Light Weight Architecture revisited: the way of the future?

abstract Technological developments change the consumer electronics market into a very dynamic market. CE manufacturers are used to realize product innovation by means of standardization, inside products as well as between products. Standardization and innovation are often conflicting activities. An approach is discussed to optimize the balance, based on "light-weight architectures".

The weight of an architecture determines how easy an architecture can be realized, changed and applied. An heavy architecture has many mandatory rules, which apply always and everywhere, with a large degree of detail. An heavy architecture provides a lot of certainties and control, but is more difficult to adapt to changing circumstances.
