    122 \item Even that $T4$ and $T5$ functionalities are complementary, their
    123 developments are independent (thanks to \xcoach internal format).
     122\item Notwithstanding that $T4$ and $T5$ functionalities are complementary,
     123their developments are independent (thanks to the \xcoach internal format).
    124124\item $T3$ slightly depends on $T4$ and $T5$. Indeed, $T3$ may works
    125 without $T4$ and $T5$ if we limit to digital systems without hardware
    126 accellerators.
    127 \item $T3$ strongly impacts $T6$ but, $T3$ does not depend at all on
    128 $T6$. So demonstrators ($T7$) of embedded system would not be impacted if
     125without $T4$ and $T5$ if we limit ourselves to digital systems without hardware
     126accelerators.
     127\item $T3$ strongly impacts $T6$ but $T3$ does not depend at all on
     128$T6$. Hence demonstrators ($T7$) of embedded system would not be impacted if
    129129$T6$ would fail.
