Increasing the importance of software in products
Description:
Software is an extraordinary technology.
Software products potentially have long economic lives & very high profit margins.
Many businesses find that software is the most economical way to implement
logic functions & the only way to implement complex logic functions
The software growth trend appears likely to continue. Software systems will get much larger.
Enablers:
● The volume of software grow...
- more applications - more users for each application - more code required per application
Inhibitors:
● Cost, schedule, and quality problems will be worse with larger systems
Paradigms:
Future products will use more software and be more complex those of today.
In product development software is the most economical and reliable way to
implement almost any sophisticated functions. Software is now a critical
element of computers, television sets, cell phones, and automobiles.
(from "The winning of software" : Watts Humphrey)
Below picture can show the typical example. Today, the 80% of aircraft
functionality is up to software.
