Continuous Integration
The BridgePoint development team understands modeling, model-driven development and the benefits of abstraction, methodology and rigor. Additionly, the team leverages the latest cloud-based technologies to support the engineering flow. GitHub, Amazon Web Services, Redmine, Jenkins, Eclipse, real-time web chatting and more combine to take requirements to deployment. A typical scenario might be as follows: A […]
Sorting Mail
Before a letter arrives in your mailbox, it has experienced hundreds of process steps in the journey from sender to receiver. Automation equipment has photographed the face of the envelope, binarized the image, located the address blocks, decoded the address blocks using optical character recognition (OCR), bar-coded the envelope with invisible barcodes (fluorescent) and robotically […]
We Like AsciiDoc

Introduction and Background The BridgePoint development team has used plain ascii text as the primary medium for design documentation since the beginning (more than 20 years now). Alternate considerations included Microsoft Word, DocBook XML and a desktop publishing system called FrameMaker. The BridgePoint engineering process prescribes “notes” to […]

1,3,5+ Application, Dialects, Architectures
Shlaer-Mellor modeling has always claimed to provide Platform Independent Models (PIMs) that can be translated with platform specific software architectures. The theory is sound…, but tangible, touchable, downloadable examples can be hard to find. Several teams of engineers have successfully re-deployed applications onto different targets, and teams have reused their software architectures (model compilers) on […]
