Conference Theme
AVIONICS’ RESPONSIBILITY FOR SAFE AND SUSTAINABLE NEXT GENERATION AEROSPACE OPERATIONS
Digital avionics are the foundation for the kind of aviation and space flight we feel familiar with today, but aerospace finds itself in an era of tremendous changes: societal demands and geopolitical changes are transforming aerospace towards higher customization, more autonomy, greener operation and faster adaptability.
Digital avionics systems are the core enablers for many of the new technologies, functions, and operations necessitated by these changes. Furthermore, avionics systems will need to undergo a transformation towards reduced carbon footprint, higher calculation power, lower latency, and higher flexibility - all while maintaining safety and security levels and decreasing certification times: a huge responsibility for the digital avionics systems of the future.
The 44th DASC will investigate the responsibility of digital avionics for the next generation of air and space vehicles to come. We provide the forum to present solutions making aerospace transformation possible, analyze open issues, and discuss disruptive ideas.
You are invited to present your research addressing current and future challenges of avionics systems and exchange diverse perspectives with the world’s leading experts in the field.
Fields of Interest
Emphasized are methods, tool, systems and functions for:
The DASC encourages leading research & applications of the following fields but is open to other related topics as well.
- Air Traffic Management (ATM)
- Avionics Platforms
- Avionics Technologies
- Communications, Navigation, And Surveillance
And Information Networks - Cyber, Systems, And Software (-Engineering)
- Human Factors
- Unmanned Aircraft Systems & Uncrewed
Spacecraft (UAS/USS) - Urban, Advanced Air Mobility & New Space
Paper Submission
- Authors can submit a paper that is in accordance to DASC’s theme and/or fields of interest. The submission is two staged
- First, an 1-page extended abstract needs to be submitted
- Second, on abstract acceptance, a full paper with up to 10 pages (including everything) can to be submitted which is peer-reviewed.
- Accepted papers must be presented on the conference in person to become part of the proceedings.
- Format information will be provided later
- Paper submission opens in 2025
Panel Submission
Process will be announced later this year.
Technical Committee
DASC is a competitive conference seeking for leading edge contributions and high-quality papers. Submissions will go through selection process by our technical committee, judging based on relevance, novelty, soundness, level of contribution, quality. More technical committee members to follow later.
