fails it switches to Emergency mode. In this mode the pressure is supplied via an accumulator.<br />

Due to the limited capacity it is not possible to apply and release the brakes multiple times so<br />

that it must be ensured that Anti-Skid Shut-Off Valve is disabled.<br />

Please note, that the models we are presenting in the following sections might slightly<br />

differ in some details from the ARP 4761 and that we do not show each perspective on each<br />

abstraction level for the sake of brevity.<br />

5.1.3.2 Abstraction Levels, Perspectives and Design Steps<br />

In this section, we present how the wheel braking system is modeled on three abstraction levels<br />

(Aircraft Level, System Level, Device Level) using the <strong>SPES</strong> architecture modeling concepts.<br />

A fourth abstraction level named Unit Level is described in section 5.1.3.5. The example currently<br />

covers four different perspectives starting with the operational perspective on Aircraft<br />

Level where user-activities and actors that operate the system are identified. This is usually the<br />

first design-step we consider in this framework and builds the reference for succeeding phases.<br />

When all needs of operational actors are acquired, in the functional perspective the functions<br />

are modeled that realize the operational activities. Furthermore, these functions may be decomposed<br />

into subfunctions. In the logical perspective logical components are defined that realize<br />

the functions identified in the previous step. A technical perspective is not part of the Aircraft<br />

Level.<br />

On the System Level, the logical architecture is refined by decomposition and an initial technical<br />

architecture is proposed that is refined at the Device Level by adding redundant components<br />

due to safety reasons.<br />
