Thesis chapter 2.5: Project goals


This research project started with the ambition to create opportunities provided by an R&D organisation in terms of new ways-of-working, new architectures, and possibly supporting new ecosystems. These opportunities could enable new business models for OEMs delivering mass-produced embedded systems.

This lead to three goals for an original equipment manufacturer aspiring to be world leading in software development:
  1. Minimise leadtime from idea to implementation of new software features.
  2. The ability to frequently deliver new software features to end customers
  3. Decoupling of software development from hardware and mechanical development, both in time and by the design dependencies
