The evolvable avionics systems such as the X2000 at NASA/JPL are able to have software upgrades during a long-life mission for dependability, performance and functionality improvement.
The high-performance, scalability and miniaturization requirements together with the power, mass and cost constraints mandate the use of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components and standards in the X2000 avionics system architecture for deep-space missions.
The JPL X2000 program is for the delivery of advanced avionics systems, cutting edge technologies, and avionics components to spacecraft/orbiter, micro/nano-spacecraft, and in-situ missions. The objective is to develop and deliver avionics systems that will serve a multitude of future missions over the next 12 to 15 years.
X2000 is a technology program at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory to develop enabling technologies for future flight missions at affordable cost.
With respect to the long-life missions associated with NASA's X2000 Advanced Deep-Space System Development Program, reliability implies a system's continuous operation for many years in an unsurveyed radiation-intense environment.
The X2000 is a NASA program to develop technologies to enable faster, better and cheaper space missions in the future.
The long-life deep-space missions associated with NASA's X2000 Advanced Flight Systems Program creates many unprecedented challenges for us.
