Purpose

The »Decision Gate »Detailed Design Completed includes the final evaluation of the capacity of the hardware and software architecture.

In case of a positive decision, the detailed »Hardware Specification and »Software Specification and the products of the types External Hardware Module Specification and External Software Module Specification are completed, which will be used for realizing the future units. In addition, the hardware and software test and integration concepts are completed, which will be used for checking the functionality of implemented units. The products »Hardware Architecture, »Software Architecture and a »Logistic Support Concept will be submitted. By means of these products, the system elements can be realized or suitable products of the types External Hardware Module, External Software Module and External Unit can be selected, which will later become »System Integrated. In addition, the »Evaluation Specification System Element will be completed for all system elements.

A detailed »Project Plan includes the planning for the following »Project Progress Stage. The »Project Status Report documents the project progress, and the »Quality Status Report describes the quality characteristics of the project. In addition, the hazards connected with the project are documented in a »Safety and Security Analysis.

A »Project Progress Decision will be made in order to proceed to the next decision gate.
