3. Architecture
TYPES
 Integrated modular architecture (IMA)
 Federated architecture

4.  The interface and connection between the semi-
automated modules required which is usually provided in
the form of Interface Control Documents (ICD).
 The creation of ICDs and its implementation during the
integration process is bit difficult.
 There are some problems which are faced during these
processes, lack of advanced language or commonly
accepted languages, and the lack of tools in their
production.

5.  As the approach of old federated architecture has
come to its limits and no further advancement is
possible.
 The usage of new IMA technique is necessary for
future automation in air crafts.
 The interoperability among components need
information about their interfaces which is
defined and control by the help of ICD.

6.  This research work is focused to develop reliable,
efficient and traceable method for creation of IMA
system through ICDs.
 Developers facing many problems regarding
creation of IMA
(1) The manual creation of ICDs
(2) Manual usage of ICD system by engineers during
creation of IMA systems
3) Its validation and verification manually

7. The solution proposed below to overcome these problems.
1. Domain Analysis
domain concepts will include the hardware/software
aspects of interfaces, the communication protocols used,
the data exchanged through it as well as the requirements
and all physical/electrical of both IMA and federated
architecture's interfaces.

8. 2. Modeling languages study
To select a set of candidate languages able to model the DSL domain concepts
defined in the first step.
3. Case study modeling
A feasibility study to check the possibility of reusing or extending existing
modelling languages to build the DSL.
4. Concrete syntax
Define/select an appropriate concrete syntax for the DSL and its semantics,
which allows defining the meaning of the DSL elements and therefore enables
automatic transformations.

9. 5. Verification and validation
 To establish interface control and verification
mechanisms to provide a semi-automatic control
and verification of interfaces
 This purposed methodology is close to overcome
the problems faced by aerospace industry during
the integration of intelligent modules regarding
ICDs.
