Abstract

This document defines the functional and performance requirements for the external computer system (ECS) simulator that interfaces with the inertial navigation system simulator. Both the ECS simulator and the INS simulator are being developed in ADA by the Real-Time Embedded Systems Testbed Project at the Software Engineering Institute. The ECS simulator is similar to a real-world ECS, but has reduced functionality. This document provides specifications for the major functions of the ECS simulator.
