Abstract

Throughout the past five years, Hewlett-Packard Company's R&D entities in the Networked Systems Sector (Cupertino) have engaged in the systematic implementation of software engineering processes, methods, and tools. The goal: improve software products delivered to HP customers. This effort, led by the Technology Transfer section (TX), has resulted in improvements for several projects in the areas of time-to-market, product quality, and reduced development costs. This paper presents a summary of TX's approach to the design, development, and implementation of a technology transfer process.
