The emergence of smaller components with more processing capability while operating at much lower power has had the counterintuitive effect of increasing thermal density, with designers expected to pack even more functionality into ever-smaller spaces.

First offering, a Software Defined Radio (SDR) and Electronic Warfare (EW) base system speed development of high-performance deployed applications.
