EBI Neutrino is a custom-built architecture designed to achieve loose coupling between its components. The system emphasizes modularity and flexibility, enabling easier maintenance, scalability, and the ability to integrate with various subsystems. The architecture aims to provide a high degree of decoupling, ensuring that individual components can function independently without tightly relying on each other.

Key Features

• Loose Coupling: The architecture ensures that components interact with each other through well-defined interfaces, reducing dependencies.
• Modularity: Each subsystem or component is independent, allowing for easy updates and replacements without affecting the whole system.
• Extensibility: The framework is designed for future-proofing, enabling easy additions and adjustments without significant rework.
• Custom Groovy Script Engine: Integrates a Groovy scripting engine, providing dynamic functionality for developers.

The architecture consists of several layers and components that interact seamlessly while maintaining independence. Below is a graphical overview of the system's key components and how they communicate:

In the diagram, the following components are shown:

1. Core Framework: The backbone of the system, managing low-level operations like resource management and component lifecycle.
2. Modular Components: These components provide various functionalities such as data processing, reporting, and user interface management. They are loosely coupled, meaning changes in one component do not require changes in others.
3. Integration Layer: Acts as a bridge between external systems or third-party applications and the internal modules.
4. Custom Script Engine (Groovy): A key component allowing users to write custom scripts that can interact with the system's core and modules, providing extended functionality.
5. UI Layer: Contains custom UI components, including a theme-based design (Neutrino Theme), and handles user interactions.

Interaction Flow

1. External Systemsinteract with the system through theIntegration Layer, which handles communication with the core and other subsystems.
2. Modular Components are designed to handle specific tasks (such as processing data or managing business logic) independently.
3. The Core Framework orchestrates the entire system, ensuring the components interact correctly without tight interdependencies.
4. The Groovy Script Engine allows for custom extensions, empowering developers to build dynamic functionalities as per the system's needs.
5. Finally, the UI Layeris where end-users interact with the system. It provides a sleek, consistent look and feel via theNeutrino Theme.

Benefits of the Architecture

• Flexibility: Components can be modified or replaced without affecting the entire system.
• Scalability: The system can easily scale to accommodate new features or integrate with external systems.
• Maintainability: Loose coupling makes it easier to troubleshoot and maintain the system.
• Customization: Developers can extend the system through custom scripts and UI elements.
