During their usage, software systems have to be changed constantly. If such changes are implemented in an incomplete or inconsistent way a loss of architectural quality will occur...
—Connecting system-level performance models with circuit information has been a long-standing problem in analog/mixed-signal front-ends, like radios and high-speed links. High-sp...
