Panel Summaries

The goals of these panels was to look forward over the next decade and assess key issues pertaining to next-generation software R&D, such as

  • What important emerging software-based system environments cannot be developed using existing software design and productivity technologies?
  • What promising new technologies are emerging (or should be emerging) to meet these new needs?
  • What existing technologies can be enhanced/extended to address future needs?
  • How can we define an effective cross-agency R&D agenda for software to meet future needs?
