"To be clear, this is a very complex and sophisticated system with more than a million lines of software," a spokesman said.
It could be possible, for example, to tell instantly how the millions of lines of software running a network of satellites would react to a solar burst or a pulse from a nuclear explosion — something that can now take weeks, if ever, to determine.
I.B.M. plans to announce today that it is contributing more than half a million lines of its software code, valued at $85 million, to an open source software group.
A million lines of software code control a 180-pound collimator with 80 tungsten teeth that slide in and out, creating an ever-changing aperture.
Waaaay back in June, Sony announced their mid-range Xperia X8, to compliment their top-o-the-line (but in serious need of a software upgrade) X10.
Fewer products are doing more tasks — all accomplished by countless lines of massless software code.
The robots in Dr. Balch's experiments are nothing more than a few lines of software code, gradually taught to play soccer on a computer screen.
This iconoclastic programmer, who had combined one good idea with the right few lines of software to make an overnight fortune, wanted something radical out of the philanthropy business.
This is even more crucial in case of institutionalization of a software product line practice within an organization.
In the future, we expect to modify our approach to attend functional concerns, such as features of a software product line [35].
To understand why and how this change occurs, we have followed the development of a software product line organization for a period of approximately five years.
