ISO/IEC/TR 14165-313 (2013-02)

ISO/IEC 14165-313:2013(E) defines a set of features necessary to implement a real-time fibre channel network (switched fabric or arbitrated loop) supporting the FC-AE-ASM Upper Level Protocol. Fibre Channel Avionics Environment is a group of protocols and profiles that specify Fibre Channel options for devices connected by fabric and/or loop topologies that are pertinent to their use in commercial and military aerospace industries. The primary areas of interest include avionic command, control, instrumentation, simulation, signal processing and sensor/video data distribution. These application areas are characterized by a variety of requirements, among them a need for high reliability, fault tolerance, and deterministic behavior to support real-time control/response.
