“…As the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) procedures state that checkpoints and testing procedures are mandatory after module development [38][39][40], a performance analysis checkpoint is implemented to test the integration of all developed modules. This checkpoint contains many test procedures to evaluate the following:…”

The simulated training is an important issue for any type of missions such as aerial, ground, sea, or even space missions. In this paper, a new flexible aerial simulator based on active hybrid architecture is introduced. The simulator infrastructure is applicable to any type of training missions and research activities. This software-based simulator is tested on aerial missions to prove its applicability within time critical systems. The proposed active hybrid architecture is introduced via using the VB.NET and MATLAB in the same simulation loop. It exploits the remarkable computational power of MATLAB as a backbone aircraft model, and such mathematical model provides realistic dynamics to the trainee. Meanwhile, the Human-Machine Interface (HMI), the mission planning, the hardware interfacing, data logging, and MATLAB interfacing are developed using VB.NET. The proposed simulator is flexible enough to perform navigation and obstacle avoidance training missions. The active hybrid architecture is used during the simulated training, and also through postmission activities (like the generation of signals playback reports for evaluation purposes). The results show the ability of the proposed architecture to fulfill the aerial simulator demands and to provide a flexible infrastructure for different simulated mission requirements. Finally, a comparison with some existing simulators is introduced.

“…This section describes the conducted tests and methods that are used to evaluate the proposed scheme, which is divided into two major sections: ground tests and flight test. The ground tests include different procedures to measure various parameters, validate the data logging module, and measure critical modules processing delay (I/O interface modules) for better evaluation [31][32][33]. On the other hand, the flight test is conducted to demonstrate the GUI capabilities and to verify the performance of the developed avionics, check the consistency of different sensors measurements, and test the whole proposed control and communication scheme.…”

Over the last decades, Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) have gained much attention due to their various applications in different sections. However, their communication range is limited to utilized communication equipment. Therefore, utilization of GSM channels opens a new prospect towards long distance UAV missions and mobile command and control centers. This paper demonstrates new design and development of a small-scale UAV and a Ground Control Station (GCS) using GSM bidirectional communications for Non-Line of Sight (NLoS) long range control. GCSs are considered the front end node in UAV guidance process. Therefore, the proposed GCS employs a two-layer framework to consider all ground pilot requirements. Moreover, a new exploitation of global weather forecast data is added to the GCS. On the other hand, the proposed airborne system utilizes a new integration of different Commercial off-the-Shelf (COTS) components and excludes short range receivers. The ground and flight tests show that stable bidirectional GSM communication is established, reliable hardware integration is accomplished, real time performance is achieved, GCS functional fidelity is obtained, and low cost is maintained. Finally, some qualitative aspects of the proposed platform are presented to address the detailed features.Recently, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have a great potential in Research and Development (R&D) sections, due to their vital role in academic, industrial, and military applications [1]. Their applications domains cover search and rescue, reconnaissance, intelligent traffic monitoring, border patrol, disaster monitoring, and fire detection (just to name a few) [2]. Small-scale UAV copters, such as quadcopters and helicopters, have attracted many researchers for their unique characteristics. Quadcopters have Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) capability and perform different flight missions ranging from hovering to cruising with quite good agility and maneuverability. It is considered an ideal platform for nonlinear control law research and a good test bench for trajectory planning algorithms for both remotely piloted and autonomous missions. Designing and implementing a smallscale UAV quadcopter is considered a challenging job [3], due to its role in reducing the gap between the theoretical studies and practical engineering methodologies. During the implementation, researchers might get stuck with many difficulties such as UAV platform specification, airborne systems, communication links, Ground Control Station (GCS) software capabilities [4], and the multiplexed data logging of different inputs and outputs for the Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). Owing to the advent of Microelectromechanical System (MEMS) technology, the airborne systems are shrinking in size and weight. Moreover, using the Commercial offthe-Shelf (COTS) components, it is possible to develop airborne avionics system for a small-scale UAV quadcopter Hindawi Publishing Corporation rectional GSM communication for both uplink and downlink with latency less than 30...

Security Engineering has some features that are intrinsically different from Software (Reliability) Engineering. Traditional software engineering environments are not adequate and effective for designing, developing, managing, and maintaining secure software systems. This paper presents our development of ISEE, an information security engineering environment we are developing, that integrates various tools and provides comprehensive facilities to support design, development, management, and maintenance of security facilities of information/software systems continuously and consistently, and guides and helps all users to perform their tasks regularly according to ISO/IEC security standards. ISEE is the first real information security engineering environment.
