Application Lifecycle Management
Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) is integral not only in the military and avionics embedded technology realm - rife with product obsolescence - but also in the larger, more fast-paced embedded realm encompassing consumer, medical, smart grid, gaming, and many other application types.... More In essence, anywhere embedded software development takes place, an ALM software platform can help designers and program managers to manage and coordinate all of an application’s or project’s artifacts and activities. Specifically, an ALM platform provides holistic coordination of all software design processes as a whole: system design, modeling, requirements management, defect management, test management, configuration management, and release management. Additionally, there’s the challenge of managing safety-critical applications’ traceability across disciplines; however, this too can be managed with an ALM software platform. Some ALM software includes compliance with standards such as MISRA, DO-178B, and the Homeland Security Agency’s Common Weakness Enumerations (CWE), among others. Closely tied to ALM is Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), which enables software designers to increase operational efficiency during a product’s lifetime. The Bill of Materials (BoM) is central to this process of growing efficiency, and PLM software provides a way to manage a product’s BOM from conception to obsolescence.

Life cycle management, semiconductor re-creation, and mitigating counterfeit parts
November 29, 2018 — John McHale, Editorial Director, OpenSystems MediaObsolescence management continues to be a challenge for military system designers, who are faced with designing for platforms that must last decades but using components that become obsolete in 18 months. In the following Q and A with Daniel Deisz, Director of Design Technology at Rochester Electronics, he discusses how Department of Defense (DoD) planners need to build in life cycle management costs in projects up front, the advantages of authorized re-creation or porting of semiconductor components for extending the life of parts, the importance of testing for aftermarket solutions, and how best to mitigate the spread of counterfeit components in the defense supply chain. Edited excerpts follow.

Component obsolescence is a concern across system development
August 29, 2017 — Doug Patterson, AitechComponent obsolescence is nothing new, and the problem isn’t going away. While electronics innovations may move industry forward on one hand, the downside is that some electronics get left in the dust, no matter how widely adopted they may have been at one point.
