- Practical tips
- From requirements to the verification and assessment of the software architecture using the example of an embedded system (electric motor control) based on real hardware
- Throughout the exercise, you will use the modeling tool 'Enterprise Architect' (Sparx Systems), or paper and pencil as an alternative
- All participants have the following options to further use their exercises from this workshop as well as the solutions developed by MicroConsult:
- You take the files with you on a free USB stick provided by MicroConsult, or ...
- You e-mail the files to your account, or ...
- You get access to file download on request.
- For the measurement device application, you get the program code and a UML model as well as a UML model for the electric motor application.
- You get a tool and software component overview for the development of embedded software architectures
- You also get an embedded software architecture checklist summarizing all key topics. You can adapt this checklist to your project requirements.
- You get helpful notation overviews for UML (Unified Modeling Language) and SysML (Systems Modeling Language).
The software architecture training highlights the terminology and the significance of software architects.
It explains the tasks and responsibilities of software architects and their role in the project and presents state-of-the-art methods and techniques for the development of software architectures.
After the software architecture training, you are able to coordinate software architectures with your project team, to document the software architectures and to perform the main software architecture design steps yourself.
The software architecture training addresses software architects, software developers, software development managers and software team managers.
Project experience in software development; knowledge of a high-level language; principles of the UML notation for software modeling of advantage.
