Dependency models get to grips with C/C++ code
Lattix LDM for C/C++ is part of the new 2.6 version of Lattix LDM
Lattix LDM was awarded by a team of Software Development editors, columnists and industry gurus who felt that Lattix LDM 'jolted' the industry with its innovative approach to managing software architecture. 'Whenever we come across a new head-slapper product that we feel developers should be including into their developer toolchest, we're doubly excited', says Rosalyn Lum, Technical Editor for Dr Dobb's Journal.
'Lattix LDM is one of those jewels.
As one judge says: 'This is a product I want to use'.
'It's got a very nice approach to actually measuring and visualising the coupling and cohesion of a large system's architecture'.

'It also lets you modify the subsystems and packages so that you can improve the robustness'.
'On behalf of Lattix, I'd like to thank the Jolt judges for recognising the power and potential of this new approach', said Neeraj Sangal, cofounder and President.
'The lightweight dependency model approach will have profound implications on how software systems are designed, developed and maintained'.
Lattix has pioneered an approach that uses system interdependencies to create an accurate blueprint of large, mission-critical software systems.
Lattix LDM is the first product to use a dependency-structure matrix for a highly compact and scaleable representation of an entire system.
With the LDM approach, architects and developers can analyse their architecture in detail, quickly identify issues and opportunities for improvement, and then specify design rules to formalise and communicate that architecture to the entire development organisation.
Lattix LDM enables companies to improve and maintain quality, enhance testability, lower costs through more effective development and manage risks by understanding the impact of proposed changes.
