The aim of the module is to provide a comprehensive overview of the technical performance, certification requirements and the technologies employed in current and future avionic systems $� civil and military $� set in the context of their airborne operational environment. On completion of the module and assignment work, delegates will be able to: Describe and analyse the fundamental performance requirements and constituent elements of all the significant avionic systems to be found in modern civil and military air-vehicles; Understand the requirements for and develop the functionality of any avionic system element within the context of a fully integrated $�systems of systems&�; Formulate and integrate avionic systems from requirements definition, through concept development to final implementation in the context of their operational role; Understand and apply the architectural principles and the design process to be employed in order to certificate safe and reliable avionic systems.
