Abstract :
Regulatory authorities in the US and Europe have received two documents crucial to aviation software developers. The first one, DO-248B, clarifies existing software guidelines for airborne systems and equipment certification, and the other, CNS/ATM (a counterpart to DO-178B) provides new guidance for non-airborne communication and navigation systems.
