Embedded software is a ubiquitous presence onboard aircraft today. Just as software has become a key element in everything from consumer vehicles to household appliances, it is also critical to aircraft control. Beyond mission-critical avionics systems, software is also increasingly present in commercial aircraft galley equipment, passenger onboard entertainment systems and, more recently, wi-fi networks for passengers.
