Avilution Awarded 3rd Place at Digital Avionics Systems Conference (DASC) 2024

CEO, Mark Spencer accepts DASC award.

Having already had its paper “Avilution’s eXtensible Flight System (XFS)--Making Modular Open-System Approaches Practical” selected for both Best in Session for Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) and Best in Track for Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA), Avilution was honored to be further selected for Third Place in the overall “Best of Conference” awards for the best of the 235 academic papers submitted to the 2024 Digital Avionics Systems Conference held last week in San Diego. 

Avilution’s founder and CEO, Mark Spencer, enthused, “We are delighted that our paper captured the attention of such a respected group of judges within the DASC conference. It’s a tribute to the entire Avilution team that they’ve implemented a practical vision of how MOSA can truly enable fast times to fielding, at affordable cost – and proven it on real customer hardware. We look forward to working with our valued customers to leverage XFS capabilities to provide effective solutions to their integration needs.” 

XFS is modular, configurable, reusable avionics software, rigorously designed and tested for safety-critical applications ranging from traditional cockpit controls to aerial mission systems. It allows integrators to create entire customized flight decks or cost-effective upgrades to existing instrumentation, faster and more affordably. Avilution’s military customers, particularly the U.S. Army Program Executive Office - Aviation headquartered at Huntsville’s Redstone Arsenal, have found XFS’s agility and responsiveness advantageous for rapidly providing new capabilities to America’s warfighters and countering rapidly evolving enemy threats.
