The VNL sleeper area was designed to offer the driver a calm, restful space for their hours off the road. The VNL lineup now includes a full 70" sleeper option, providing an efficient yet spacious living area. The bunks are broader and more stable, featuring embedded spring mattresses surrounded by an extra layer of foam. Cabinet doors now open toward the back to create more space. Even the cupholders were upgraded by making them modular so they can be adjusted to the most convenient position. Softer, more consistent LED lighting creates a more peaceful environment and keeps power consumption low. When it’s time to rest, airline-style window shades block light with one simple motion. The new double-sided 100% blackout curtain slides easily into place, while ambient lighting for the footwell allows night movement without an overhead light. Volvo has long been known for comfort, but one step inside this sleeper and you’ll see that it’s the finest living environment we’ve ever produced. An industry first. Volvo is proud to offer the first integrated, reclining bunk in a sleeper. Fully adjustable, it’s like putting your favorite easy chair in the cab. A pillowtop, innerspring mattress can be added for even greater comfort. At your fingertips. The sleeper control panel can be used to lock the doors, adjust bunk heating and cooling, and set audio levels. An adjacent desk top swivels off the back wall for meals or to watch movies on your tablet. Need assistance? Just press the “panic” button to call attention to your vehicle. Moving on up. An integrated telescopic step ladder is now standard with the VNL 760 and 860. The ladder deploys easily when needed, while rugged retention latches keep the ladder securely in place when stowed. 10 Learn more: USA: VNL.volvotrucks.us | CAN: VNL.volvotrucks.ca Learn more: USA: VNL.volvotrucks.us | CAN: VNL.volvotrucks.ca 11 VNL 860 The ultimate high-roof truck.

  • Technical, Organisational and Social Aspects of Language Integration for Complex Systems
    Putting the Pieces Together { Technical, Organisational and Social Aspects of Language Integration for Complex Systems H˚akan Burden Computer Science and Engineering Chalmers University of Technology and University of Gothenburg Gothenburg, Sweden [email protected] Abstract. Dealing with heterogenuous systems is often described as a technical challenge in scientific publications. We analysed data from 25 interviews from a study of Model-Driven Engineering at three companies and found that while the technical aspects are important, they do not encompass the full challenge { organizational and social factors also play an important role in managing heterogenuous systems. This is true not only for the development phase but also for enabling early validation of interdependent systems, where processes and attitudes have an impact on the outcome of the integration. Keywords: Empirical and Exploratory Case Study, Model-Driven Engineering 1 Introduction Complex systems, consisting of numerous and interdependent subsystems [15], require a plethora of languages for efficient implementation [7]. From the as- pect of Model-Driven Engineering (MDE), the challenges are often described in technical terms [4] since heterogenuous languages imply different abstraction levels, representations and aspects of software [8], but also since the languages have their own domain-specific and platform-dependent constraints [11]. The one-sided focus on technical aspects is surprising since Kent already in 2002 pointed out that if MDE is to be successful it needs to encompass also the or- ganisational and social aspects of software engineering [10], a claim that has since been reiterated [1, 9]. To explore to what extent language integration for comlex systems is a chal- lenge in terms of technical, organisational and social aspects we analysed data collected at three different companies, looking for evidence regarding the mo- tivations and challenges of heterogenuous development of embedded systems.
