Adopting open standards in avionics systems promises to lower implementation costs, accelerate development, ensure robust architecture and consistently high-quality software implementation, and maximize reuse. The FACE™ standard embraces these ideals by providing a modular reference architecture based on segments.
Jeff Reser from the Wind River Linux team will illustrate the benefits of FACE-conformant solutions with a focus on purpose-built Linux use cases.

Precise time synchronization is a key requirement in Time Sensitive Networking (TSN). TSN provides deterministic, reliable, and low-latency communication by enabling time-aware scheduling over Ethernet networks. All devices on the network that transmit time-sensitive data must be synchronized in time down to nanoseconds of precision. Traditional protocols used in IT networks are not enough to achieve this accuracy and TSN networks therefore require the use of the Precision Time Protocol (PTP).

In military applications, the edge most often refers to where one engages the adversary or sensors collect the data, regardless of domain – air, land, sea, space, and spectrum. From the battle commander’s point of view, all deployed platforms and sensors are in fact edge devices. Enabling MOSA [modular open systems approach] at the edge involves the ways in which open architecture initiatives and open standards can be applied across these domains. This session covers how MOSA enables smart sensor processing, collection, and analysis at the edge – regardless of domain – through the lens of open architectures and standards.

Director of Systems Architecture for Lynx Software Technologies
Dr. Justin Pearson is the Director of Systems Architecture for Lynx Software Technologies. Prior to his arrival at Lynx, Dr. Pearson worked at MTSI as their Aerospace Systems and Digital Engineering Lead, sitting directly with Army Aviation customers for over 12 years supporting software, architecture, airworthiness, cyber, MOSA, and systems engineering efforts. Dr. Pearson has been involved with all aspects of MOSA for Army Aviation, spanning the successful development and fielding of PEO AVN’s first Open Systems Architecture to the development of ASA(ALT)’s dubbed “Gold Standard”, MOSA implementation guidance for the PEO AVN Enterprise. Dr. Pearson transitioned to Lynx to be more intimately involved in the realization of key Army Aviation requirements such as the Aviation Mission Computing Environment (AMCE), now able to expand his support across multiple DoD customers seeking to achieve similar and unique objectives associated with MOSA, airworthiness, safety, security, and more.
Dr. Pearson’s passion for Army Aviation has been demonstrated both professionally and academically, having authored his dissertation and peer-reviewed articles on Addressing Cybersecurity and Safety Disconnects within Army Aviation. Dr. Pearson holds a B.S. and M.S. from UAH and a Doctorate in Information Technology with a Specialization in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance from Capella University. Dr. Pearson also maintains his CISSP, SEC+, and CEH.
