The impact of the Internet of Things on product development: Discover how to transform your engineering processes and tools to gain a competitive advantage from the Internet of Things
This white paper explores how you can use the best practices of continuous engineering to harness the power of the IoT and increase the pace of innovation to obtain a strategic advantage.
With continuous validation and verification practices and solutions, engineering organizations can develop today's smarter products and create the opportunities that can put them on the path to competitive advantage.
The clear benefits of agile development—better collaboration, incremental delivery, early error detection and the elimination of unnecessary work—have made it the default approach for many teams. Agile methods are also being adopted by systems engineering teams to deliver the same benefits. Some developers have questioned whether requirements fall into the category of unnecessary work, and can be cut down or even completely eliminated. Meanwhile, teams developing complex products, systems and regulated IT continue to have requirements-driven legacy processes.
So how does requirements management fit in an agile world? This paper argues that requirements management can bring significant value to agile development in regulated IT and complex product development projects, and sets out the characteristics of an effective requirements management approach in an agile environment.
Agile methods have proven effective for software development and have grown in popularity across a number of software disciplines. Agile methods build capabilities using an iterative approach, as opposed to traditional approaches where requirements are defined early and designs are completed in full before a single line of code is written. Agile incrementally defines requirements with priorities, partial component designs and working systems that evolve through iterations called sprints.
The question remains, however: Do the 12 agile principles apply to more than just software? Agile principles are in line with lean management’s approach. Given that, it seems as though agile principles should directly apply beyond software development. However, the answer is not straightforward, because differences between software and physical components affect how agile is applied. Let’s explore how agile can be applied in light of these differences.

Continuous engineering is explained in easy to understand terms in this Dummies book, appropriate for all levels of product and systems development stakeholders.
This paper explains the methods and approaches that can enable continuous verification and validation and introduces a solution from IBM and National Instruments that designed for that purpose.
Medical Device companies have typically shied away from design reuse because of the fear of a single point of failure. However due to market pressures, more and more medical device companies must embrace reuse to increase time to market. Unlike common perception, strategic and effective reuse can actually benefit regulated industries like medical devices by expediting compliance. This webcast will discuss the benefits of reuse as well as concepts of continuous engineering that can improve quality for medical devices.
