development of software through peer input, review, and transparency.
Methods, algorithms, and source code will be made available by
participants to all.
- In the Context of IntelliDrive
Mobility:

- Why? Philosophy: Gather once,
reuse many times
- Cost savings
- Better quality, higher reliability, more flexibility, lower cost.
- Open systems vs. proprietary systems
- How?
- Use of Open Source Licenses – Granting rights in support of a balance
between collaboration and commercialization
- Acquisitions – Identifying requirements and restrictions/limitations in
contract language
- Use of ITS Standards
