• The Midas Philosophy:
    • More than just a "framework," Midas is a philosophy for solving problems.
      • Open-source mentality that fosters sharing of code.
        • A framework to provide a common backbone for development.
        • A common mechanism for sharing "user contributed" code.
        • A "feel free to copy/paste" mentality.
      • Support for rapid prototyping and analysis.
        • A domain-specific scripting/macro language.
        • An interactive shell to allows users to "play with stuff" (e.g. analyze, decompose, and solve their domain problems.)
      • Focused on high-performance DSP.
        • Support for specialized DSP hardware.
    • Although the frameworks have evolved over time, the core philosophy remains the same.
