METHOD FOR PROCESSING VOLUME OF INFORMATION USED DURING DEBUGGING PHASE OF OPERATIONAL SYSTEM SOFTWARE ONBOARD AIRCRAFT AND DEVICE FOR REALISING SAID METHOD

摘要

FIELD: information technology. ^ SUBSTANCE: method comprises the following steps: a) dividing (32) the execution path of the operational software into functional intervals by placing progression points at each function of the program; b) placing (33) control points associated with each progression point; c) normal execution of the program that includes: storing the execution state of the program at the location of each progression point, wherein the storage of an execution state results in the erasure of the execution state previously stored for said progression point; upon the detection of an error: searching the progression point corresponding to a faulty function; searching (41) for a software start execution state; regenerating (42) the start execution state; correcting (44) the error in the faulty function; and re-executing the program. ^ EFFECT: minimising the required memory size and debugging time. ^ 8 cl, 2 dwg
