Dependable embedded real-time systems are an enabling technology for the information society. Their economic impact reaches far beyond their immediate market size, since the success of many industrial products depends on the provision of reliable control systems. As the rapidly growing functional and non-functional system requirements cause an enormous increase in system complexity, it is necessary to move into component-based design: to provide pre-validated hardware and software components and an appropriate integration methodology for the design of next generation dependable embedded real-time systems. The major objective of the Integrated Project DECOS is to perform research in and to develop a set of generic hardware and software components within the framework of the Time-Triggered Architecture.

In the aerospace industry the successive deployment of fly-by-wire systems has led to a safer and more dependable air-transport system. A key challenge in next-generation aircraft designs is the reduction of the development costs and recurring costs of aircraft electronics. If mass-produced commercial-off-the-shelf components meet the reliability requirement of the aerospace industry, this challenge could be tackled.

Therefore, the Aerospace sub-project of DECOS plans to demonstrate the applicability of the technology developed within this project in a novel flap control system for aircraft. This flap control system will provide a test platform for the aerospace domain to realize the implementation, test and integration of tools, methods and components (HW & SW) being developed in other sub-projects including methods and tools for the generic test-bench. Thus, the demonstrator will enable to validate the achieved results and demonstrate their practicability in an ambitious safety-critical application environment.
