Open-Source-Seminar für Universitätsprojekte

Ziel war, Universitätsangehörigen zu vermitteln, wie Open-Source-Software und Strategien sinnvoll im Sinne unseres Arbeitgebers eingesetzt werden können. Neben den üblichen Grundlagen ging es primär um zwei archetypische “Geschäftsmodelle”, zum einen kommerzielle studentische Start-ups und zum anderen wissenschaftliche Gemeinschaftsprojekte als Beitrag […]Heute haben wir zum ersten Mal ein Seminar zum Thema “Open Source und Universitätsprojekte” gehalten.

We use it, mostly for downloading research talks and other instructional material. Appwork’s offices are located in downtown Fürth, in a beautiful loft, see photo impressions below. Sadly, I lost the main lounge photo, but still, you can […]

Final Thesis: Why and How to Forge Open Source Alliances
Abstract: It is well known that open source software brought changes to the software development domain. It changed the paradigm from payed developers working in offices to people developing geographically separated, including basements, garages, etc. Even the innovation factor of organizations changed to open innovation, intensively including customers or consumers. This work pretends to further analyze […]Abstract: It is well known that open source software brought changes to the software development domain.
