What's not rocket science is the philosophy of the design, and good design.
But that's not the design itself. The specific design is closer to rocket science.
Philosophy:
Tentacular design:
Every subsystem has some dependencies on other systems.
Any dependencies:
Common Macros, variables, common data, common timing, methods, subroutines, events that influence,
waiting for thread loops (WFMO is wait for multiple object), results, etc.
In short, probes and sensors that cause one subsystem to malfunction based on an event in another module.
Including a bug in another module.
These are all tentacles, reaching into other systems.
Some people seem to have a mistaken belief that "integrated design" is good.
This is false. Good modular design means creating classes or any modules, that can exist independently of other modules.
That have the FEWEST tentacles as possible.
In C++ or any language.
Very very simple.
