Keywords: ima, reconfiguration, safety assessment

The next generation of IMA platforms should include reconfiguration capabilities in order to limit the effect of hardware failures on aircraft operational reliability. We investigate architecture principles for such platforms and propose adequate reconfiguration services. A preliminary analysis of the design feasibility and its contribution to operational reliability is performed.
