Phoenix, AZ – February 10, 2026. DDC-I, a leading supplier of software and professional services for mission- and safety-critical applications, today announced that it will present at the 2026 MOSA Virtual Summit. Hosted by Military Embedded Systems on February 26, 2026, the on-line summit will focus on applying open architecture in avionics, radar, EW, & C5ISR systems.
DDC-I will join Session 2 – a free, one-hour session on “MOSA at the Edge Across Multiple Domains: Air, Land, Sea, Space, Spectrum”, which will be held on Thursday, February 26 at 1:00 PM EST. Presenting for DDC-I will be Gary Gilliland, Vice President of Marketing at DDC-I.
In military applications, the edge most often refers to where one engages the adversary and sensors collect the data, regardless of domain – air, land, sea, space, and electromagnetic spectrum. Enabling a modular open systems approach (MOSA) at the edge involves the ways in which open architecture initiatives and open standards can be applied across these domains and across edge devices including sensors and communications systems. This session covers how MOSA architectures bring commercial innovation that can lead to a battlefield advantage through smart sensor processing, collection, and analysis at the edge.
“Deos was built from the ground up with a modular architecture and standard interfaces that emphasize portability, scalability and reuse,” said Gary Gilliland, Vice President of Marketing at DDC-I. “We look forward to sharing our world class, safety-critical MOSA technology and discussing ways to leverage that technology at the edge to enhance US warfighting capability.”

About Deos
Deos™ is a safety-critical embedded real-time operating system (RTOS) that employs patented cache partitioning, memory pools, and safe scheduling to deliver higher CPU utilization than any other certifiable safety-critical COTS RTOS while also addressing AC/AMC 20-193 multi-core objectives. The Deos environment also offers security features, middleware, networking, and other components often desired for modern embedded systems.
Deos is employed in commercial and military ground, marine, air, and space systems where reliability and determinism are paramount. Rooted initially in avionics, Deos was first certified to DO-178 DAL A (the utmost software process standard) in 1998 and is deployed in over 10,000 commercial aircraft. Deos is aligned with modern military initiatives such as FACE®, MOSA, PYRAMID and others.
Deos offers a modular approach, uniquely at the object code level, which isolates deterministic applications from changes when other modules are added, removed, or modified. This modularity improves application and system component reuse and reduces the cost of change for system improvements.
SafeMC™ technology extends Deos’ advanced capabilities to multiple cores, enabling developers of safety-critical systems to achieve best in class multi-core performance without compromising safety-critical task response and guaranteed execution time. SafeMC employs a bounded multiprocessing (BMP) extension of the symmetric multiprocessing architecture (SMP), safe scheduling, and cache partitioning to minimize cross-core contention and interference patterns that affect the performance, safety criticality and certifiability of multi-core systems.
