The software loading occurs when a new software version corrects previously identified errors to include new functionalities to airborne systems, such as those embedded in aircraft. The available literature has not yet scientifically addressed the characteristics of Loadable Airborne Systems (LASs). Although the RTCA DO-178 introduced the concept of field-loadable software, which is the possibility to update the software without the need to remove the equipment or system from its installation on the aircraft, the industry does not yet have an organized framework of reusable requirements and tests. The objective of this work is to present a new framework for LASs. This framework contains a set of reusable requirements and general test procedures for software loading, involving manual and automatic checks. We believe that our framework can help smaller companies, especially market entrants, to incorporate software loading capacity into system development. This work also includes the identification of threats involving safety and security.

可装载机载系统的框架

当新的软件版本纠正了先前确定的错误以包括机载系统（例如飞机上嵌入的系统）的新功能时，就会发生软件加载。现有文献尚未科学地论证可装载机载系统（LASs）的特性。尽管RTCA DO-178引入了现场可加载软件的概念，即无需从飞机上的安装中删除设备或系统即可更新软件的可能性，但该行业还没有一个可重用的组织框架要求和测试。这项工作的目的是为LAS提供一个新的框架。该框架包含一组可重用的要求和软件加载的常规测试过程，包括手动和自动检查。我们认为，我们的框架可以帮助较小的公司（尤其是市场进入者）将软件加载能力纳入系统开发。这项工作还包括识别涉及安全和保障的威胁。
