In safety critical systems such as aerospace, it becomes more important since the non-performance of the system as per the requirement may lead to a catastrophe. Also, the work-around to modify the design as per the requirements, generate code, obtain safety clearance from the authorized agency before porting to the target is very time consuming and a cumbersome approach. In this paper, we propose a model-based approach to improve the performance of the software algorithm and optimize the pitch trim movement before porting the code to the target. The effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated with a case study of aerospacedomain. The approach encompasses the aircraft sub-system dynamics and the software which operates the sub-system. The analysis of the functionality with performance provides a high level of confidence in the software that is to be ported on to the target. The test.. View More»
