This »Product Dependency will describe the transition from system development to hardware development.

For each »Hardware Unit identified in the system architecture a »Hardware Architecture and a »Hardware Specification will be required. Starting with the hardware unit, the decomposition of the hardware elements will be carried out when the »Hardware Architecture will be developed. The decomposition of the hardware elements will be accompanied by an assignment and refinement of the interfaces and the requirements of the hardware specification.

For each hardware unit an evaluation specification and an evaluation procedure will be prepared in accordance with the specifications of the hardware implementation, integration and evaluation concept. The evaluation specification will be derived from the hardware specification. The evaluation procedure will be a detailed translation of the evaluation specification into concrete work instructions for the testing process of each individual evaluation case. The evaluation results will be documented in the evaluation report.

The integration of the tested hardware unit into the system will be described in the »System Implementation, Integration and Evaluation Concept.
