theVIOLET

Overview

theVIOLET is an ecosystem-level initiative for organizing multiple engineering systems and research domains. Its architecture separates research, technical data, implementation and verification, so each can evolve with a defined purpose and ownership.

System capabilities

• Multi-system architecture

  Independent engineering systems within a common ecosystem, each with its own purpose, interfaces and lifecycle.

• Technical data packages

  System-specific requirements, architecture, design and verification information under defined ownership.

• Scientific and mathematical foundations

  Research results, models, mathematical requirements and design methods with explicit relationships to engineering work.

• Computational engineering

  A planned architecture for design, search, realization, reconstruction and transformation workflows, supported by shared mathematical foundations.

• Modular software and shared libraries

  Separate application, library and implementation boundaries so systems can reuse technical components without duplicating ownership.

• Data provenance and experiments

  Datasets, schemas, lineage, experiment context and generated artifacts connected to their producing methods.

• Research-to-engineering traceability

  Explicit links from scientific results to requirements, subsystem designs, software and verification evidence.

• Configuration and controlled evolution

  Versioned identities, registries, baselines and change-impact relationships across systems and their dependencies.

• Verification and reproducibility

  Separation of test results, validation evidence and approval records, with reproducible inputs and attributable outputs.

Relationship to WLV
