Airborne Software Tool Qualification Method Based on Tool Service History
At present,with the extensive use of various tools in the development of domestic civil aircraft airborne software,the software development team should not only consider the airworthiness certification requirements of airborne software,but also the tool qualification requirements of the tools used.Based on DO-178C and DO-330 standards,this paper introduces the process of determining the tool qualification needs,the method of determining the tool qualification level,the tool qualification life cycle,and the tool qualification stakeholders and responsibilities.At the same time,this paper analyzes and studies the appli-cation of the tool service history method used in the airborne software tool qualification,explains the re-quirements and activities of evaluating the tool service history.Finally,through the project example,this paper proves that the tool service history method is feasible for airborne software tool qualification.
