  INDUSTRY ARTICLES  
  Reinventing the Software Development Strategy  
  Agile development isn’t a new concept, but its adoption is gaining momentum. Find out how companies are reinventing their software development strategy to speed up development cycles, shorten the feedback loop for market input, reduce the incidence of bugs, and provide greater visibility into the progress of the product’s release.

  Domain Specific Languages for Development of Software-Defined Radio Components  
  C and C++ provide the developer with strong system control but are not the most efficient means to solve certain classes of problems. Domain-specific, higher order languages have long been used to more effectively tackle complex, but well defined software systems. Read more about high order languages and their value in developing software-defined radio components.

  Is Software the New Hardware?  
  Simulation using software prototypes (models) of hardware design has traditionally suffered from poor performance (slow execution times) and inadequate information. Nonetheless, simulation techniques have come a long way. Today's virtual prototypes can handle entire systems, modeling components, signals and hardware-software interactions with a high level of accuracy. The result is a new product design flow that emphasizes hardware and software
co-development.
