Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 2559))

Abstract

This paper addresses the ongoing inventory activities within the ITEA MOOSE project. The inventory result will be a complete view on the application of methods, techniques and tools for software production within some of the leading European industrial companies within the embedded system field, such as Philips, Océ, ASML and Nokia. The current results are remarkable, as they confirm the cautiousness of industry to adopt recent state of the art development technologies, even as the production of in-time reliable software products becomes more and more an unreachable target.
