If the whole is only as good as the sum of its parts, many of our mission-critical systems are coming up short when is comes to the life expectancy of its components.
Back in the 1990’s when the COTS program was the touted as the solution for the exorbitant high cost of Mil Spec production, not many were focused on the issue of COTS board level obsolescence. Unlike the PC market, the high costs of design, installation and maintenance require the life cycle of military and commercial embedded computing systems to be much longer. Unfortunately many of the components working within the system were not designed for such a long-term service. If a single board computer working within a 6U VME chassis needs to be replaced many time the systems engineer will find this board is no longer available due to the OEM discontinuing support or component obsolescence. Maintaining these component parts of the whole system becomes integral for this commercial off the shelf equipment.
