ask detailed probing questions as needed to construct accurate and
efficient models.
- Partition overall systems to be modeled into lower level blocks
while keeping modularity, re-use, and test requirements in

we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference.
Here's how we do it. We embrace digital, and help our customers
implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we're
"old" (30 years strong!) and only about hardware, but we're also a
software company. And a security company. An AI/Machine Learning
company. We even invented an intuitive network that adapts,
predicts, learns, and protects. No other company can do what we do
- you can't put us in a box! But "Digital Transformation" is an
empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation,
creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.) Day to
day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, we give our
egos a break, and we give of ourselves (because giving back is
built into our DNA.) We take accountability, we take bold steps,
and we take difference to heart. Because without diversity of
thought and a commitment to equality for all, there is no moving
forward.
