Partnering with the CCDC Aviation & Missile Center鈥檚 Systems Simulation, Software & Integration Directorate (S3I), the goal of the workshops was to gather bright minds to discuss safety-critical applications.

鈥淚dentifying and mitigating numerous risk elements associated with the introduction of (multi-core processors) into Army aviation systems is a significant challenge,鈥� said Josh McNeil, software airworthiness division chief for S3I.

鈥淭he MCP solutions workshop was a success as it brought together stakeholders from industry, academia, the Army and other DoD organizations from across the country to discuss the risk areas and solutions to the challenge. An emerging outcome of this workshop is the formation of a new community of interest focused on certification requirements, standards development, and implementation guidance for MCPs used in safety-critical applications.鈥�

鈥淔irePoint is pleased to partner with the CCDC Aviation & Missile Center on bringing together a community of interest to work on this important issue,鈥� said Peter Perna, FirePoint executive director. 鈥淎irworthiness qualification of multi-core processors is a challenge shared not just by our military, but by general and commercial aviation as well. We鈥檙e looking forward to continuing our work to support the center鈥檚 leadership in this area.鈥�

A parcourse is an outdoor gym with exercise stations, open to the public. The new facility replaces a parcourse near Heskett funded by the Kouris three decades ago. Weather and age contributed to its decline over the years. The new parcourse, also funded through contributions from the Kouris, has eight fitness stations, three of which are accessible to both disabled and able-bodied individuals. It is built on a rubberized foundation.

鈥淚鈥檒l miss watching kids come in and grow into young adults,鈥� Vadakin said. 鈥淚鈥檝e always believed that you have to coach the entire person, not just the athlete. Because of that, the coaching staff here gets very involved in their personal lives. I get to watch these student-athletes grow up and mature into adults, graduate with their degrees, and enter their careers. I鈥檒l miss being a part of that, the most.鈥�
