(EDT), ISBN 178195562X, ISBN-13 9781781955628, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Jansen and Brinkkemper (both professors of Organization and Information management at Utrecht University), and Cusumano (MIT Sloan School of Management) present here a series of essays designed to define the new field of software ecosystems. The contributors have a wide variety of backgrounds from computer science to information management. The field has come into being as software increasingly relies on other software to accomplish its goals. Thus these inter-program relationships can be studied much like natural ecosystems and making use of many of the same concepts and terms. The first two of th's three sections concern topics like varied license terms in a software ecosystem, the use of open source and proprietary software, mobile platform architectures, and quality review of proposed extensions to existing software ecosystems. The third section is devoted to more detailed analysis and visualization of specific software ecosystems and involves several case studies with an emphasis on quantitative metrics. Concepts throughout th are well illustrated, particularly in section 3, with b&w graphs and diagrams. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
