Abstract. Design patterns are templates of general solutions to commonlyoccurring problems in the analysis and design of software systems. In mature development processes, engineer...
Multiple, highly autonomous, satellite systems are envisioned in the near future because they are capable of higher performance, lower cost, better fault tolerance, reconfigurabil...
