<b>Welcome</b> to the Wiki page of "The Future of Software Development". Not surprisingly, we&#8217;re researching the <i>future of software development</i>. Anyone will agree that software development in general is going to change &#8212; and that it has to, to keep up with technical opportunities and business requirements. But how? And what will be the consequences? One of the main topics will be Open Source software, and we&#8217;re looking at business issues, as well as technical and organizational ones.

== The Team: ==
*Jurjen Borst
*Jelmer Cormont
*Harro van Doorn
*Glenn van der Meijden
*Sanjay Ramautar
 
 
== Research Problems: ==
<b>[[Statistics]]</b> (Sanjay)<br>
*What is the financial status of open- and closed source?
*What is the usage of open- and closed source? (Percentage)
*What are the goals of contributing to open source? (Anti MS, what are the *driving forces?)
*Who are the players and what is their share in this? (Companies, developers, users)
<br>
<b>[[People, Quality, Management, Organization]] </b> (Jurjen)<br>
*How is the structure in a “messy” free community?
*How is the quality assured?
*How is the expertise regarding the complex ICT infrastructure?
*What are the different cultural priorities? (Not reinventing the wheel over and over again)
*How is software logistic distributed?
<br>
<b>[[Technical aspects]]</b> (Glenn)<br>
*Which organizations are/will be influential in software development?
*What are the expected models/standards?
*What are the current standards and what will be the future standards?
*Will there ever be an universal open source standard/
<br>
<b>[[Money]]</b> (Jelmer)<br>
*What is the current business model of closed source software?
*What is the current business model of open source software?
*How are open source developers rewarded?
*What is the relation between open source and licensing?
*What impact will piracy have?
*How will open source be profitable? (Donation/ commercial usage)
<br>
<b>[[Future]]</b> (Harro)<br>
*Influence MS vs. open source? And visa versa.
*What will be the impact on an average scale?
<br>
 
== Research Phase 2: ==
 
Below are some research problems we felt we needed to look into some more:
 
[[Software Patents]]
*[http://webshop.ffii.org/ Example of patents used in a webshop]
*[http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/nl/m/intro/index.html Dutch Anti Software Patents Site]
*[http://petition.eurolinux.org/index_html?LANG=en Petition against patents]
*[http://www.base.com/software-patents/examples.html List of nonsense patents in software]
 
[[Speed and costs of Software Development]]
 
[http://img.cmpnet.com/commsdesign/2004/doublewide-table1.jpg If you would spend less time, how much wil that save?]
 
Saving costs is very important! Other option to cut costs is different development methods:
*Self writing code
*[http://www.jimhighsmith.com/articles/IEEEArticle1Final..pdf Agile Programming]
 
<b>Number crunching</b><br>
*[http://www.dwheeler.com/oss_fs_why.html The use of open source]
*[http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=51201599 More numbers]
Interesting:
*IT departments
**2% only open source
**38% only closed source
**35% mixed open and closed use
 
Problem: TCO of Linux is 11% higher than windows
[http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/qna/0,289202,sid39_gci883142,00.html TCO]
 
Advice on how to beat microsoft: let the techies start developing usefull stuf in stead of cool stuf!
[http://www.intellectualconservative.com/article2355.html Advice]
 
Linux development: Letting MS Office work ON linux! Will this be a possible scenario maybe?
Not only microsoft is flirting with open source, but linux flirting with microsoft?
 
As more and more companys are afraid to step Completely into linux.. would this be a logical thing? a more mixture of things? That means MS could come up with a emulator to run open source linux based software! Interesting possibility!

The FUTURE OF SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT : SEVEN IMPORTANT TRENDS!!
 
http://infosecuritymag.techtarget.com/ss/0,295796,sid6_iss366_art684,00.html
 
 
uit een interview over outsourcen naar india:
 
 
Builder.com: Let's move on to the issue of documentation. Do you foresee any obstacles to repurposing code
 
 
 
developed overseas, considering that some of the documentation may not be in English?
 
 
Kevin: Documentation? We don't need no stinkin' documentation!
 
 
[Laughter]
 
 
hele interview: ook interessant voor ons!:
 
http://builder.com.com/5100-6375-1054382.html
 
 
outscourcing stats:
 
http://www.outsource2india.com/why_india/articles/outsourcing_history.asp
 
 
Trends in stadards design:
 
http://www.theopensourcery.com/wordp1/index.php?p=179
 
 
Heel belanrgijk in het belang van de toekomst security
 
open source is said to be veiliger omdat bugs eerder aan het licht komen met eerdere patches!
 
 
Wij vonden het heeeel moelijk/onmogelijk om hardware technische links te leggen met ontwikkelingen
 
 
ZOals de link tussen self generating code en outsourcen naar india.. je moet er maar opkomen. WIj zijn dat dus
 
 
 
niet, echter hebben wij veel informatie gevonden, en wij hopen dat jullie hier wat mee kunnen!
 
 
Belangrijkste issue;'s zullen zijn:
 
- Security
 
- Cost Effectiveness
 
- Speed of programming
 
 
misschien een link die wij bedachten
 
Embedded systems are hype, in mobieltjes zitten ze, in ipods en dergelijke.
 
Embedded systems zijn perfect geschikt voor hackers om mee te spelen en te proberen, het nodigt uit!
 
Dus in de toekomst misschien daardoor veel meer vrijheid, kies je eigen OS op een mobieljte of PDA omdat
 
 
 
iedereen er achter komt dat er meer opties zijn dan Palm OS op je palm machine....
 
Gaat palm dit aproven of keihard tegen vechten? MS is daar ook ernstig mee bezig. zoals met de xbox
 
 
ander idee
 
MS vecht maar tegen het linux gebruikt op de xbox, moeten ze dat niet vrijgeven of reguleren? omdat je het toch
 
 
 
niet tegenhoud? Hackers zijn minstens net zo slim als de developers, suply/demand cocaine.. system past zich
 
 
 
aan.
 
 
distributed computing. is heel een een communicty ding. heeft 2 putnen
 
- meer communicity feeling in open source, grotere kans dat meer mensen alles met elkaar willen delen in een
 
 
 
grid waardoor je 2x zo hard kan gamen, en helemaal geen last heb. en soms geef je veel energie weg als je toch
 
 
 
alleen word gebruikt
 
- dit maakt eigenlijk ENORME virussen mogelijk, virussen met de rekenkracht van 10000 pc's!!!!
 
Denial of Service attacks
 
== System's Diagram: ==
This is the initial system's diagram we created during the lesson on March 17th:
