SystemicLogic Research Institute

Is Open Source a natural Evolution or Revolution? The SystemicLogic Open Source practice looks behind the hype of the so-called �open-for-all� phenomenon by providing insight into the open source process, the artefacts from the process itself and the aspects that make open source a viable option for the enterprise.

Topics such as licensing, differences to the proprietary paradigm and process institutionalisation are explored to give insight into decision making processes that can aid organizations in cutting costs and optimise efficiency. You also have access to the software products we've tested.
