data exchange between the avionics core and an open world application being executed by the open world device, and the remote function is configured to ensure homogeneity and consistency of data being exchanged between the avionics core and the open world application; and an exchange interface configured to enable or disable data transmission between the avionics core and the open world device depending on data to be transmitted between the avionics core and the open world device, wherein the exchange interface interacts with the remote function during the supported data exchange, and by enabling and disabling the data transmission, the exchange interface provides security with respect to the data transmission to the avionics core.
