About this technology
Overview
The Core Flight Executive (cFE) is a software framework designed for use on embedded systems. The cFE defines an Application Programmer Interface (API) to the following services: Software Bus, Time Services, Event Services, Executive Services, Table Services, and File Services. The cFE defines a portable application runtime environment that allows developers to rebuild the same applications code and run it on many different hardware/operating system platforms. The same application code can be developed and unit tested on a desktop environment then ported to the target-embedded processor for final verification and validation.
