- Safety and Mission Assurance for Space Launch System (SLS)—Core Stage, ICPS, and Emulators.
- System Safety on subsystems, LRUs, card interfaces, and programmable logic devices (FPGAs, ASICs) for design assurance (MSFC-STD-3663/DO-254) and test verification to prevent erroneous hardware and software operations and functionality.
- Hazards, controls, and test verification objectives.
- Gap Analysis to determine deficiency in meeting NASA standards and requirements.
- Guidance on overall approach for System Safety for modeling SLS elements functions as performed on the rocket day of launch.
- SSARs and technical reports for software, hardware, and safety.
- Working Groups, Technical Interchange Meetings, and Design Reviews.
Design and Test Verification
Program Verification and Validation represent the plan, processes, best practices for certification. V&V planning reflects the structure of the program by defining the verification and validation activities performed against system level integration and associated subsystems. V&V planning defines the approach for requirements verification and validation.
- Design and implementation of cost-effective solutions for CNS/ATM with increase capabilities – aircraft GPS, Electronic Flight Bag, Electronic Flight Instrument (EFI) Model 550, and EIDS Display.
- Audit of the subcontractor design manufacturing process for evident of hardware and software safety EFI-550; Structural Coverage/Static Code Analysis, removal of dead code, line item execution accountability; C++, TDCU-VHDL, Xilinx FPGA; DO-178A/B (software), and DO-254 (hardware).
