Clojure is a robust, practical, and fast programming language with a set of useful features that together form a simple, coherent, and powerful tool. Clojure is a dynamic, general-purpose programming language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language, yet remains completely dynamic, every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection. Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language and features a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures. When a mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system.

It enables Team Collaboration on all important aspects of the Engineering Lifecycle, such as: - Requirements Management - Data-Driven Functional Design - Product Architecture - Detailed Systems Design & Simulation - Automated Verification - Live Documentation It also allows for cross-lifecycle process improvements, such as: - Agile Engineering Planning - Technical Change Management In comparison to siloed Requirement Management Systems or Model Based Systems Engineering expert-tools, its data-driven architecture enables agile hardware development across departments with a digital thread along the engineering lifecycle. Valispace’s proprietary calculation engine propagates changes instantly to users, requirements, architecture, verifications and documentation. Therefore, its introduction into the engineering process reduces costs by significantly shortening development times, as well as by preventing design mistakes which usually lead to expensive rework.
