Mancoosi: research topics in component-based software
Free and Open Source Software distributions are a particularly interesting
instance of component-based software, due to their distributed development
mode, their importance for today's computing infrastructure, and to their
size. Both the construction of a coherent collection of components, and
the maintenance of software installations based on these, raise difficult
problems for distribution editors and system administrators: Distributions
evolve rapidly by integrating new versions of software packages that are
independently developed. System upgrades may proceed on different paths
depending on the current state of a system and the available software
packages, and system administrators are faced with choices of upgrade
paths, and possibly with failing upgrades.
The ongoing Mancoosi project (Managing the Complexity of the Open Source
Infrastructure) aims to solve some of these problems. In this talk we will
describe past and ongoing work in the context of Mancoosi and its
predecessor project EDOS, as well as some possible future research
directions.
