EUROCAE is an international non-profit organization that brings together experts from across the aviation industry to develop and promote consensus-based high-quality standards for civil aviation systems and equipment. dSPACE is member of Working Group 97 Interoperability of Virtual Avionic Components (WG-97). The working group is responsible for the technical standard ED-247 “Virtual Interoperable Simulation for Tests of Aircraft Systems in Virtual or Hybrid Benches”, also known as VISTAS. The standard provides a framework to support the interoperability of virtual and physical avionics components, thus enabling a streamlined and more efficient integration of virtual and hybrid test benches.
