Automobile safety depends on the correct operation of software systems that are built from many different components. For good design, these components must be isolated, on multiple axes, so they ...

Software components are “binary units of independent production, acquisition, and deployment that interact to form a functioning system.”1 In basic terms, software components are pieces of software ...

OntoSpace software lets users measure the complexity of almost any system — for example, mechanical components or assemblies — that can be described by input and output variables. We use the software ...

The last three articles have explored the five steps to designing an embedded software architecture. So far, we’ve separated our software architecture into hardware-dependent and independent ...

In today's lightning-fast software landscape, traditional architecture practices are becoming a bottleneck. The velocity and complexity of systems scaling across ephemeral microservices, complex APIs ...

When The MathWorks introduced Matlab technical-computing software more than 20 years ago, many of the first users were control-system designers. Anyone who had laboriously inverted matrices by hand to ...
