Modular Open System Architecture, or MOSA, has long been a principal design consideration in the private sector but has not historically been a major focus in defense acquisition. This is changing as ...

"The most unique feature of the MMT-70 family is its modular open systems architecture which was designed for low-cost development and rapid modification of guided missiles," Lofts said.

Recognizing the potential of these modular systems, researchers from The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of ...

Eagle represents the last of IBM’s first-generation System One design for quantum computing. The next generation, System Two, is being designed as a more modular architecture.

They could also apply this architecture to other solid-state quantum systems. More information: Dirk Englund, Heterogeneous integration of spin–photon interfaces with a CMOS platform, Nature (2024).

Now, the modular design of MGX gives system manufacturers the ability to more effectively meet each customer’s unique budget, power delivery, thermal design and mechanical requirements.

We posit that this new architecture instigates profound changes in the ways that firms organize for innovation in the future. We develop (1) a conceptual framework to describe the emerging organizing ...
