SCOPE:This document is a companion document to SAE AS4893 “Generic Open Architecture (GOA) Framework Standar

12、d” and provides an overview and rationale for SAE AS4893. The GOA Framework establishes an architectural framework to assist in the application of open systems interface standards to the design of specific hardware/software systems. The GOA Framework standard is intended for use by both system desig

13、ners and system implementers in the development of open systems architectures. It is intended that domain specific guidelines be developed to provide clarification for application of the GOA Framework.The Generic Open Architecture (GOA) Framework was initially developed by the SAE to provide a frame

14、work which could be used to classify interfaces needed in airborne avionics systems. At the time of the development of the GOA Framework, development of such a classification was considered crucial to the application of open systems standards to military avionics. However, it was recognized during t

15、he development of the GOA that the GOA Framework might be applicable to domains other than avionics. For that reason the framework is entitled Generic Open Architecture instead of the original name, Generic Open Avionics Architecture (GOAA).This document is one of several documents contained within

16、the GOA document set. “Introduction to the GOA Family of Document Set”, SAE AIR5314, provides an overview of the GOA Family of Documents. SAE AIR5314, the GOA Framework Standard, and this document make up the domain independent set of documents within the GOA Family of Documents. These domain indepe

17、ndent documents are augmented with domain specific sets of document. The Domain specific sets of documents consist of a Catalog of Preferred Standards document, Rationale for Catalog of Preferred Standards Document, and GOA Guidance Document for each domain. The first domain specific set of document

18、s within the GOA Family of Documents being developed is for the aviation domain.1.1 Purpose:The purpose of this document is two-fold:1. provide detailed explanation of the key concepts contained within the GOA Framework standard.2. provide rationale for key concepts on which the GOA Framework standa

19、rd is based.1.2 Intended Audience:The intended audience for this document is anyone that has an interest in using or understanding the GOA Framework standard. This typically would include system engineers, hardware engineers, software engineers, engineering managers, project managers, academia, and

20、procurement personnel. This document assumes the reader is familiar with the GOA Framework, SAE AS4893.SAE AIR5315- 4 -1.3 Document Structure:This document is organized as follows:Section 1: Scope - provides an introduction and purpose to this document.Section 2: References - provides documents refe

S

26、imply stated, logical interfaces define what information is transferred, and direct interfaces define how the information is transferred.One example of a logical interface is the definition of interface requirements for exchange of latitude and longitude information from a Navigation application to

27、a Stores Management application. The logical interface defines information that would become the basis for an Interface Control Document (ICD) for Navigation to Stores Management communication. Another example of a logical interface is the message header used by a Communications XOS service to encap

28、sulate message data. This message header contains information that is interpreted by the peer Communications XOS service entities in order to make a message transfer occur. For example, logical designations of the message destination(s) and type might appear in such a header. The definition of the m

29、essage header is a logical interface that tells the two peer Communications XOS services how to initialize and interpret the message header when a message transfer actually takes place.Direct interfaces specify how components in one layer invoke services in the layer immediately below it within the

30、same GOA stack or how the physical layer in one GOA stack “physically“ interfaces with the physical layer of another GOA stack (e.g. between processor modules). Logical interfaces occur as the result of invocations of direct interfaces that support communications. For example, consider the latitude

31、and longitude logical interface example presented in the previous paragraph. If message-passing communication is used, the actual transfer of the latitude and longitude information would occur as the result of the Navigation application invoking a “send” operation in the System Services layer. The i

32、nvocation of the send routine would cause the system to physically transfer the data to make it available to the Stores Management application. The Stores Management application would then invoke a “receive” System Services operation to actually get the message containing latitude and longitude info

33、rmation. These send and receive routines are example of direct interfaces. However, there are also direct interfaces that have nothing to do with communications - these direct interfaces just invoke a service such as reading the time, allocating or deallocating memory, etc. The interface specificati

