Abstract:
An example apparatus (600) includes a non-certified computing platform (102; 302; 400; 602), a certified computing platform (102; 302; 400; 604) and a user interface (404). The non-certified computing platform (102; 302; 400; 602) includes first hardware (606) and is configured to host non-certified software. The certified computing platform (102; 302; 400; 604) is separate and distinct from the non-certified computing platform (102; 302; 400; 602), and it includes second hardware (616) and is configured to host certified software in a partitioned environment. The user interface (404) is coupled to both platforms and includes a display (416; 628) coupled to both the first hardware (606) and second hardware (616) via a controllable switch (630). According to this example, the non-certified computing platform (102; 302; 400; 602) and certified computing platform (102; 302; 400; 604) are configured to host the non-certified software and certified software such that both are capable of operating concurrently.
