<blockquote>
Funding: ''NABIIT, research council for nano-, bio- and information technologies, Danish government''<br/>
Duration: January 2006 - December 2009<br/>
Abstract: Software products such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, game engines, and simulation software, are often built around a software kernel that encapsulates and provides core functionality. Specific software products are then developed by deploying and adapting this kernel, and can be further configured and customised. This project aims to develop methods and technologies for the design and implementation of evolvable software products based on software kernels. The project investigates software engineering techniques to achieve reliable and evolvable software products, and explores how software is created and maintained on a long term basis.
