Visual presentation of life cycle control model of the cross-platform onboard software

The visual presentation of the software life cycle control model is considered in this scientific paper. A realization of the control model is connected with identifying the semantics, properties and attributes of formation stages, implementation and maintenance of software. For research themethodology IDEF0 is applied. The software lifecycle control model is obtained in a graphical notation. Functional modeling of complex processes, associated not only with development, but also with testing and long-term maintenance of onboard software, is described and presented. It is shown that visual modeling tools are able to be as an effective mean of making control decisions.
