	Foundation Fieldbus Architecture from Smar
		FOUNDATION fieldbus is an all-digital, serial, two-way communications system that serves as a Local Area Network (LAN) for factory/plant instrumentation and control devices.
		FOUNDATION fieldbus is used in both process and manufacturing automation applications and has a built-in capability to distribute the control application across the network.
		While FOUNDATION fieldbus retains many of the desirable features of the 4-20 mA analog system, such as a standardized physical interface to the wire, bus-powered devices on a single wire, and intrinsic safety options, it offers a host of additional benefits to users.

	Windows Presentation Foundation Architecture
		One of the primary architectural philosophies we used in building WPF was a preference for properties over methods or events.
		The foundation of the WPF property system is the concept of a property expression.
		With a deeper investigation into the architecture of WPF, you'll find that there is the possibility for creating much richer applications that fundamentally treat data as the core driver of the application.

	CORBA-Served PIA Foundation Classes: Foundation Architecture
		There is a strong desire to maintain the architectural form established by the C++ realization of the architecture so as to minimize outlying code impact of the migration to the CORBA-Served form.
		The service-activation architecture (that is, the "finger of activity" that brings active instances into the server and flushes inactive ones back out to disk) is almost totally driven by the expected size of practical PIA applications.
		As such, a Foundation Layer server is pretty much oblivious to anything outside itself; it has no knowledge of other servers, no concept of a user beyond that of client code invoking methods, a little functionality beyond turning various diagnostic logs on and off.

		It was the modern architecture and skyscrapers tour.
		I was in Chicago this weekend and went on a fascinating two-hour walking tour of early skyscrapers, dating from the late 1800s to the 1930s.
		Our guide was amiable and well-informed, and pointed out so many architectural details that I’d seen over and over again, but had never really given much thought to how it fit into larger historical trends.
