Barco Selects Wind River for Military Display and Management System Used by French Armed Forces

VxWorks 653 Powers First EASA DO-178B Certified Display for Next-Generation
Aircraft
ALAMEDA, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Wind River today announced that Belgium-based Barco, an international leader in
high-performance display systems for aerospace applications, has selected
VxWorks 653 as the foundation for its CDMS-3000 next-generation Control Display
and Management System. By standardizing the CDMS-3000 on Wind River VxWorks 653
with commercial, off-the-shelf (COTS) DO-178B certification evidence, Barco
reduced time and cost in attaining EASA ETSO-C113 safety certification.

Barco`s CDMS-3000 product family is based on its flexible MOSArt modular open
system architecture. It includes the civil CDMS-3739 (ARINC 739), the
military-oriented CDMS-3703 (combined ARINC-429 and MIL-STD-1553) and the
versatile CDMS-3702, all hosting Barco's unique MOSArt platform. This MOSArt
platform enables customers to develop and integrate their own applications on
the CDMS-3000 platform.

"The CDMS-3000 product family is a next-generation offering that provides
openness and flexibility to customers, while also offering COTS certification to
systems integrators," said Jean-Christophe Monfret, product management director
at Barco. "As a foundation for the future, we required an industry-leading, COTS
DO-178B-certified real-time operating system (RTOS). Barco chose Wind River
VxWorks 653 to power the CDMS-3000, which has already been selected for a
variety of civil as well as military transport and surveillance aircraft."

"Wind River VxWorks 653 is the world`s leading ARINC 653-compliant integrated
modular avionics (IMA) platform," said Andreas Pabinger, vice president of EMEA,
Wind River. "The deployment of Barco`s CDMS-3000 is just the latest example of
an industry leader in civilian and military aircraft selecting the most robust
ARINC 653 RTOS in the market to power its cutting-edge design. Safety
certification can be a long, costly process and global avionics systems
integrators now routinely rely on VxWorks 653 for its COTS certification
evidence to reduce costs and time-to-flight."
