Software Reliability for Space: A Model-Based Approach with SCADE and STK

Overview

Software failures in space can lead to mission-critical consequences, from total system shutdowns to loss of control in extreme environments. This webinar, the final session in our Space Survivability series, showcases the crucial role of software reliability in ensuring mission success. We’ll explore how Ansys SCADE enables the development of safety-critical software through a model-based approach that includes automated code generation, robust Verification & Validation (V&V), and certification support. Additionally, you’ll discover how integrating SCADE with Ansys STK connects embedded software design with real-world mission scenarios, improving both system survivability and performance.

A live Satellite Attitude Controller demonstration will showcase how this integrated workflow empowers engineers to simulate, validate, and deploy space software that is resilient, responsive, and ready for orbit.
