Architecture
Architect is composed of the following major components:
- Systems
- Tradebooks
- LUTs
Let's describe each in turn.
Systems form the backbone of Architect; they are individual collections of mathematical models, represented as classes.
Mathematical models are described in UTAT's Mathematical Modelling database
A tradebook is an interactive Python notebook used to conduct tradeoff analyses and visualizations. Tradebooks are the interface through which Architect's library of systems are connected together to run meaningful analyses.
Lookup tables (LUTS) are data structures used to represent data that is 2-dimensional. An example of a typical LUT is the quantum efficiency of a sensor. You can read more about lookup tables here.
