It is now practical to write software for real-time systems long before the actual computer hardware is sitting in a physical prototype. In today’s world it is rare to find electromechanical devices ...

How model-based systems engineering (MBSE) has improved system design. Thermal design and MBE come together. When considering systems-level design, it’s important to understand the criticality of the ...

Many designs involve multiple engineering domains. For example, hybrid vehicles balance engine performance with emissions limits; UAVs balance thermal limitations on their batteries with ...

Power consumption is often more important than performance in today’s SoC designs because of battery size and power dissipation limitations. The dilemma is that the most leverage available to optimize ...

Successful software and system modeling has been a goal of both researchers and the software-development industry. This goal is an outgrowth of the decades-long trend toward abstracting away the ...

Complexity in hardware design is spilling over to other disciplines, including software, manufacturing, and new materials, creating issues for how to model more data at multiple abstraction levels.
