ASHLEY project The IMA (Integrated Modular Avionics) concept proposes an integrated architecture with application software portable across an assembly of common hardware modules. This architectural approach has been developed in the past 20 years and is now implemented in state-of-the art current commercial aircraft (first generation IMA, or IMA1G (First Generation IMA)).
The FP7 project ASHLEY will consolidate and build upon work done in EU projects e.g. SCARLETT (SCAlable & ReconfigurabLe Electronics plaTforms and Tools), and several related national projects. It will demonstrate the most advanced building blocks available today in a whole aircraft-level platform, and introduce new innovations.
ASHLEY will be a valuable asset on the path to IMA2G (Second Generation IMA) for the aircraft of the future.
ASHLEY Objectives
THALES AVIONICS SASProject ManagerThierry [email protected]
ISQDissemination ManagerMargarida [email protected]
Advanced processes, methods and tools Innovations
Multi-domain, secured Data Distribution services to streamline aircraft data distribution
Development of an efficient system designer oriented IMA2G Tooling Framework solution that remains compliant with IMA2G industrial and certification constraints
Development of a generation of digital smart actuators and sensors, including those based on new advanced photonics technologies
ASHLEY will carry out research on top of the existing state-of- the-art and focus on the following areas where most innovations are expected:
Extension of DME* concepts and solutions to other aircraft domains especially the Aircraft Information System Domain (AISD or open world) and the cabin domain, leading to the definition of DME* security components
Extension of DME* common remote I/O management resources to Secondary Power Distribution and additional Time and Safety Critical aircraft systems such as High Lift
To extend the DME* concept and set of components over the Open World and Cabin aircraft domains for large
aircraft, regional aircraft and business jets.
To provide Database Services covering both the avionics world and open world to allow for a higher flexibility in avionics systems design.
To propose DME* remote resources solutions for
Secondary Power Distribution and Time
Critical aircraft systems.
To decrease avionics (multi-domains) function overall design time thanks to a more system designer
oriented tool chain.
To evaluate the benefits of photonics and smart
interfaces to sensors and actuators to increase performances of some
avionics systems.
To promote DME* concepts and innovations to any IMA key stakeholders (industrial, academics, certification and standardization bodies) that
will influence existing academia and market and
create new ones.
To validate the ASHLEY advanced state of the art by implementing a large scale demonstrator consisting of
a set of representative aircraft systems onto the
DME* extended set of components.
