4. http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2012/nsf12113/nsf12113.pdf Software needs to transition from a set of individual research projects to a production infrastructure. …and recognizing that the complexity of software has historically been underappreciated. The NSF vision is to facilitate software infrastructure that works easily at scale, encourages reuse, and efficiently promotes innovation while retaining reliability. High-level abstractions and frameworks that promote code reuse and sharing, model extensibility and interoperability, and simplify domain specific programming while achieving high performance. Understanding issues that prevent reuse; and incentivizing reuse in the development process. Widespread adoption of open source models for software development and dissemination that include high quality documentation and accepted engineering practices, leading to software that is accessible, understandable and reusable.
