From 9fdb1e0b443e68f67b0978e27ec211bd7aa4cd89 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gerald Kunzmann Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2016 13:55:58 +0100 Subject: Split Shim-layer architecture and Integrated architecture Create two sub-sections in "05 Detailed architecture" for the Shim-layer architecture and the Integrated architecture. Fix several implementations bugs and warnings. Remove numbering of files.
