Common Terminology
This page contains a listing of common and useful terminology that is used throughout this wiki.
In programming, typically in reference to an operation being performed on the same computer chip. In design, typically in reference to an object being on the airborne platform.
In programming, typically in reference to an operation being performed on some other computer chip. In design, typically in reference to an object being on the ground or on a different airborne platform.
This is a method of running a simulation of a system completely in software. It typically involves setting up a full environment to simulate all of the hardware involved, as well as all of the software that is running.
This is a method of running a simulation of a system while implementing some or all of the hardware that the system will actually use. This method is usually a better indication of the performance of a system, and allows for a more involved debugging process. It typically involves running the software on the involved hardware in a simulation mode, and then providing certain information (such as the state of an aircraft or images from a camera) from a simulator or more powerful computer.
