Information Society Technologiesin the 6th Framework ProgrammeIST Work Programme 2005-2006S.O. 2.5.5 Software and Services
Overall context and objectives • Pervasiveness of SW, SW is becoming a key to competitiveness • Need to advance capabilities to engineer and manage Software systems, e-services, … • Main technical issues: • Open and interoperable platforms • Methodologies, tools • Middleware • Standards
Focus • New features for software and services development (AmI context): • Dynamic composability and adaptability • Context awareness, autonomy • Semantic interoperability [IP, NoE, STREP] • Complex systems: principles, methodologies and tools for development, simulation and management [IP, STREP]
Focus (continued) • Free/open source Software: technologies for supporting development, deployment, evolution, etc. [IP, STREP] • Software systems: • Foundational and applied research addressing properties like self-adaptability, flexibility, robustness, evolvability • Emphasis on high-level methods and concepts (early phases of software life-cycle), system integration and testing, agile methodologies and distributed development, end-user development [NoE, STREP]
Focus (continued) • Support actions: reduce fragmentation of efforts, build synergies • Evolution of software industry (esp. towards services) • Drafting strategies and roadmaps [SSA, CA]
