The staff of the SciSys On-Board software and data systems group has over 150 man-years experience of high integrity on-board flight software encompassing all aspects of its lifecycle; from system requirements, architecture, design, and integration though to test, validation, quality assurance, operation and maintenance, and programme management.
In addition to many years software experience, most members of the group also have considerable hardware experience including the design of flight hardware for missions such as ENVISAT and Cluster. As a result of this expertise SciSys is ideally placed to perform system level software tasks as well as producing code.
SciSys has been involved in the development of On-Board Software for the following recent European Space Agency (ESA) missions:
Earth Observation
- EarthCARE
- SWARM
- Aeolus
- SMOS
- CryoSat
Space Science and Exploration
- ExoMars
- LISA Pathfinder
- Beagle 2
