Organizing message transmission in AFDX networks

In this paper, a problem of periodical message transmission in the onboard networks based on the Avionics Full Duplex Ethernet (AFDX) standard is formalized and an algorithm for solving this problem is proposed. The algorithm combines the greedy approach with the limited exhaustive search and consists of several procedures to solve the problem step by step with respect to the constraints imposed. The results of the experimental research aimed at investigating the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm are presented.
