Lunchlezing Philips Healthcare

Dinsdag 11 december is het weer tijd voor een lunchlezing, ditmaal verzorgd door Rob Albers. Hij is Software Architect bij Philips Healthcare.

Titel: Software Evolution at Philips Healthcare interventional X-ray (iXR)

Interventional X-ray R&D is responsible for the research and development of X-ray systems used for interventional treatment of heart and vascular diseases (e.g. “dottering” and “stent” placement).
Multiple system configurations for different application areas exist, from low end to high end with system software of more than 20 million LOC, programming languages from VHDL to C# and some source code as old as 1988.
Every year a major system release is rolled-out with new functionality and improved performance. As a result, a continuous evolution of the architecture and design takes place, based on changed market demands, cost reduction, new technology or architecture degradation. In this lunch lecture, we will discuss practical experiences and common pitfalls with re-architecting strategies, challenges based on architecture degradation and opportunities for model-driven development.

BELANGRIJK: Afgelopen lezing zagen we erg veel mensen die zich niet of erg laat hadden ingeschreven. Voor deze mensen was geen eten besteld, maar ze aten wel mee. Doordat mensen die wel inschreven daar de dupe van werden, sluiten we nu de inschrijving op dinsdagmorgen, 9.30u! Hierna kun je de lezing bijwonen, maar krijg je geen lunch meer!
