11. 8 June, 2003JB/11 SW Productivity Gap Source: Eureka/ITEA

12. 8 June, 2003JB/12 Tool and Packaged SW weak (-) OS, PC platform, standards and interoperability dominated by US industry (-) 70% SW development within secondary industry (telecom, automotive, aerospace, engineering, …) (!) Traditionally strong academic research, but may be declining (+/-) Strong Open Source Community (+) Emerging market for value added services (mobile) (+) European Software industry - status

13. 8 June, 2003JB/13 Use Europe’s industrial strength in telecom, automotive, aircraft, consumer electronics, chemicals, etc. RTD actions (i.p. IP) aim at building collaboration between: –large industrial user/developers –software (tool, COTS, component, service) vendors –supported by academic research, leading to strong (often sectorial) industrial networks Foundational research only through STREPs and CAs Where appropriate, complementarity and co-operation with work under EUREKA/ITEA Strategy for competitiveness (1)

14. 8 June, 2003JB/14 Open Source Software To support open standards, formats and platforms To stimulate competition in the software industry To accelerate development of eGovernment services To stimulate open discussion and variety in the Information Society Strategy for Competitiveness (2)

15. 8 June, 2003JB/15 A Strategic Objective in IST for RTD in Software and Service technologies Building open development and run-time environments for software and services (WP 2.3.2.3) –Use of European industrial strength and OSS community in an RTD effort to create: Platforms of methods, tools and middleware for SW production Which are modular and open to extension to specific domains Covering all phases of SW life-cycle Applicable to broad classes of software systems and services –Keep support to longer-term foundational research Strategy for competitiveness (3)

16. 8 June, 2003JB/16 Research Focus High level methods, esp. for early development phases, for system design and integration (MDA), addressing non-functional aspects, autonomy, composability and distribution Open, Modular and Customisable development environments supporting evolving processes, consistency and traceability Light methodologies, esp. for co-operative and distributed development Open platforms, middleware and languages for modeling, interoperability, composability and integration of distributed SW systems (incl. P2P, agents, dynamic adaptability and evolvability) Strategy for competitiveness (4)

17. 8 June, 2003JB/17 Services everywhere Middleware for services interoperability Service creation environment Tools for service development Software as a service (“software on command”, application services) Strategy for competitiveness (5)
