5. csXceptionAutomated Fault-Injection Environment Challenge • Perform intensive testing in a HW/SW system with minimal intrusiveness cost effectively • Simulate realistic executions conditions and worst failure scenarios. • Identify failures and its causes providing feedback for correction or redesign. Solution • csXception spots weak points in the system, relying on advanced debugging and performance monitoring hardware features, available in common processors, to inject faults and monitor the activation of errors and their impact on the target system Benefit • csXception performs state-of-art product certification on the dependability/RAMS area. It brings in open technologies and standards to provide a professional environment for performing fault-injection based tests.

6. I. S. Verification & ValidationLisaPathfinder; CryoSat and CryoSat-2; GOCE; Sentinel-1 Challenge • Verify and Validate the on-board software according to the applicable standards and mission requirements Solution • Perform code inspections • Static analysis and code coverage • Profiling and metrics gathering • Test design, implementation and execution • ISVV Benefit • Ensure that the developed software is complaint with the applicable criticality levels and the overall mission success • Critical Software best practices converted in an ESA Guide for V&V activities • 90% increase in robustness/trust of the product and ROI of about 1,5 to 5 times 6

7. GalileoPayload Security Units Challenge • Assure Galileo´s satellites navigation safety • Develop the TM/TC onboard processing for the Galileo Payload Security Units Solution • On-board Software development according to the Galileo Software Standards (criticality level: DAL-B) • Support to integration testing and validation • Development of the encrypted subsystem software for the 4 satellites of the In Orbit Validation phase • Implementation of DO-178B Level A and B, Galileo software norms Benefit • High reliable software developed according to very demanding standards 7

8. Herschel / PlanckRTEMS Tailoring and Qualification Challenge • Ensure the RTOS fits the on-board computer defined budget • Reduce and optimize memory footprint of the Basic SW Solution • Tailoring of the RTEMS, removing unused code and unnecessary RTEMS functions • Qualification of the final result to ensure requirements fulfilment • Expert team deployment to support integration testing Benefit • Tailor made RTEMS for theses missions, optimized to its on-board computer and memory footprint minimized • BUG discovery and correction in RTEMS during qualification campaign and reverted to the RTEMS open source community 8

9. PremfireFire Combat Management and Control System Challenge • Manageable, Efficient and Safe Fire Fighting Operations; • Build a powerful and portable mission critical software system for Fire Combat and Resource Management. Solution • C&C Solution to support Fire Fighting activities • Planning, Operation Control, Decision Support and Reporting • Wireless Com (GPRS/TETRA), GNSS (GPS/EGNOS), GIS, Mobile Computing (Tablets) • System divided in three levels (Position, Mobile and C&C) with continuous exchange of geographical and alphanumeric information • .Wide access to WMS/WFS – OGC / INSPIRE compliant Benefit • Real Time operational environment; • Expandable, Reliable; • COTS based on open source and space spin-off development.
