Rapita Systems delivered a sold-out DO-178C Multicore Training event in Huntsville on July 26-27.
Led by DO-178C multicore certification experts, the training focused on practical approaches to satisfying A(M)C 20-193 / CAST-32A objectives for both civil and defense multicore avionics projects. The training included both theory components and demos of how evidence of multicore verification for A(M)C 20-193 can be achieved in practice.
The event sold out quickly, with attendees from the US Army internal certification team and some of the world's best known aerospace and defense contractors securing tickets ahead of the event.
The training was held at the Hyatt in Huntsville, Alabama, a key hub for the US aerospace and defense industry. The training was spread over two full days, following the agenda below:
