Decoupling application logic from hardware lets engineers test firmware on host machines instead of waiting for dev boards.

According to IEEE 1471, “A software architecture is the fundamental organization of a system embodied in its components, their relationship to each other and the environment, and the principles ...

Graceful Shutdown: Ensuring the motor and controller are shut down safely when the application is stopped. If the application operates on a multicore MCU/DSP/FPGA, an appropriate inter-core ...

Software architecture is the high‐level blueprint of a software system, delineating its main components, their interactions, and the underlying design principles that govern their organisation. It ...

Apparently, software architecture is only about structuring software and implementing non-functional requirements. But in reality, software is for people and people write software. Therefore, it is ...
