Architecting unmanned systems: How suppliers can adapt to disruptive requirements changes - Story
April 15, 2015
Unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) are relatively new additions to the arsenal of weapons available to the military, and the technology is evolving rapidly. Beyond the normal course of advancing technology, additional factors are driving change in UAS development such as budget realities that necessitate the adoption of open architectures and increased UAS operation in civilian airspace that requires support of commercial safety standards. Also, software developers who wish to supply the military (or commercial clients) with UAS technology must quickly respond by adopting a new approach to the way they develop systems for unmanned aircraft. Not heeding these disruptive forces may leave suppliers out in the cold.

Data-centric mediation tools resolve the legacy source-code conundrum - Story
October 09, 2013
Government acquisition policies and contracts have assumed that source code equaled control of portability, extensibility, and interoperability. Unfortunately, control is an illusion. The reality is that the DoD now has millions of lines of code, divorced from their original architects and developers, that the government seeks to reuse - and it often costs more to reuse than to develop from scratch.

Data-centric architectural best practices: Using DDS to integrate real-world distributed systems - Story
September 04, 2013
More and more real-world, complex distributed systems are integrated using a Data-Centric Publish-Subscribe approach, specifically the programming model defined by the Object Management Group (OMG) known as the Data Distribution Service (DDS) specification. The DDS Publish-Subscribe approach meets many challenging requirements - supporting large-scale, high-performance, and constrained-bandwidth systems on both powerful machines and embedded platforms. DDS has been used across a wide variety of applications in the defense, robotics, transportation, medical, and financial industries. The following discussion provides a set of architectural "best practices" guidelines that should be applied when using DDS to integrate complex, real-world systems.
