� Very demanding ramp-up phases require huge improvem ents in system maturity at Entry Into Service
� Increasing the set of functions hosted by the IMA p latform reduces risk on maturity: the development effort for core e lectronics (HW / OS) is communalised

� Next generation IMA platform will need to provide more computing power and interface capability
� Volume / weight / power consumption constraints will remain

15 /15 / From IMA1G/IMA1G+ to IMA2G : SCARLETT Objectives
Increase operational reliability
Avoid unscheduled maintenance
Reduce Set of Part Numbers
Scalability to various aircraft
types
Reduce development
cycle
Reduce cost of spare parts
1 – Provide a scalable solution
2 – Define minimal set of modules3 – Increase number of supported
function4 – Develop new standards to
support 2 nd generation IMA
5 – Provide associated process and toolset
6 – Demonstrate fault tolerance
-- and reconfiguration
Save weight, volume, power consumption
16 /16 / IMA2G improvements
IMA1G
� Is only used for selected applications
� Characterized by several types of processing Module s because of Input / Output
� Does authorize better reuse and less Part Numbers b ut not re-configurability
IMA1G+
� Performance upgrading to sustain more functions
� Upgrade Operating System with separation between Lo cal and Global variable
� Generalization of Incremental Certification
IMA2G
� Will separate Input / Output from computing resourc e
� Will bring enhanced performance enabling a greater number of applications to be hosted on the same module
� Will provide specific platform services such as rec onfiguration
� Will enable scalability

The steps completed in this first project are:
� Definition and validation of new IMA2G platform arc hitecture concepts
� Development of key basic components, like Core Proc essing Module or Remote Data Concentrator, and supporting tools
� Demonstration of key features:
� Platform reconfiguration capabilities
� Decentralized Input / Output
� IMA new type of modules:
� Time Critical for Flight control
� Avionics server for crew and passengers
