4. Optimized, Location-Independent
Communication
• Physical transport(s) configurable at integration time
• Applications can use multiple transports concurrently
• Transport(s) configured per application

Transport Use
Intra-process Within the same address space (process)
Shared memory Between processes in the same partition
ARINC ports Within a node; within or between partitions
Sockets
(UDP unicast or multicast)
Within or between nodes, including over
Ethernet
Low-bandwidth Over satellite or radio links (no IP requirement)
Custom Over custom networks or busses (via plug-in API)

Up to Level A Partition
RTI Routing Service:
Transport and Network Routing
• Component of RTI Connext Integrator
• Deployable in uncertified systems or Level E partitions
• Also supports data transformations, protocol mediation

10. DDS Natively Supports FACE Data Model
• FACE messages are strongly typed
• OMG IDL used by FACE Platform Data Model & DDS
– FACE messages must conform to IDLlanguage mapping
– Apps can use mappings generated by RTI’s IDL compiler
• DDS natively understands data
– Type safety
– Heterogeneous interoperability (languages, CPUs)
– Wire efficiency (minimizes metadata)
– Enables middleware-level filtering (including at source)
– Eases integration (explicit interfaces)

11. Supports DDS QoS
• Messaging reliability: Best Effort and Reliable
• Optional durability maintains consistent state
– Last value(s) persisted by publisher
– Available to late- and re-joining subscribers
– History depth configurable on pub and sub sides
• Automatic failover: Ownership and Strength
• Send/receive cache resource configuration
11
12. Certification Path
• Thin layer over DDS
– Currently <2K ELOC
• Compatible with Connext DDS Cert
– DO-178C Level A certifiable
– Evaluation in progress
– ~20K Executable Lines Of Code (ELOC)
– Small memory footprint: ~200 KB library
– Low CPU load: <10% at 30 HZ update rate
