Abstract
The objective of the BIRD satellite project is to evaluate an innovative infrared sensor technlogy for hot-spot detection on the earth. Within the PowerBIRD project GMD FIRST provides the dependable board computer: hardware and software for the BIRD satellite of DLR. This control system was developed as hardware-software co-design using modern technology. Modern technology gave us an order of magnitude more performance over space proved technology without loosing dependability. Redundancy and parallelism was used to get high dependability from not dependable components. An object oriented approach on the operating system and application development provided a very flexible and efficient way to create and configure the system.
