TY - JOUR AB - This paper discusses the year 2000 problem. After briefly introducing why there is a problem the paper investigates its origins and consequences. Key to resolving the problem of compliance is the need to define what compliance means; this issue is touched on. Attention is then given to the problem of embedded systems and how they are affected by the year 2000 problem. As many avionics applications are supported by such systems this is an important and relevant topic. The paper then goes on to identify potential avionics applications that may be impacted by the problem. The last part of the paper briefly discusses how the problem may be addressed and resolved.
