The Airplane Information Management System (AIMS) is the "brains" of Boeing 777 aircraft. It uses four ARINC 629 buses to transfer information. There are 2 cabinets on each plane (left and right).

History
The Intel 80x86 processor was the first to be used for the system, in conjunction with a compiler and runtime system for the Ada programming language. Beginning in 1988 and continuing for a number of years, Honeywell Air Transport Systems worked together with consultants from DDC-I in collaboration to retarget and optimize the DDC-I Ada compiler to the AMD 29050 architecture for use in full scale development. The Airplane Information Management System software would become arguably the best-known of any Ada project, civilian or military. Some 550 developers at Honeywell worked on the flight system.
