摘要

Green Hills Software's INTEGRITY-178B operating system has been selected for multiple flight-critical systems—including flight controls, surveillance system, and engine monitoring—to be deployed aboard the Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, which is expected to enter revenue service in 2008. Honeywell has selected the operating system for the 787 flight control electronics, which include the autopilot and the fly-by-wire system that conveys . commands from the pilot to the control surfaces, such as the rudder and elevators. Rockwell Collins has chosen INTEGRITY-178B for the 787 surveillance system, which warns the pilot about traffic, collision avoidance, terrain, and weather.
