signalsbased
Signalsbased is a term used in software engineering to describe architectures or programming styles that rely primarily on signals as the means of communication between components. In a signalsbased design, components interact by emitting signals that are observed by listeners or handlers, rather than invoking methods directly. This approach emphasizes loose coupling, modularization, and clear separation of concerns, and it can support both synchronous and asynchronous operation.
The concept is closely related to established ideas such as event-driven programming, the observer pattern, and
Key characteristics include decoupled producers and consumers, a mechanism for subscribing to and filtering relevant signals,
Benefits include improved modularity, testability, scalability, and the ability to evolve system behavior by reconfiguring signal
Signalsbased is commonly applied in UI frameworks, robotics, and event-driven or microservices architectures, where asynchronous messaging
