Open Source Software for the Smartgrid: Challenges for Software Safety and Evolution
نویسندگان
چکیده
The growing Smartgrid behind today’s electricity supply introduces many challenges. One aspect is the management of various software that drive these new systems at different domains (generation, transmission, distribution and consumption) and nodes of the Smartgrid network. Managing such concerted, distributed, evolving and heterogenous System of Systems requires a methodical approach to support more standardized processes and products to reach the Smartgrid vision. This paper presents a recent research project focusing on assessing the adoption of OSS for the Smartgrid by investigating its safety and evolution criteria.

Opportunities and Challenges Applying Functional Data Analysis to the Study of Open Source Software Evolution
This paper explores the application of functional data analysis (FDA) as a means to study the dynamics of software evolution in the open source context. Several challenges in analyzing the data from software projects are discussed, an approach to overcoming those challenges is described, and preliminary results from the analysis of a sample of open source software (OSS) projects are provided. T...

We identify challenges that arise during development and evolution of secure Open Architecture (OA) command and control (C2) systems. OA systems are those whose software system components and interconnection mechanisms are either proprietary closed source software offerings with open interfaces (e.g., Application Program Interfaces), open source software, or some architectural configuration of ...
متن کاملLeveraging Open-Source Communities To Improve the Quality & Performance of Open-Source Software
Open-source development processes have emerged as an effective approach to reduce cycle-time and decrease design, implementation, and quality assurance costs for certain types of software, particularly systems infrastructure software, such as operating systems, compilers and language processing tools, editors, and distribution middleware. This paper presents two contributions to the study of op...
متن کاملOpen Source: Concepts, Benefits, and Challenges
With the emergence of free and open source software (F/OSS) projects (e.g. Linux) as serious contenders to well-established proprietary software, advocates of F/OSS are quick to generalize the superiority of this approach to software development. On the other hand, some wellestablished software development firms view F/OSS as a threat and vociferously refute the claims of F/OSS advocates. This ...
