Platform independent safety-critical operating system

An end-element, a logic solver system and a sensor are essential parts of safety-critical systems. The time to market of a brand new logic solver system might drastically increase when a safety-critical operating system needs to be written from scratch. According to our observations, the commercial safety-critical operating systems are not flexible enough to be reused for a brand-new platform. Consequently, we are going to present a generic safety-critical operating system. The operating system is written in an object-oriented programming language. Inheritance and polymorphism are used to achieve hardware independency. The first results show that more than thirty percent of source code might be reused. Thus, a lot of time for testing, documenting and certifying can be saved.