34、on of a component within a GOA layer designates the direct interfaces to that GOA layer. For example, POSIX defines a standard Operating System component interface; bus standards define the electrical characteristics of the bus.Thus, logical interfaces are considered important to define communicatio

35、n and synchronization requirements between peer-to-peer components. Direct interfaces are important for defining the interface to services (including communication services that make logical interfaces possible.)Before one can define interfaces, one must know what is being interfaced. The following

36、provides an overview of these components - the GOA layers and some rationale for choosing the GOA layers.SAE AIR5315- 9 -3.3 (Continued):The Application Software layer contains the platform level application specific code (or function).The application layer within a specific GOA stack can contain mu

37、ltiple software application components. The requirements for communication between different application components (whether within the same or different GOA stacks) is a logical interface. As noted above, the communication occurs through direct interfaces. For message passing paradigms, the communi

38、cation occurs by invoking message-passing services. If the interface is through shared memory (instead of message passing), the direct interface is simply a load or store operation, and the logical interface is the association of the address and size of the data. The 4D interfaces, i.e., Application

39、 Program Interfaces (APIs), are critical since they are important from a reuse perspective and a seamless upgradeability point-of-view. APIs support reuse by having the same Systems Services implemented the same way on different hardware platforms. Seamless upgrades can be supported by 4D interfaces

40、 since they abstract the Applications Software from the lower GOA layers.In particular, the Systems Service layer abstracts the Applications Software from changes in the Physical Resources layer, such as processor modifications/upgrades.The Physical Resources layer is the bottom-most layer and provi

41、des the interface between different physical components. The Physical Resources layer within a specific GOA stack can contain multiple Physical Resource components. The following are examples of Physical Resource components that might appear in the same GOA layer: Pi-Bus interface unit for intermodu

42、le data communication, TM-Bus interface unit for intermodule test and maintenance, IEEE-488 interface unit for debug, and CPU device for program execution. The 1D direct and 1L logical interfaces are clearly critical interfaces from a black box point-of-view. These interfaces include the physical an

43、d data link level definitions of busses where the electrical/mechanical requirements are direct (1D) interfaces and how the bits are interpreted are logical (1L) interfaces.The System Services Layer is provided to encapsulate common services accessed by the Application Software Layer. The Operating

44、System (OS) Service is the minimal component within the System Services Layer. XOSServices designate other components contained within the Systems Services Layer besides the OS. This layer is important since it allows an abstract view of common services required by applications. As discussed in sect

45、ion 4.2 Issues and Resolution, the 3X interface provides an interface between XOS and the OS services to provide either capabilities not included in the OS 4D interface (i.e., privileged operations) or optimized 4D interface capabilities.The optimization is for performance and could occur through an

46、 interface that has reduced checking or has less call overhead (such as avoiding a system trap). The logical 3L interface provides System Service Layer peer-to-peer interface communications interfaces. For example, the interpretation of the fields within the communications header added to a message

47、between two applications is an example of a 3L interface. It should be noted that, even though not explicitly mentioned in SAE AS4893, an XOS Service may use 4D interfaces to invoke the Operating System or other XOS Services resident within the same GOA stack.SAE AIR5315- 10 -3.3 (Continued):The Res

48、ource Access Layer contains components that directly access the hardware. This layer includes classical device drivers and memory mapped I/O definition translation, for example. The GOA Framework supports the idea that this layer abstracts the remaining layers from the Physical Resources. The 3D int

49、erface is provided between the System Services Layer and the Resource Access Layer to allow the non-processor dependent (i.e., non-I/O dependent) algorithms within the Systems Services Layer to be abstracted from specific Physical Resource Layer implementations.This supports OS and XOS portability between target platforms. The Joint Integrated Avionics Working Group (JIAWG) Input/Output Built-In-Test Description Specification (IOBIDS) specification and the Uniform Device Driver Interface (UDI) interface are example of 3D interfaces. The 2D interface defines th
