A new method for hardware/software integration of strategic systems - Case study of the Space ShuttleAn advanced system integrated self-test has been developed to provide dynamic checkout of all critical subsystems and hardware/software interfaces of the Space Shuttle during pre-launch ground testing. The system modifies hardware sensor data to represent a real flight scenario. This modified data then drives the flight software. The system was sucessfully utilized for three phases of Space Shuttle testing, and will be expanded for use as a maintenance tool.
