Open Technology for Software Evolution: Hyperware, Architecture, and Process

Abstract

This effort, sponsored by DARPA's Evolutionary Design of Complex Software (EDCS) Program with additional funding and support from the Air Force Research Laboratory, has focused on several technologies to aid in the effective evolution of complex software-intensive systems, particularly: Open, broad-based hyperprogram and active rationale support; Component-based architecture evolution technology; and Multi-stakeholder process support. Open hyperware, software architecture, and workflow/process technologies are key enablers for supporting the evolution of complex systems, and this effort developed techniques, standards, and tools in each of the above areas.
