During the project planning phase, the two most important components are the product requirements and the architectural design. These components create a clear vision for how the product should be engineered. The goal of the architectural design specification (ADS) document is to define the platform software architecture and to provide an assessment of the impact […]
The purpose of product / software requirements is to identify the true needs of the product and bring these requirements to life by engineering the software properly, the first time. Requirements are a best practice of quality software engineering and extremely vital to project success. Without an organized and concise format, a non-technical project champion […]
Device manufactures strive to create revolutionary technology for this ever-evolving world. As the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) has created a growing need for connected devices, various industries have coined their own terminology that represents this concept within their own specific vertical.
