Systems Architecture
The Architect is responsible for the conceptual integrity of all aspects of the solution as perceived by you the client by representing your interests in the tradeoffs among Function, Performance, Cost, and Schedule.
Bringing together our knowledge, creativity, & skills, we architect elegant solutions to tough engineering challenges, across many areas of expertise. Our Architects are skilled in a wide variety of industries including acoustics, automation, cryptography, communications systems, electronics, fuel cell reforming, medical products, production test systems, refrigeration, CT explosives detection, and super-premium ice cream.
By separating analysis from design, we allow our architects to understand the problem to be solved, before we set out to create a solution or start writing code. We use proven frameworks and re-usable design patterns to quickly deploy reliable, flexible, software systems that offer high performance and are easy to deploy and maintain.
Taken further, by decoupling Views (the user interface layer) from Models (a device abstraction layer) from Controllers (deterministic state machines), our development approach allows us to deliver time-tested code, customized for your solution, much faster than starting from scratch.
Our proprietary "no wiring" user interface libraries, for instance, allows us to quickly modify display screens to offer multiple views of the system without writing additional code. We can create complex user interface screen prototypes in hours, not weeks. And to change an existing panel, we can add fully-functional screen controls & indicators in minutes, not days.
We present you with Solution Options, and let you decide how you would like to proceed. |
