Perspectives

A clear point of view on how systems should work.

Concise, argument-led articles that begin with an operational tension and make a useful case about architecture, integration or service design.

Format purpose

What belongs in this format.

The entries below are editorial prototypes created to demonstrate the expected standard. Replace them with approved manuscripts before production publication.
