Paper Title
A Comprehensive Analysis of MBD Technology in Airborne Software development

Abstract
Model Based Development (MBD) is a trending technology which aims to reduce development costs, increase the benefit from the knowledge of the field expert while minimizing errors that may occur during transfer of design items to software domain. Under the influence of this emerging technology, many industries have begun to create integrated design, development and testing environments. In the avionics industry, where competition is increasing day by day, companies have begun to effectively use MBD technologies to build aircrafts with more capabilities in less time. In this paper the traditional development approach is compared with MBD approach with a demonstrated project.In addition, certification aspects of MBD technology in the airborne software development are also mentioned.
